Area rugs are wonderful additions to homes and businesses. They provide an aura of warmth, are attractive, and allow the beauty of underlying wood, tile, or stone floors to shine through. They also keep floors cleaner, add safe, skid-free surfaces, and help to reduce noise.
Regardless of whether you are seeking area rugs for high-traffic areas or to accent rooms, it is best to purchase high-quality rugs that will stand the test of time, remaining both functional and attractive for years to come. Custom sized rug pads available. |
Where you place your area rugs and the amount of traffic and cleaning they require will help determine the best materials. Synthetic materials tend to stand up better to use and abuse while natural materials show wear sooner and are more difficult to clean.
The size of spaces in which you want to place area rugs is also an important factor when making measurements.

Some rules of thumb:
- Area rugs for large rooms should cover the majority of the space. Furniture should rest at least on the edges of the rug to prevent bunching and tripping.
- Area rugs placed in dining rooms should extend far enough away from the edges of the table to accommodate the movement of chairs.
- In bedrooms, area rugs should lie sufficiently under the bed to prevent tripping, or if used as runners, there should be even bare space between the sides or end of the bed and other furniture.
- Where doors swing open, area rugs should allow plenty of clearance without interference.
