Choosing the Right Carpet for Your Home
Just walking into our Somercotes showroom, you’ll see an impressive choice of carpet styles, colours, and textures to suit every room and lifestyle. From soft, luxurious options to practical, family-friendly choices, there’s something for every home. To help make your decision a little easier, we’ve outlined the four main carpet types we supply and fit. Our friendly team are always happy to explain the benefits of each style and guide you to the perfect carpet for your needs.
Soft Deep Pile Carpets
Soft deep pile carpets are designed for comfort and indulgence. Perfect for bedrooms and relaxing living spaces, they provide a wonderfully cushioned feel underfoot. Modern fibres used in deep pile carpets are not only beautifully soft but also more resilient than ever, maintaining their plush look for longer. Many ranges feature stain-resistant technology, making them practical as well as luxurious.
Wool Loop Carpets
Wool loop carpets are made from durable European and New Zealand wool, offering a natural strength and texture that’s ideal for busy areas such as halls, stairs, and living rooms. Available in level or textured loops, they create a stylish, contemporary look and are excellent at hiding footprints. However, they’re not ideal for homes with cats, as claws can catch the loops. With natural insulating qualities and a timeless aesthetic, wool loops remain one of the most popular choices for modern homes.
Easy-Clean Twist Carpets
Perfect for family living, Easy-Clean Twist carpets are practical, durable, and ideal for busy households with children or pets. Made from advanced man-made fibres, these carpets are stain-resistant, bleach-cleanable, and designed to stay looking fresh with minimal effort. Many come with long stain and wear warranties for added peace of mind. They’re available in a wide range of colours and textures, so it’s easy to find a look that suits your home.
Wool Twist Carpets
Wool Twist carpets combine the natural durability of wool with a timeless, refined appearance. The fibres naturally bounce back from foot traffic, helping your carpet keep its shape and texture for years to come. All wool yarns are treated with moth-resistant protection, and many ranges blend pure wool with synthetic fibres for added softness and strength. Available in plain, heathered, and flecked tones, wool twist carpets are a versatile choice for every room in the home.
