Choosing the carpet type for your home? Choosing a carpet type can be challenging, with a number of things which must be considered. Fortunately, Joe Walker’s Flooring have the tips to help you in choosing the carpet type best suited for your home.
Woven Vs Tufted
When it comes to choosing the carpet type for your home, you first need to consider whether woven or tufted carpet is most suitable. Tufted carpet is incredibly popular due to its springy nature as well as being available in a range of colours and materials. Woven carpets tend to be very sturdy, however, woven carpets are not suitable if you have pets as their claws can get caught in the loops.
Carpet Pile
Carpet pile must also be considered when choosing the carpet type for your home. Types of carpet pile include:
- Twist Pile
- Cut Pile
- Loop Pile
- Velvet
When it comes to choosing the best type of pile type, it tends to depend on a number of factors, such as the room where the carpet will be used and your lifestyle. These factors will have an impact on which pile type is best suited for your home.

Pile Fibre
