Types of Carpets Available to Carrollton Homeowners

Generally speaking, there are two or three types of carpet. First, there is cut pile carpet. Cut pile refers to the fact that the carpet fibers are cut evenly and are not woven back into the mat of the carpet. Cut pile comes in a number of style options including saxony, textured, and frieze.

Saxony carpet is very dense and very popular. When smooth finished, it is referred to as plush carpet. In contrast, textured cut pile is not as dense as saxony, but it still has a very soft feel. Textured carpet also has a more casual look that is perfect for any room. As such, it is the most popular carpet option. Frieze carpets are shorter and therefore more durable; as such, it is a great option for high traffic areas and commercial settings.

The other major type of carpet is loop pile. In loop pile, the carpet fibers are not cut; rather, they are continuously looped up and under the carpet matting. As such, loop pile carpet is very durable and long lasting. Broadly, loop pile comes in two styles: berber and level loop.
