When you think of carpet tiles, your mind might jump to office buildings. But not anymore. Today’s carpet tiles are stylish, family friendly, and surprisingly versatile. At Simply Floors in Aurora, we’ve seen a big rise in homeowners choosing modular carpet for playrooms, basements, and even bedrooms.
Let’s take a closer look at why carpet tiles are trending, and why they may be perfect for your home too.
What are carpet tiles anyway?
Carpet tiles are square or rectangular sections of carpet with built in backing. They’re installed piece by piece instead of rolled out like broadloom carpet. That gives you more flexibility, faster installation, and some cool design options.
Benefits that make life easier
Easy to replace
Spill something? Just pop out the stained tile and replace it. No need to re carpet the entire room.
Design flexibility
Mix and match colors, patterns, and layouts. Create borders, checkerboards, or simple solids.
Fast installation
Since they’re modular, carpet tiles go down quickly. No need to wait days for seams to settle.
Pet and kid friendly
They’re durable, stain resistant, and easy to clean. Great for basements, playrooms, and homes with four legged friends.
