The Benefits of Carpet
There
are several benefits to purchasing carpet. If you’ve had carpet in your house before you may have noticed
the benefits, but if you’re new to carpet you may want to learn several benefits before
purchasing. Benefits include; comfort, beauty, insulation, reduces noise level, safety, and reduced
maintenance.
The first benefit of carpet would definitely be
comfort. After a long day at work coming home to rest is definitely needed. Carpet provides comfort to go
barefoot, relax, and distress after a long day. People find comfort to be the biggest benefit to the
flooring. After standing on hard floors all day, softness under your feet can be quite
rewarding.
Another benefit to carpet would be beauty. Carpet adds
character and distinctive beauty to any home. Carpet can bring out the beauty in every piece of furniture
and well as soft neutral colors to extremely vibrant colors. It also is a consumer’s attitude to express
their personality from the floor up. Beauty is a very integral part to purchasing carpet.
Besides beauty another benefit to carpet is
insulation. Insulation is an important tool in a consumer’s home, from keeping the electric bill down to
providing a warm and cool atmosphere all year long. Carpet has been proven to pay for itself in nine years
in energy savings, so besides being beautiful consumers are also saving money.
If you are living in a house with small children, reducing the
noise level may be the best benefit of purchasing carpet. Carpet will absorb airborne noise better than any
other flooring material on the market. Carpet is also the only flooring product that doubles as an
acoustical product. By reducing the noise level you can create a more comfortable living environment for
the whole family.
Safety is another added benefit to purchasing carpet. Carpet
can serve as a prevention tool to help reduce the amount of falls or keep falls from happening all
together. All other flooring materials will retain water or any slippery substance on the top, while carpet
can absorb the substance and keep falls from occurring. However, if a fall were to happen, carpet can help
reduce the amount of injury by adding cushion to soften the fall.
Reduced maintenance can definitely be an added benefit to making
an investment in carpet. Besides the occasional vacuum to keep floors looking attractive, the only other
cleaning carpet will need is an occasional deep cleaning. Unlike carpet, hardwood floors need regularly
maintenance such as mopping and sweeping to keep from tracking soil and dirt through the area.
There are definitely several benefits to purchasing carpet. Beauty, comfort, safety, reducing noise levels, and
insulation are only a few. Carpet will add value to your home and keep it looking beautiful!
From one hardwood floor to another
Well, howdy folks. Hope this has been a
wonderful day for you all and that you enjoyed looking thru all the wonderful hardwood flooring samples we have
on display. How bout that brazilian cherry wood or the teak? Beautiful don’t you think. Hardwood flooring has
come a long, long way since the days of just your regular old pine and oaks. And each wood has a personality all
its own…which leads us back into our continuing saga of, “If these floors could talk.’’ Last week we listened in
on some of the different floors sharing their histories and anecdotes with each other, notably the floor from
the ship of the Santa Maria, Christopher Columbus’s ship, and the floor
from the Dodge City saloon. This week we are going to interview the floor
from the Grand Ole’ Opry” in NashvilleTennessee. Let’s listen in on the interview…

Well, howdyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!! I say it like
that in memory of my dear friend Minnie Pearl who always delicately walked across my stage when she would open
the shows, wearing her soft soled mary janes….bless her soul….For someone who sure could holler, she sure did
pittypatt along as she walked. Not so for everyone though. Now ole’ Grandpa Jones, God rest the mans soul , sure
could strum a banjo and sing but he was the worst scruffer, scruffing along wearing those old steel toed
clodhoppers that just raked against my nerves like fingernails on a chalkboard., or rather a washboard every
time he stomped his feet.
Now our Miss Patsy, well when she would
sing you could just feel the emotion and vibrations flowing thru your grains…“Silky smooth’’ as she would often
say….But now, every now and then those high fallooting Stilletto heels she took to wearing could rub me the
wrong way. But, it was a small price to pay to get to hear that angelic voice two or three times a week whenever
she wasn’t on the road…Lord, that girl sure lived fast, and went on to her reward just as fast! One of those
“shooting stars” I reckon.

Then there was Hank….dear ole’ Hank, with
his white snakeskin cowboy boots and that lonesome yodel in his voice….Sometimes some of my planks would just go
to sweating with tears when he would ball out some of those songs, like Your Cheatin’ Heart, and I’m so lonesome
I could cry...Lord, what a songwriter and poet….Another shooting star that just seemed to blaze across the sky
and then disappear over the horizon. Like to broke my heart when they kicked him off the opry…..so if’n you’re
looking for hardwood flooring Atlanta then you’ve come to the right
spot.
So, yes sir, I sure do have some
awesome memories to cling to….Porter, Faron, and Waylon…and Johnny Cash….the Man in Black…..God rest them all, and
hey by the way, while you’re standing there would you push J4 on the jukebox….I sure could listen to some Loretta
and Conway…..Yall come back now, ya’ hear!!!
