NewsUSA) – Adding new carpet is an easy way to rejuvenate the look and feel of any room in
your home. But when you own pets, finding a quality carpet that is easy to maintain can be a tiring task.
\”If you\’re a pet owner, it\’s important to find carpeting that can withstand the toll pets can dish out on flooring,\” says carpet expert David Duncan of Mohawk Flooring, a carpeting brand that has produced SmartStrand — a soil- and stain-resistant carpeting that has successfully taken on zoo animals, messy kids and a cross-country tour of squirts and spills.
Here are some tips:
Function: What is the room used for? For high-traffic areas, such as a family room, den or hallway, consider carpeting with built-in triexta fibers — exclusive to Mohawk Flooring — that are stain- and soil-resistant. A dining room carpet should be stain-resistant and easy to clean as well. Carpets with chemically applied stain protection treatments can lose their stain and soil resistance over time. Also consider the environment by choosing carpeting made in part with plant-based materials.
