What to Consider When Choosing Carpet for a Family Room

Like the kitchen, your family room serves as a central social area of your home—it's usually a “meeting place” where family members gather to talk, play, or just relax. The nature of the family room (or the great room in some homes) is such that the floor is of more importance that it is in other rooms—young kids may play on the floor, often with their parents; teens may sprawl across the floor to watch movies or play video games; infants may crawl across the family room floor and take their first falls there while learning to walk. So it's quite important that a family room floor be soft, comfortable, and cozy. Even in homes floored mostly with hardwood or tile, the family room often receives carpeting—and usually carpeting of the best type.

Choosing carpet for the stairs can be a bit more difficult than choosing carpet for other areas of the home. This is because, in addition to having to decide on carpet style and color, the carpet has to be of appropriate durability and thickness to be installed on the stair. Of course, it also has to look good as it wraps around the edge of the stair, and through the railing posts, if any.

At the same time, there are inherent properties that belong to real wood flooring, that no manufacturing process can fully mimic.
