  or the living room, you do not always have to
  spend a fortune on the carpets. Rather, the
  carpets should provide warmth and comfort to the
  family. When selecting a carpet, focus on the
  pile and fiber. The pile decides how the loops of
  the fiber are connected to the backing. There are

  from.

  fiber.    Wool has a luxury feel about it and
  is mostly used for high-quality carpets. They are
  also quite expensive. Wool carpets are high on
  aesthetics and very durable and resilient and are
  a perfect choice for areas with heavy
  footfalls.    Silk carpets too are of high
  quality and expensive. Prefer silk for new carpet
  installation as it is resistant to stains and is
  extremely soft and durable.

•     Nylon carpets are very soft and durable also
  and are the most preferred among synthetic
  fibers. Nylon carpets are resistant to abrasion,
  stains, and molds.    Polyester looks like
  wool, but not expensive, and is used for shag or
  textured carpets. They are soft and stain and
  fade resistant.Before deciding on a new carpet
  installation, always call in the professionals
  for advice and guidance.
