        5 Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Carpet Flooring

          Is it Time to Replace Your Carpet?

          In general, the average lifespan of carpet flooring is five to ten years. You can potentially extend the life of your carpet with meticulous maintenance and upkeep, but heavy traffic from kids, pets, and guests can also wreak havoc on your flooring.

          If you’re coming up on that five to ten-year timeframe and not sure if it’s time for new flooring, consider these top five signs that your carpet needs to be replaced –

          Fading or Permanent Stains

          Life happens, and no carpet is immune to stains. Even stain-resistant finishes eventually lose their effectiveness.

          While you might be able to place a rug or piece of furniture over a single stain, multiple stains are a telltale sign that you’re due for a new carpet.

          Similarly, if your carpet has begun to fade due to sunlight exposure or foot traffic, there’s nothing you can do to fix that other than covering up the surface. It’s time for a replacement.

          Worn-down Padding

          Remember when your carpet felt plush and comfy? If those memories are in the distant past, then your carpet may be at the end of its life.

          In addition to your carpet’s padding adding comfort, padding also serves as a sound barrier. If you have a two-story home or neighbors that live downstairs, worn-out padding allows the sound of footsteps to travel downward, sounding like aggressive stomps.

          Flat Pile or Loss of Plushness

          New carpet stands tall and proud, but as it ages, it can begin to look flat or even matted. You’ll most likely notice the flatness in heavily trafficked areas, making the visual contrast even starker.

          Because carpet tends to wear unevenly, when you see areas of flatness or your carpet appears less plush, it’s a major hint to begin shopping for new carpet flooring.

          General Wear and Tear

          Unless you avoid walking on your carpet altogether, there’s no avoiding wear and tear.

          Dirt and debris inevitably get tracked into your home. This is true even if you take off your shoes every time you enter your home. over along period of time, the buildup of dirt in the carpet’s fibers is so ground in that there’s no removing it.

          You might also begin to notice areas of damage beyond stains and flatness. Fraying and tears are also signs that your carpet needs to be replaced.

          Trapped-in Odors and Allergens

          If you’ve got kids or pets, you’re probably accustomed to all kinds of odors, including those that linger in your carpet flooring. While many odors can be addressed and eliminated, stubborn smells can become trapped in your carpeting as years go by.

          When you begin to notice that your carpet has mysterious scents emanating from it that don’t go away after cleaning, it’s time for a replacement.
