There is no doubt that carpet equals comfort under foot. In the new year, carpet tile will continue to gain ground on broadloom carpet and is quickly bridging a gap between wall-to-wall installations and hard surface options. Though hitting a more expensive price point, manufacturers are selling more than ever. If you’re looking to give more depth and texture to your install, carpet tile may be an option. Broadloom carpet is ideal for large area patterns and areas that can’t show seams, but carpet tile has come a long way in the design arena. Tiles come in different shapes and sizes and can be installed on a quarter turn, in multiple colors to create a parquet look, offset with borders, or in random patterns. There will be plenty of situations where broadloom carpet is the flooring of choice, but it may be worth exploring carpet tile for one of your future installations.
