Stair Carpet

Covering stairs in carpeting is something many home owners consider. In addition to the obvious noise reduction, it helps make going up and down the stairs safer, preventing slips and falls. It also helps to cushion a fall, if one were to ever happen.

Your stairs tend to be higher traffic areas, so it is important to select a durable and stain resistant material for your stairs. You will also want to consider a color that will help mask stains when they occur.

Let the experts at Abbey Carpet & Floor help you select the best carpet for your stairs.

Living Room Carpet

Your living room needs a new look, but you want a carpet that looks great, feels great, and stands the test of time. Let the team here at Abbey Carpet & Floor show you our exclusive collection of designer carpets from the top brands.

If you are looking to replace your current living room floor with wall-to-wall carpeting, you will need to decide what material, pile, length, and padding is right for you. We provide FREE in-home estimates, and do all of the installation ourselves.

If you are happy with the hardwood, laminate, tile, or vinyl that is already in your living room and just want to make the area a little warmer, an area rug may be a great option for you!

Bedroom Carpet

When selecting bedroom carpeting, the most common consideration is how it feels on your bare feet. When you wake up in the morning, you want to roll out of bed and feel a soft, warm, luxurious material. This is why many people decide to splurge on wool carpeting in their bedroom rather than Nylon or Polyester, which are also great options.
