What is the lifespan of carpeting?


Lifespan is a vital feature to consider, no matter what floor covering you consider for your floors. If you are looking into a carpeted floor covering, lifespans will vary, and we would like to tell you more about that in today’s post.

Your carpeting can last a long while


The lifespan you receive from your carpeting will significantly depend upon the specific options you choose relating to durability and performance. The higher quality you demand from your products, the longer the lifespan you will receive.

For instance, if you know you will be replacing your flooring soon, a cost-effective, budget product could last between three and five years. These floors are often placed in apartments or offices, where the flooring turn-over rate is high.

However, if you are looking for an attractive option for a formal space in your home, and you expect it to last a good while, you will find options that could give you up to 20 years or more of a useful lifespan. And it all starts with a great fiber.

Both nylon and polyester are hardy, durable fibers that resist stains and wear more than many other fibers. But you can also ask about added benefits such as built-in stain protection, which not only makes your floors look better, but it also makes them easier to clean, whether daily or professionally.
