Best
Carpet Choice for Homeowners
You need to arm yourself with
key information
that will help you make the right choices for carpet, padding and
installation. Buying
the right grade of carpet can be very confusing and it takes considerable time
and effort.
Select the wrong grade of carpet or padding and you stand to lose hundreds or even
thousands of dollars when it wear out too quickly. So don't think you can just head out this weekend
visit a couple of carpet retailers and
get the job done in a couple of hours.
Your
carpet buying journey should start by doing some research and answering some
hard questions, like "how long do you want your new carpet to
last?" and "what carpet style will best serve my needs and
goals?"
Carpet
Confusion - Don't Get Stressed Out!
Buying carpet is supposed to be fun
and exciting but it does require that you do your homework. I suggest you
start by taking my free Carpet
Foot-Traffic Test to see what grade of carpet can best serve your needs
and goals. It only takes a minute to determine what level of foot
traffic you have in your home.
Don't
be in a hurry, take your time and make sure you think about each choice
carefully. From carpet styles, patterns, color and quality, each and every
decision you make is important and deserves substantial forethought and
careful consideration.
Some
folks take several months to choose the right carpet and padding for their
home. Take several carpet samples home and consider them carefully. Ask for
all the carpet specifications from the dealer and compare various carpets
side by side in the comfort of your home. Don't be pressured
to buy today by any salesperson. Learn

What
Does Unbiased Carpet Information really mean?
There
are tons of useless carpet websites that claim to offer unbiased carpet
information, but the truth is, they are just trying to sell carpet and
hope to make a huge profit from your carpet purchase. They will tell you
anything to get you to buy from their sources. That's just plain wrong!

5
Keys To Carpet Buying Success
1. Obtaining proper measurements
saves you money.
Having the correct measurements for
your home could save you plenty, not to mention the headaches that could be
caused from under-measuring. My book reveals the tricks to getting your home
measured right. In fact, I even show you how to measure your home yourself!
2. Product knowledge gives you
power to choose wisely.
Selecting the wrong carpet fiber is
worst mistake you can make! Learn the truth about carpet fibers and carpet
styles in my book. The more you know the better choices you will make. Beware of
information obtained from websites that want to sell you carpet.
3. A wise shopper always gets
several estimates.
Getting several estimates is just
plain smart. Not only can you make your final choice by choosing the best deal
offered for similar products, it also gives you the chance to see who is fair
and who is not. My book reveals where and how to quickly comparison shop to
find the best deals.
Finding a qualified carpet installer
is tougher than you might think. Carpets installed poorly will develop wrinkles
and can cut the life expectancy in half! You must have your carpet installed
properly if you expect it to last. Learn how to find a qualified installer in my
book!
5. Proper maintenance insures longevity.
Take proper care of your carpet and it will serve
you well for years to come. If you don't clean your carpets correctly you could
easily ruin them. In my book I reveal the truth about carpet care and what you
need to know about carpet cleaning!
It's
getting hard to find a reputable carpet dealer these days! That's why I've
created a special hand-picked list of over 400 locally owned Carpet Dealers
who offer Free estimates, fair prices, knowledgeable staff, honest measuring
and qualified installers, And my personal recommendation! It doesn't get any
better than that!
