Carpet is perhaps the most widely used form of flooring. Its vast array of choices offers a level of versatility that is unmatched by other flooring options. Carpet makes your home more comfortable because it is so soft on your feet, provides insulation, and absorption of sound. From sophisticated patterns to colorful solids our carpet styles come in a full rainbow of shades, tones and hues. At Calvins Carpet One we offer the finest carpet brands and have the widest selections of designer colors, patterns and textures that will make your job of finding the perfect carpet easier, more enjoyable, and most importantly affordable. We always have over $1million of carpet in stock, which means a promise of fast service and quick installation. This includes a wide variety of styles and colors as well as European imports.
The selection of carpet color is a very personal choice. You will want to select a color that unites your décor and creates the atmosphere you desire. Lighter colors make the room seem larger; darker colors provide coziness. There are also practical considerations in color selection. New stain and soil resistant technology makes today's lighter color carpet much easier to clean, allowing more decorating options. Medium and darker colors, tweeds, and textures will help disguise common soil in your home's high traffic areas. Make sure to view our exclusive Select-A-Floor system that offers over 13,200 different colors to choose from.
The fiber of a carpet has a major impact on its overall performance.
Each type has its own considerations:
Nylon
The most popular carpet fiber used today. It offers excellent value, performance, and ease of maintenance.
It comes in brilliant colors and hides traffic well.
Polyester
Similar to nylon, polyester offers great color and feels great under foot. The ease of cleaning is one of its strong points.
Olefin/Polypropylene
Highly stain, static, mold, and mildew resistant. Commonly found in Berber and level-loop carpets.
Wool
The most luxurious fiber type around with an elegant look, soft wool feel, and great performance with a relatively expensive price point. In our Florida climate, wool is more popular in area rugs than wall-to-wall carpet.
The construction of a carpet refers to the manner in which the carpet fibers are joined together.
Woven carpet
Interweaving fibers on a loom, creating a tightly joined floor covering.
Tufted carpet
Created when needles force tufts of fibers into a prewoven fabric backing.
Non-woven carpet
Joining fibers to a backing with an adhesive.
Most carpet (95%) is tufted; non-woven carpets are generally reserved for indoor/outdoor use.
CARPET TYPES
We recommend that you choose a carpet type that best matches your lifestyle and provides you maximum performance.
Here is a brief description of common carpet types:
Textured Saxony (Most Popular)
Great for casual rooms also due to its design possibilities and it shows fewer footprints. This highly popular carpet type performs well in moderate to medium traffic areas.
Saxony
Great for formal rooms because of its versatility in design and smooth cut-pile construction.
Frieze
Perfect for active rooms and high-traffic areas due to its durability.
Velvet
Makes your room more elegant through a fine-tip sheared signature surface.
Cut & Un-Cut
Works in a variety of room settings to provide warmth through a great textured feel and patterned design.
Multi Level Loop
Also works in a variety of room setting to provide a highly casual yet durable performance.
Level Loop
Works for highly active rooms and basements because of its durability.
Berbers
Provides a great look for active rooms with a high loop construction that more resembles wool with large bulky durable yarns.
Note: Berbers are really big bulky yarns that are either produced in a level loop or a multi-level loop carpet construction. This type of construction makes berbers extremely durable and recommended for high traffic areas in the home.
CARPET PADDING
Choosing the right padding is just like upgrading the quality of the carpet itself. It provides a number of important functions. A primary role for carpet padding is to absorb impact that the carpet would otherwise be subjected. This minimizes the pull on the carpet backing, preventing the latex in the backing from breaking down as quickly. Carpet pad also supports the backing, preventing it from being smashed against the floor when you walk on it, thereby extending its life. Padding serves other important functions including:
- It makes the carpet feel more comfortable underfoot.
- It makes your vacuum cleaner more efficient by helping the vacuum lift the carpet and provides better air circulation.
- It will insulate your floor.
- It will reduce noise, so rooms are quieter.
Density is the most important factors in choosing the right padding. With modern technology, density matters more than the thickness of the padding. As such, most padding is measured by poundage. There are generally three types of carpet padding rubber, foam, and fiber. Each type has a few varieties within its category. They include:
Rubber
Waffle Rubber- This type of pad is made by molding natural or synthetic rubber to a rippled or waffled surface. It has been around as long as carpet and due to all of the new technology in padding we choose not to have it in stock. The waffle part of the padding gives it a thickness that is mostly air, and as a result, any of this type of padding rated less than 90 ounces is still too soft for today's carpets. In addition, the rubber that is used to make this type of pad is held together with a clay content that tends to break down over the years.
Flat Sponge Rubber- This type of padding is a firm, dense cushion, which has a flat surface and is normally used in large-scale commercial applications and with loop type (or berber) carpet.
Foam
Prime Urethane (softest walking pad)- This type of padding is made up of a solid piece of foam similar to what is used in upholstered furniture, mattresses, and automobile seats. Two liquid ingredients are combined to form a large mass of foam, which is then sliced into sheets for use as carpet cushion. Many thickness and densities are available to fit the level of plushness you desire.
Bonded polyurethane foam (also called rebond)- You cannot mistake this type of padding when you see it, because it is formed by combining chopped and shredded pieces of foam, in different sizes and usually different colors, into one solid piece. It frequently has a surface net for ease of installation and improved performance. It is one of the more common types of padding used in the flooring industry and comes in various densities and thicknesses. The higher the densities and poundage of a pad the firmer the walk. Therefore, the level of plushness decreases the higher the poundage.
Froth polyurethane foam- This type of padding is made with carpet backing machinery. Liquid ingredients are applied, either directly to the backs of some carpet styles, or to a non-woven material (for making separate cushion). They react and form thin, dense foam, which is particularly useful in commercial applications with wide expanses of carpet.
Fiber
Natural fiber- This type of padding includes felt, animal hair, and jute (the material used to make some kinds of rope and heavy burlap bags). This is one of the oldest types of carpet cushion, dating back to the earliest days of machine-made carpet. This type of padding is rarely used anymore. They are most commonly used under area rugs or commercial carpets.
Synthetic fiber- Like natural fiber padding, synthetic fiber is used most commonly under area rugs and commercial carpets. It includes nylon, polyester, polypropylene, and acrylics, which are needle-punched into relatively dense cushions which have a firm feel and, as with other types of cushion, can be made in virtually any weight, to stand up under light, medium, or heavy traffic, which is how they are usually classified.
At Calvins Carpet One our highly experienced sales staff will be able to assist you in finding the very best padding you will need for the carpet you choose. We are the only retailers in the business that carry the 9/16" Glacier memory foam pad and the "Super Plush" 9/16" Ultra prime urethane pad. Both pads have a "Life of the House" warranty including the labor for replacement should they fail. They are more expensive than the standard pad, but we carry them because they are the best for your carpet. Carpet padding is what gives you the plushness you expect and extends the life of your carpet. People tend to credit the carpet feel for why it is so plush and comfy when that has little to do with it. It is actually all in the pad selection.
Lifestyle
It can become overwhelming when choosing the right carpet that fits your home. So prior to your purchase there are a few things to consider. Think about the way you live and the overall feel you want your home to have. Imagine the room you want to carpet and how your family uses that room. All of these factors plus the overwhelming selections to choose from can be difficult to find exactly what you are looking for. That's why we have made it easy and convenient for you to find what best suits your needs by putting our selections into lifestyle categories.

Installation
Calvins Carpet One we guarantee not only a quality product, but installation as well. That's why we offer the industry's leading and most comprehensible installation program, which will prove to be the most valuable to you, over the life of the floor. Our Installation Excellence program keeps our installers up to date with the state of the art installation techniques, including thorough training and testing. We understand how crucial a quality installation is to our customers and we maintain our high level of customer satisfaction through this program. Therefore, the labor supplied by Calvins Carpet One offers an installation warranty for the life of the carpet.
We want to make sure your experience is easy and enjoyable from start to finish. There are few factors to consider and guidelines to follow that may help you through the installation process.
Color and pattern matching- If you have a preference for the direction of the pattern on the carpet, please discuss it with your sales professional at the time of the sale.
Stairs- In some instances we may not be able to match the pattern of the carpet on the stairs with the area next to it, or may require extra carpet to do so. Please ask your sales professional to discuss alternative options with you.
Seams- Seams are inevitable. Our installers will do the best they can, but you may be able to see some seams, depending on the placement of the seam and the type of carpet.
Leftover carpet- Carpet is manufactured in standard widths and must all be installed in the same direction, which can lead to leftover pieces. If desired, we will leave small remnants for your use.
- Make sure to verify your installation date.
- Remove all "breakables" from the room.
- Determine who will remove furniture, appliances and the sub-floor, if needed.
- Arrange for the disconnection of gas appliances and icemakers.
- Determine if any change to the height of the floor require adjustments to doors in order for them to close properly.
- Ensure the removal of items in storage areas and closets where the floor is to be resurfaced.
- Make certain drapes, wall hangings and pictures are removed from walls.
- Verify that your in-home temperature is appropriate for installation. We recommend above 65 degrees.
Care and Cleaning
A regular maintenance program extends the life of the original appearance of your carpet. These guidelines are as follows:
One of the best things you can do to maintain the life of your carpet is to vacuum it frequently. Vacuum low traffic areas at least once weekly. High traffic areas, especially areas where children and pets spend a lot of time, should be vacuumed at least three times weekly. Always pull your power brush vacuum back "against the grain" to brush the yard upward. This is easy to see, as the carpet will become darker upon each backstroke.
- Have your carpets professionally cleaned by us at least once a year. This will help refresh the texture and rejuvenate the fibers in your carpet. In addition, this is required to keep your warranties in force.
- For best results, give immediate attention to spots and spills. The longer the delay, the greater the possibility that the stain will become permanent.
- Blot liquids with a dry, white absorbent cloth or white paper towels. Do not scrub the area. This may cause damage to the carpet fibers. Continue to blot until the area is completely dry.
- Some of the more stubborn spots and spills may require more attention. A warm water and mild detergent mixture includes 1 quart of water with 1 teaspoon of detergent. Excessive amounts of this solution can cause your carpet to attract soil, so make sure not to have too much detergent in your mixture.
- Apply all cleaning agents to the white cloth rather than directly to the stained area to avoid saturating the carpet when spot cleaning.
- Deep stains may require repeat cleaning because they may resurface after the initial cleaning.
- Make sure to work from the outside to the center of the stains to prevent spreading.
- When the area is dry, vacuum or brush the pile to restore the texture.
Note: If your carpet is a Lees carpet with the Ultra 25 stain protection warranty, it is important to contact 3M at 1800-352-6789 before you attempt any of the listed stain removal methods.
