When Is It Time To Replace Your Carpet?

Creative Effects Contracting • Feb 06, 2023

The majority of carpets require replacement every three to five years, depending on how much activity occurs in your home and how many people and pets live there. A properly kept carpet can last up to ten years if you're lucky. A few indications that it's time to replace your carpet are listed below. When you’re ready for new carpet installation in Tacoma, WA, or the surrounding areas, give the team at Creative Effects Contracting a call to do the job.


Stains Are Impossible To Hide

Carpets are meant for walking, living, and playing on. However, after a few years, your carpet will suffer damage as a result of these actions. Over time, pet and child-related spills and stains could become impossible to fully remove and conceal. It could be time for a new carpet if your old one has turned into a mosaic of faded stains that you can no longer cover up with strategically placed rugs or plants.


There’s an Odor That Won’t Leave

Pet messes are the most typical source of unpleasant scents that permeate carpet fibers. Even if a spill is cleaned up right away, contaminants can penetrate all the way into the padding of the carpet. Most scents can be eliminated by cleaning the carpet, but if the odor is particularly ingrained or persistent, we advise having the carpet replaced.


Noticing Bald Spots or Matting

A home that has been well-lived in will have worn carpet. High-traffic locations tend to have more threadbare spots than other areas. Polyester carpet needs to be replaced rather than restored since it is particularly prone to matting.
