Berber carpeting has become extremely popular in Florida homes over the last decade, and for good reason. Not only is this flooring option attractive and made of high quality - it will also add value to your home, both aesthetically and financially.This two fold benefit will not only aid in the "showing" factor of any home that is on the market, it will also increase the selling price. However, should you plan to reside in your home for the immediate future, let us look at the overall benefits that Berber carpeting will yield on a day to day living basis.

The Advantages of Berber

Berber wears well, it hides dirt and tracking caused by foot traffic and is available in a wide array of styles and colors.

Berber carpeting is made of loops of flecked yarn. Multi-level loops give Berber carpeting many different looks, from formal to casual. The different loop levels can also create interesting patterns and designs, including basketweave and herringbone patterns.

Perhaps the only downside to Berber is that a snag in the loop can damage the carpet. This usually requires a carpet professional to come to your home and repair the damaged section.

Is Berber carpeting right for your Jacksonville property?

This all depends on the material of your Berber carpeting. If you have the budget to afford wool Berber in your Jacksonville home, then by all means do it. Wool Berber carpeting is a high-quality Berber which is non-allergenic, non-toxic, easy to clean, durable and soft to the touch.

Choose High-Quality Fibers

If, however, wool Berber is not in your price range, your next best bet is nylon Berber.  Don’t confuse a nylon blend such as a nylon/olefin blend with a nylon Berber. You’ll want to look for 100 percent nylon Berber, which may be difficult to find. Stay persistent, though, because it will be well worth your time and money to install quality carpeting in your Jacksonville property.

Nylon Berber carpeting will offer many more years of quality than other, manmade Berber carpet fibers such as PET and olefin. It carries a slightly higher price tag than PET and olefin, but is worth it because it resists stains and mildew, is crush-resistant, is ideal for high traffic areas and maintains its color.

Check out the beautiful array of wool and nylon Berber carpeting designs at your local home improvement center or carpeting retailer and consider all of the ways Berber carpeting can add style and flair to your Jacksonville home.
