Purchasing a new carpet for your home is exciting! There are plenty of styles, colors, and textures to choose from at a variety of stores that specialize in carpets and carpet installation. Try to approach this as an adventure and not as a chore. Be grateful that you are about to bring a shade of color into your home that will enhance your well being! Now, before you head to the store, consider these questions before you shop.
Questions to Consider Before Shopping for a New Carpet
1. How much money can I spend? This is important to figure out before you shop. Knowing your budget will help you narrow your options down and aid the salesperson who may assist you.
2. Where will the new carpet go? You need to know the room or rooms you will be carpeting before you shop so that you will be able to consider wise choices for heavy traffic areas. This will also help you in matching a carpet with your room décor.
3. What color am I gravitating towards? What color do I really want? Keep this in mind because you might instinctively have a feel for what you want. You may change your mind when you see the carpet selection at the store; but, knowing what you feel drawn to is a step in the right direction!
What to Bring When You Are Carpet Shopping
1. Measurements of the room or rooms that will be carpeted. Even though you probably will not be purchasing a carpet you first time out shopping for one, knowing the measurements will help the sales assistant give you an accurate estimate on a carpet.
2. A photo (s) of the room or rooms that you are going to purchase carpeting for. This will help you when/if you become overwhelmed at the store and can not remember the exact shade of an important part of your room décor.
