The introduction of other flooring methods coupled with the need for change of people meant a decline in the popularity of wall to wall carpets. However, the trend of fitted carpets is becoming popular again with this generation and rightly so because these carpets have certain benefits that other flooring options don’t provide.

There are numerous pros of fitted carpets. However, the main factors why you should opt for carpeting are as follows:
