As we cruise towards the end of the year, thoughts inevitably (and scarily!) turn to Christmas. We’re already chock full of bookings for carpet and flooring fitting in the run up to the festive period so if you’re hoping to spruce up your home before your Christmas visitors descend, it’s time to act!
Long Pile Carpet
Need to replace your carpet before the end of the year? Many of our consumer decisions are now rightly based on our environmental impact. With this in mind, and with the potential of reducing energy bills, you may wish to consider a carpet with longer pile to keep your home warmer. Nowadays longer pile does not mean that the carpet will just become flattened more quickly, as it did in the past. New technology has resulted in a sturdier pile that provides better insulation and lasts longer, so you can keep your home cosy for longer, without the visual appeal of the carpet diminishing as quickly.
Bright Ideas For Children’s Rooms
Looking for a fun and practical Christmas gift idea? If you’ve got young football fanatics in the house, and want an alternative Christmas present this year, how about kitting them out with a fantastic football themed carpet for their bedroom? If football is not their thing, ask us about other ideas for children’s bedrooms. We’ll help you find something that’s both practical (keeping you happy) and fun (keeping the kids happy)!
From Neutral to Natural
Another new development in carpet trends is the move towards soft colours such as blues, pinks and greens. If you’d like to move on from the neutral beiges so many of us have in our homes, these colours can really add to a room’s colour scheme, while remaining subtle, tasteful and complementary to your decor.
