Commercial carpet combines style and performance

Where to install commercial carpet

Commercial carpet works well in many business and professional environments. Choosing the right product starts with understanding how the space will be used.

Common applications include:

• Offices and conference rooms
• Retail stores
• Hotels and hospitality spaces
• Medical and professional offices
• Schools and educational facilities
• Churches and community centers
• Waiting and reception areas
• Multifamily common areas

A quiet private office has different flooring needs than a busy hallway or reception area. We can help you find carpet designed for the traffic and demands of each space.

Types of commercial carpet

Broadloom carpet and carpet tile are two popular choices for commercial flooring.

• Broadloom carpet comes in large rolls and creates a continuous appearance. It can be a great fit for offices, hospitality settings, conference rooms, and other spaces where comfort and a cohesive look are priorities.
• Carpet tile comes in individual squares or planks. Carpet squares are especially practical in busy commercial spaces because damaged or stained sections can often be replaced individually. Carpet tiles also give you the flexibility to combine colors, patterns, and layouts.

Our experienced showroom staff can help you compare both options and determine which makes sense for your project.

Choosing the right commercial carpet

Start with traffic. Carpet for a private office does not need to meet the same demands as flooring in a busy lobby.

Consider the carpet's fiber, construction, density, stain resistance, backing, color, and manufacturer performance recommendations. Patterns and darker colors may help disguise everyday dirt in busy areas, while lighter colors can give a room a brighter, more open appearance.

Maintenance should also factor into your decision. Selecting carpet that fits your cleaning routine can make caring for your floors easier.

With a large in-stock selection and hands-on assistance from our showroom staff and design consultants, our carpet company makes it easier to compare options and find the right fit.

Professional commercial carpet installation

Quality carpet needs quality installation. Improper preparation or installation can affect the carpet's appearance, performance, and lifespan.

Commercial carpet installation may involve:

• Removing existing flooring
• Preparing and inspecting the subfloor
• Measuring and planning the layout
• Cutting and positioning carpet
• Creating clean seams
• Applying adhesives when required
• Installing transitions and finishing details

Our commercial installation team provides full-service flooring installation from start to finish. Because we handle design, product selection, and installation in-house, you do not have to coordinate several different companies. We are your one-stop shop for commercial flooring.

Commercial carpet cleaning and maintenance

Routine maintenance can help commercial carpet maintain its appearance and extend its useful life. Vacuum high-traffic areas frequently to prevent dirt from becoming embedded in the fibers. Spills should be addressed quickly using cleaning methods approved by the carpet manufacturer.

Periodic professional cleaning may also be recommended depending on traffic. Entry mats can help reduce the dirt, moisture, and debris tracked onto your carpet, which can be particularly useful during Northeast Wisconsin winters.

Always follow the manufacturer's care recommendations to protect your carpet and warranty.
