Selecting and purchasing the proper floor covering is just the beginning. Once your carpet, hardwood, ceramic, or vinyl flooring has been selected at Classic Carpet & Floor Covering, we have experienced installers whose skill and workmanship exceed customer's expectations!
Carpet
The majority of the carpet produced in the United States contains one of five pile fibers
A new fiber Triexta (which is found in SmartStrand carpet,
a renewably sourced polymera) and Smart Strnd Silk with DuPont Sorna is the only luxuriously soft carpet with built-in stain and soil protection that never washes or wears off and cleans with just water.
Synthetic fibers make up more than 99% of the fiber used by the U.S. carpet industry.
Each fiber has strengths and weaknesses that must be recognized and should influence how it is to be used and constructed. Some fibers have very low resiliency and only should be manufactured in high-density loop pile constructions to limit crushing (pile flattening). Other fibers have the tendency to absorb oily soils and other oil-based compounds (including body oils) and should be carefully considered before installing in areas subject to these contaminants. It should be emphasized that there is no perfect fiber and carpet is a fabric that is subjected to incredible abuse through foot traffic and accidental spills. At Classic Carpet, we will be with you at every step to make the right decision for your needs.
Our mills and suppliers are very conscious of the growing need for "green" products as well as "green" production methods.

Laminate Flooring
Laminate flooring has become a perfect choice for many homeowners due to its ability to closely emulate today's most popular hard surfaces
especially hardwood planks and ceramic or stone tiles. Besides the great textures and designs, laminate flooring offers improved durability, easier maintenance and affordability compared to other types of hard surface floors. These floors are extremely resistant to wear, stains and sunlight fading. The beautifully rich textured finishes make these floors a great alternative for most areas in the home.
While hardwood is often thought to be a superior choice, there are several advantages to laminate flooring.
Laminate flooring can be installed above or below grade, and over virtually any other flooring surface. The top surface of Laminate flooring is a resin-based coating, made of several coats of extremely tough-wearing aluminum oxide or melamine.
Although many people insist on hardwood flooring
laminates are a long-lasting, durable, affordable option that are quickly becoming one of the most popular types of flooring.
The construction process also makes laminate flooring more environment-friendly
as it uses less wood in its construction and makes more efficient use of the wood fiber that is used.
Classic Carpet & Floor Covering
carries these laminate flooring lines: Mohawk Flooring, Shaw, Columbia Flooring, Mannington
Bamboo & Cork Flooring
Bamboo flooring is technically made from grass but with a distinctive look and unique character.
This renewable flooring source matures in about 6 years and regenerates without replanting and does not need much fertilizer or pesticides, Bamboo comes in a wide variety of colors, textures, widths and constructions.
Cork flooring is extremely dense, resilient and stable and maintenance is the same as hardwood flooring.
The bark from cork trees can be harvested every 911 years and it's not unusual for a 200 year old tree to produce cork bark.
Cork flooring can be purchased in tiles in a wide variety of patterns and colors or 7" planks.
This renewable source of flooring can be harvested numerous times in the life of a cork tree.

Vinyl sheet flooring can be used in high-moisture areas such as kitchens and bathrooms but new and exciting design options make it a perfect choice for other areas of the home as well.
Sheet vinyl flooring can be installed over plywood, concrete, hardwood or other types of resilient flooring
such as linoleum or vinyl tile as long as the surface has been prepped correctly.

DuraCeramic tiles are a cross between a laminate flooring and a ceramic tile.
There are many advantages in purchasing Duraceramic tiles that make them one of the most popular tiles for kitchen and home remodeling. Since the tiles are not ceramic, they are much more warm and comfortable to the feet while walking. They allow for the joints to be grouted to give that ceramic tile look and appearance.

They are easy to maintain, clean and keep looking their best.
