So we’re still seeing mostly solid-surface flooring installed throughout entire homes, when not long ago carpet was the go-to choice for bedrooms, living rooms and basement rec spaces. There will always be those who insist on the warmth and comfort only carpet can provide while opponents of this type of flooring maintain that it’s a pretty gross dirt, germ and allergen magnet, trapping anything and everything deep within its fibers.
Carpet is strangely polarizing, but what if you could have the best of both worlds? A little softness plus the ease of maintenance more in keeping with a solid surface flooring product—that is exactly what modular carpet tiles can provide. Once limited to more commercial applications, carpet tiles are becoming more prevalent in residential spaces, and why not? If there’s a spill, you can literally take up a piece of your carpet and rinse it under the tap. If a high traffic area is showing some wear, lift that path and set down a few new tiles. It doesn’t hurt that the colours and patterns available can add so much character to any style of room, helping to ground a space or bring in some needed flare and personality. Under Foot Inc has partnered with FLOR—manufacturers and distributors of amazing residential carpet tiles, and while FLOR primarily provides online and catalog sales across North America, we’ve brought in samples of some of their finest visuals and textures that clients are welcome to see, touch and borrow, ensuring the right look and feel is achieved. With FLOR you also have the option of customizing your look by mixing and matching colour and pattern as well as customizing size by going wall to wall or choosing specific shapes and dimensions. Using their patented FLORdots, tiles can be installed over almost any surface without shifting out of place or damaging the underlying floor. Convinced yet?
