Carpet is always the last thing installed in the home. By the time the Contractor gets around to purchasing it he is usually over budget and is looking for a way to maintain his profit margin. His carpet dealer is all too willing to sell him a polyester product with an inadequate pad that will look decent for about as long as the 12 month warranty lasts. I go into relatively new homes every day and find that the carpet is already packed down and worn out. This is very sad, because it didn't have to be that way. For just a few dollars more the carpet could have been enjoyed for 10 years or so.

Dispite the bad experiences many customers are having, there are some real advantages in choosing carpet as a floorcovering:

Carpet makes a home more comfortable; this becomes even more important as we get older.
Compared to tile and wood, a good carpet costs less than half as much to purchase, install, and maintain.
Floor Coverings should be replaced every 10 years or so allowing the customer to take advantage of new industry innovations and fashions.

Tile is very costly, permanent, and often dates the house.
Wood costs about twice as much as carpet and requires periodic expensive refinishing.

Carpet Direct features STAINMASTER™ Carpet and our exclusive "Super Half" Cushion. Our Pad comes standard with every order and is designed to maximize foot comfort. If the customer takes care of a good quality STAINMASTER™ Carpet he should enjoy it for 10 years or so. Best of all, with Carpet Direct it doesn't cost that much more than the dealer charged for his Polyester/ junk pad system.
