What are the different types of carpets?

• <div><p>There are many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-types-carpet-fibers.htm">different types of carpets</a> for you to choose from. When choosing a carpet, it’s essential to consider the following:</p><ul><li><p><b>Fiber: </b>Describes what your carpet is made of, such as polyester, wool, nylon, or acrylic. </p></li><li><p><b>Pile type:</b> Explains how your carpet looks. Your carpet fibers can be looped, twisted, cut, or woven.</p></li><li><p><b>Pile height:</b> Describes the length of your carpet. You can choose a low, medium, or high pile.</p></li><li><p><b>Density: </b>Refers to how close yarn fibers are to each other. </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Do you glue down carpet padding?

• <div><p>If you have a concrete subfloor, you must secure the carpet padding with adhesive or glue. However, if you have a wooden subfloor, use staples instead. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-remove-glued-carpet.htm">Removing a glued-down carpet</a> can be difficult and time-consuming, so it’s best to avoid glue when possible.</p></div>

Q: What is the cheapest DIY flooring?

• <div><p>Sheet vinyl is the cheapest DIY flooring, depending on the brand, style, and quality you choose. Not only is it one of the most affordable flooring products on the market, but it is also easy for most homeowners to install, as it only requires cutting, trimming, and gluing down to the existing floor surface. Some sheet vinyl manufacturers make a loose-lay sheet vinyl flooring that does not even need to be glued.</p><p>Carpet squares, tile stickers, painting or stenciling existing tile floors, and painting existing concrete flooring are also affordable options for DIY flooring.</p></div>

Q: How do you maintain your carpet?

• <div><p>There are a few <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-tips-keep-carpet-looking-new.htm">carpet maintenance tips</a> you&rsquo;ll want to use to keep your carpet looking brand-new. Make sure you tackle stains immediately, and only use cleaners gentle enough for your carpet's specific fibers. You can even pop area rugs on top of wall-to-wall carpeting to change the look of your space and protect the carpet below.</p></div>

Q: What flooring materials do floor transitions work best with?

• <div><p>Door transitions can work with virtually any flooring type; however, different transition strips lend themselves better to specific flooring types. For instance, if you are bridging the gap between a taller floor, like carpet, to a shorter floor, like hardwood, then you will want a transition strip with a slight slope to bridge the height difference. These transition strips are called reducer molding. On the other hand, if you are bridging two floors of the same height, you can use flat transition strips, such as T-strips and seam binders.</p></div>
