floors So, let’s dive into some of the most common questions we get asked about carpets and laminate floors.

How much should you spend on carpet?

Let’s talk brass tacks. The amount you should spend on carpet depends on a few things: the room, the traffic it gets, and, of course, your budget. At Frank’s, we reckon you don’t have to spend a fortune to get a carpet that feels brill underfoot. We’ve got options that are both affordable and high-quality, meaning you’re always getting a cracking deal. Remember, “It’s Impossible To Buy Flooring For Less” – that’s our promise to you. Whether you’re after something plush for the lounge or something durable for the hallway, we’ve got you covered without you needing to shell out heaps.

How often should you buy new carpet?

Now, this is a bit like asking how long a piece of string is. The truth is, it varies. A good quality carpet can last you a good 5 to 15 years, depending on the wear and tear. If you’re noticing signs of ageing like matting, fading, and especially if the padding starts to give way, it might be time to pop into Frank’s for a chat. We’re all about keeping things straightforward, so we’ll help you find the perfect replacement without any faff.

How often should you replace carpet?

Similar to the above, but let’s add a bit more colour. Replacing carpet often depends on its location and how much footfall it sees. High-traffic areas might need a change a bit sooner. But, as a rule of thumb, giving your carpets a refresh every 5 to 15 years is a good shout. And, if you’ve got little ones or pets, you might lean towards the sooner side of that range. Don’t fret, though; at Frank’s, we have a variety of durable and easy-to-clean options that are perfect for busy homes.

Is it cheaper to carpet or laminate floor?

Ah, the age-old question. Generally speaking, carpet can be less expensive upfront compared to laminate flooring. However, laminate flooring might offer you more bang for your buck in the long run, thanks to its durability and ease of maintenance. It’s a bit of a balancing act, really. If you’re after warmth and comfort, carpet is your go-to. For sleekness and easy cleaning, laminate might be up your street. Whatever you decide, remember, at Frank’s, you’re guaranteed to get the best price, be it carpet or laminate. “We won’t be beaten on price,” that’s a guarantee.
