A great home deserves carpet

 
Are you looking for that perfect finishing touch for your home? Well, carpet might be just the thing you’re looking for. It can add a warm and inviting feel that hard surface flooring just can’t manage, and makes a great foundation for many different décor schemes. In fact, those who are loyal to this flooring will tell you, they will keep coming back to this particular material, time and again.

DeSitter Flooring has been proudly serving their customers since 1920, and is still a family owned and operated facility to this day. We still offer the best materials and services in the Western Springs, Glen Ellyn, LaGrange, Wheaton, Hinsdale, and Burr Ridge areas, with showrooms located in both Glen Ellyn and LaGrange, IL.

Our flooring professionals will be standing by to help match you with the floor covering that’s perfect for your needs.
 

Carpet benefits you can't miss

 
Of all the benefits carpet has to offer, one of the most important is safety. For homes with small children, learning to walk can be an exciting and risky stage. Stumbling is natural during this time and is often accompanied by falls, which can often lead to injury. However, many of those injuries can be alleviated by having a safe, soft place to fall, such as a nice plush floor covering like this one.

It’s nearly the same situation if you have elderly people living in your home. As we age, our steps are certainly not as sure, which can also lead to falls. In addition, older people also make use of walking aids such as canes and walkers, which can often get away from them on hard surface flooring. This can be very dangerous for these individuals and is lessened if not completely avoided, simply by installing carpet in the home.

A long-standing benefit of this material is the way that it can help to retain heat, making cold mornings much easier to bear, even in bare feet. Not only is your level of comfort increased, but it can help save on your utility bills as well. We could all use more of that benefit.

We suggest that you use a professional carpet installation service instead of trying to install this flooring yourself. You can get all the details about this from your your flooring professional.
