Area Rugs & Pads
Floor Factors is the go-to resource for area rugs as well as all your floor covering needs. An area rug might be just the thing to add a personal finishing touch to your residential or commercial space.
BENEFITS OF AN AREA RUG PAD
Beyond offering an attractive appearance for your indoor space, area rugs provide several other benefits including increased comfort, noise reduction, and added warmth. Hardwood and other flooring materials last significantly longer than carpet, but they may not be as comfortable to walk or sit on. Adding an area rug to rooms with hard floors will add a level of coziness and comfort. If your home or commercial space has an echo, installing an area rug can absorb sound and reduce the noise in a room. Area rugs also work to insulate a room and can create more warmth in colder areas such as basements or other large, open rooms.
In addition to myriad choices, our area rugs are affordable – much more so than any area rug store. Rug stores often markup their products up to 100%. This includes online rug dealers.
Choosing an Area Rug
The process of choosing a custom area rug for your home or business will start with reviewing the thousands of samples from our extensive flooring showroom in Portland. We provide area rug options woven from many different materials including wool, nylon, polyester, polypropylene, seagrass, sisal, jute, and woven vinyl. We offer area rugs in traditional rectangle shapes as well as round, oval, or square.
Additionally, any carpet or broadloom product found in our showroom can be made into an area rug. Wool area rugs are a popular choice because of the hypoallergenic, fire-retardant, and moisture-resistant qualities of the durable material. If you’re looking for a rug with superior stain-resistance, nylon or polyester might be a suitable fiber for you. After selecting a sample, our customers can choose a fabrication style for the perimeter of the rug. Borders can be created out of leather, cotton, wool, and most other materials –– the possibilities are virtually endless.
When an area rug is selected to cover hardwood floors or another delicate flooring material that’s prone to scratching, we highly recommend rug pads.
It’s best to use carpet pads on all area rugs, regardless of your flooring material. They are available in custom sizes as well as varying thicknesses with non-slip latex backing to stabilize the rug. In addition to protecting your floors from scratches, rug pads provide additional comfort underfoot. Area rugs pads are sold separately, but they can be purchased from Floor Factors as well. We can help you choose the carpet pad best for you.
