PLANNING AHEAD
The eight things to remember before you head to the store
Carpet is one of the most affordable flooring options. It's usually quoted in linear metres (1m long x 3.66m wide – the dimensions of a standard carpet roll). To convert to square metres, divide by 3.66.
All Bremworth carpets come with an extensive 6 point warranty package. It's important to read the terms and conditions to ensure you understand what is included and how to care for your carpet.
We offer both Wool and Solution Dyed Nylon (SDN) carpets, each with unique benefits to suit different lifestyles.
Wool is a natural, high-performing fibre that’s durable, soft underfoot, hypoallergenic, stain and fire resistant, and helps create a warm, healthy home. It’s also renewable and biodegradable, making it a sustainable choice.
Solution Dyed Nylon (SDN) is a resilient, high-performance fibre built to last. It’s durable, fade resistant, easy to clean, and maintains its appearance in high-traffic areas.
Cut pile carpets are incredibly luxurious underfoot. Depending on the fibre type, some cut pile carpets show footprints – called tracking – (which generally vacuum out) and plusher cuts can show permanent shading. A quick tip – if you have cats that like to scratch or claw the floor, a cut pile carpet is your best option.
Loop pile carpets offer an array of stylish textures and designs, ranging from a minimalist appearance through to bold, unique patterns. Although loop pile carpets don’t show tracking and shading like cut pile carpets, they can still show traffic patterns in areas of the home that are repeatedly walked over in the same area (i.e. hallways).
Before you head in store, don't forget your floor plan for the retailer to provide a measure and quote.
Another piece to the puzzle is underlay – it will make your carpet feel more luxurious, last longer and as with most things, you get what you pay for.
Lastly we recommend your carpet is installed in accordance with the New Zealand Standard NZS 2455.1:2007 by a certified carpet layer.
