Let’s talk LVT! Let’s Talk COREtec!

Posted on 15 Jul 2020 by The Carpet House, Inc.

COREtec is the original!

COREtec is the original floor that created the LVT category with its patented WPC core technology that was the first 100% waterproof, kidproof, petproof floor. COREtec is available in over 100 realistic wood looks, in a variety of sizes. Styling innovations such as Embossed In Register technology and enhanced bevels add to the beauty while an attached cork backing makes these floors warmer, quieter and softer underfoot. COREtec floors are GREENGUARD GOLD certified for indoor air quality and backedby a lifetime limited residential warranty.

Simple, elegant and easy to clean!

Coretec Oneplus is regularly $5.69.

Currently on sale for $ 3.99 sf.

Coretec Plus in on Sale for $4.29 sf

COREtec Plus floors are 100% waterproof, and can be installed in wet areas without swelling or warping when exposed to water. These floors do not require acclimation and can be floated over most existing hard floor surfaces or substrate without the unwanted telegraphing common in other locking or glue-down LVP products.

Coretec Plux XL is on sale for $5.79 sf

COREtec Plus XL LVT is inert and dimensionally stable, which means it won’t change size due to heat or humidity under normal conditions and never needs expansion strips in large rooms. An attached cork underlayment results in a quieter, warmer vinyl floor that is naturally resistant to odor causing mold and mildew. COREtec Plus XL is also GREENGUARD GOLD Certified for Indoor Air Quality. That is a huge win, win!

Stop in our showroom located on historic downtown Morrison to see our selection of COREtec LVT flooring!

2019 Take Notice Trends!

Posted on 7 Jan 20197 Jan 2019 by The Carpet House, Inc.

2019 has a lot going for it!

So we thought it would be fun to give you our top 5 trends that make 2019 the year for new flooring!!

Take Notice Trend #1: BUY U.S.A. MADE!

Did you know?

Our Carpeting is made right here in the U.S.A.!

That is probably why carpeting is still the #1 choice for flooring!

Our Tarkett Permastone Line is made in Florence, Alabama

(read more about it here)

Take Notice Trend #2: Smooth is classic but 2019 is all about TEXTURE!!

From wire brushed, distressed and hand-scraped…..texture is where it is at!

Beautiful Tarkett Laminate in a distressed or hand-scraped look is definitely the trend for this year or maybe you’re looking for hardwood?

Well, we have you covered!

Check out Anderson Hardwood’s Colonial Manor – beautiful and durable.

Take Notice Trend #3 – Coastal Decor!

One color that is taking 2019 in waves is green!

From Aegean Teal to Fort Pierce Green…..These soft coastal colors can add a splash!

Keep it simple! From a simple throw blanket to some soft green pillows….the coastal trend is an easy way to update any space!

Looking for inspiration? Check out The Creativity Exchange for ideas!

Take Notice Trend #4 – Herringbone!

LVT reigned supreme in 2018 and while this excellent product is still going strong in 2019….the idea of laying has been tweaked a bit!

And if vinyl flooring is more your style – especially since it is so easy to clean and incredibly affordable – IVC has some amazing Herringbone Styles to choose from!

Oooo….how about an updated back splash in a beautiful Herringbone Pattern?

Take Notice Trend #5 – Eco Friendly Flooring!

Reclaim Bathroom DIY IDEAS that we LOVE!!

Posted on 11 Sep 201516 Sep 2015 by The Carpet House, Inc.

Take an old pallet and use them to create a beautiful focus wall!! What a fantastic way to bring that WOW factor to a half bath.

Vintage is awesome and this idea has my wheels spinning. Taking a vintage bicycle and upcycling it into a vanity is stunning….and take a look at how they used the bicycle basket. ❤

I am a huge fan of antique furniture, so this idea of using a side table as a vanity is love at first sight!

The key to a beautiful bathroom is first impressions and this reclaimed barn door has it all! BEAUTIFUL!!

Last but not least, little touches like this make reclaimed DIY projects so much fun! How can you resist such a neat idea?!?

In stock products that don’t skimp on style!

Posted on 10 Sep 201511 Sep 2015 by The Carpet House, Inc.

Big box stores….they have a lot! But you know what they don’t have? Us!!
Our staff at The Carpet House is amazing.
Jerry and Carol have been in the flooring business for over 40 years. If you have a flooring problem or question, chances are they have probably already answered it and know how to help! Their two daughters, Stephanie and Anne have been in flooring industry since they were children. Anne has her interior design certificate and is on top of all the largest trends!
We can’t forget about Melanie and Kim! Kim is fantastic at helping you find just then right flooring for your home. And Mel!! Mel is fantastic, not only is she one of the nicest people God ever created but she knows a lot about flooring and cleaning up after Basset Hounds! Lol!!

Besides our knowledgable and awesome staff, we also carry a wide selection of in stock flooring.
VINYL, CERAMIC, CARPET and some LAMINATE.
We currently have two styles of in stock vinyl!

Both of these are priced at $9.99 yd. THATS $1.11 sf!
(Big box store prices with knowledgable staff and quality service)

Our in stock carpets include this flecked frieze. This Carpet is a nice way to spruce up a spare bedroom or family room. Priced at $14.99 yd it is a great deal!!

ALSO DID YOU KNOW? We offer free measures and estimates! No cost to you. Just give us a call at 815-772-8846 to get an idea how much it would be to replace that old carpet! Might be less than you think.

Out of the box floors that will either make you freak, faint or say “fabulous”!

Posted on 27 Aug 201528 Aug 2015 by The Carpet House, Inc.

An unusual floor to say the least but the calming effect is astounding!

Next we go from astounding to “ouch.” This DIY idea is different. Breaking up mirrors then pouring a clear epoxy over them followed up with a buff to finish the effect.

This DIY floor is for those looking to bring a unique touch of nature to a small space!

This stairway & entry is certainly not for the green DIY weekend warrior. Beautiful, elegant and awe inspiring, this custom flooring is one of my favorite!

Last but not least….”a penny for your thoughts?” This polished penny flooring has created quite the buzz!

Stairway ideas that WOW!!

Posted on 7 Aug 20157 Aug 2015 by The Carpet House, Inc.

Stairways!!!
They can be a source of inspiration or decorating frustration. So we thought a few ideas might help turn that source of creative conundrum into a fountain of “I can totally do this!”

First: Does your family have a special saying, quote or scripture that exemplifies your family or home? Why not use those risers to inspire and express it!

BEAUTIFUL!!

Second source of inspiration: Rustic is fabulous! Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. Its amazing what a touch of reclaimed wood can do to a dead space! And it looks georgeous!

Third bit to inspire: Lighting! I know right? Who knew something so obvious could have this much of a Wow effect!

Fourth Fantastic idea: Texture or patterned wallpaper. Take the mundane and make it extraordinary. With little expense and a little more effort this idea has impressive results.

Last but not least: Creative Combinations. I stumbled upon this beauty months ago on pinterest. Its files in my “Inspirations for the home I will never build.” The idea of combining wood and file is stunning.

Keep your eyes out for more inspirations and feel free to share your ideas! Or let us know which inspiration is your favorite.
