carpet salesman SUN RIVER

carpet salesman in SUN RIVER.One of the activities she had planned for my visit was to help her choose new carpet for her house.
The salesman at really stood out.
His name is david feltt , and he is without a doubt the best carpet salesperson i have ever encountered.
Not only did he know his product, he talked to my sister about different fibers, the pros and cons of various construction types, and, to my personal delight, how to maintain carpet warranties through proper cleaning and maintenance.
I asked david to talk to me for the cri blog.
Cri: what kinds of trends are you seeing?
Broadloom as area rugs?
We can do that.
Try to find that off the rack.
Df: patterned carpet is a niche product.
It goes wonderfully in certain areas of a home, but seldom in a whole house.
Great for libraries or dens or special bedrooms.
Cri: cut and loop or frieze styles?
Df: friezes are probably close to 40 percent of our business.
Where olefin berbers used to go, friezes now dominate.
Cut and loop is my favorite style.
Short and tight, just what i want to see in a carpet.
Gravity eventually pulls us all six feet under.
Gravity works on carpet too.
If a carpet is short and tightly twisted, there are seldom any complaints.
I love cut and loop.
Cri: you talked to us about warranties and carpet cleaning is that something you address with most carpet shoppers?
The client called me in at 26 months with no cleaning record.
Even though she was given warranty information, i still feel awful about that encounter.
Vacuum often and steam clean at the first sign of soiling.
I refer folks to it often and i use it myself.
Df: we all know that there are virtually no vocs from carpet.
Once in a blue moon, someone will enter my showroom and have to leave because of the odor.
But we have engineered woods and laminates and vinyl products in the showroom as well.
Who knows what sets off the sniffling?
Many seem convinced that carpet is unhealthy.
I refute that at every opportunity and thanks to cri i have some ammunition.
There is an urban legend regarding carpet and allergies.
And as any of my close friends will tell you, i abhor urban legends.
I fight the perception that carpet enhances allergies on a daily basis.
Thank goodness i have resources like the cri to dispel those urban myths.
Cri: are men and women different in their flooring preferences?
Carpet is warm, it is quieting; it is inviting.
Cri: is it a better value during a tough economy?
Many folks are in a position to sell their houses in these economic times.
Often what needs the most attention is the carpet.
But for those who have decided to stay put, a quality carpet will serve them for many years.
Df: take care of your carpet.
Have it professionally steamed cleaned.
Carpet is by no means on its way out.
In the end, my sister made her carpet decision based on color.
