Choose Carpet For Your Budget

Looking for new carpet without breaking the bank? Whether you’re refreshing a single room or carpeting your entire home, finding the perfect balance between quality and budget is key.

At Frank’s, we’ve helped thousands of customers across the North East do just that, so let’s talk about how you can choose carpet that looks amazing, lasts, and fits your budget.

Step 1: Know Your Budget and Your Space

The first step is knowing how much you’re comfortable spending and the size of the space you’re carpeting. This might sound obvious, but having clear measurements makes all the difference in avoiding overspending or buying more carpet than you need. To find the best options within your budget, simply:

1. Measure Your Space: If you’ve got a floor plan, bring it along when you visit your local Frank’s. If not, don’t worry—you can request a friendly team member to come and measure up for you here.
2. Calculate Price Per Square Metre: By dividing your budget by the size of your space, you’ll get a rough idea of the price range that’ll work for you.

With this information, we can guide you to the carpets that fit your needs and budget, without any hassle or hard sell.

Step 2: Decide on Carpet Style and Durability

Once you’ve got a budget in mind, consider the style and durability that best suit each room. Here’s a quick rundown of popular carpet types and what they each offer:

• Twist Pile Carpets: These are durable and ideal for high-traffic areas like living rooms and hallways. Twist pile carpets come in a wide range of colours and are a budget-friendly, practical choice.
• Saxony Carpets: Saxony carpets have a plush, luxurious feel, perfect for bedrooms where comfort is key. They tend to cost a bit more, so factor this into your plan if you’re after that.
• Loop Pile Carpets: Known for their durability and unique texture, loop pile carpets work great in busier areas. They hide footprints and vacuum marks, making them an excellent choice for families with pets or children.
• Budget Carpets: If you’re looking for a simple, no-frills option for less-used areas, we’ve got a variety of affordable, durable roll-end options that’ll still look fantastic.

Step 3: Choose Colours That Work for Your Space and Lifestyle

Colour can make a huge impact, not only on the look of your room but also on how well the carpet will wear over time. Here are some tips:

• Neutral Tones: Greys, beiges, and taupes are versatile and won’t clash with future changes in decor. They’re practical for high-traffic areas too, as they hide stains and dirt.
• Dark Colours: Darker carpets can hide stains better, making them ideal for busy households with pets or young children.
• Light Colours: For a bright, airy feel, light colours are beautiful in spaces like bedrooms. They might need a bit more upkeep but can add a sense of space.
