Area rugs do much more than simply cover a portion of your floor. They create more unique floors, provide comfort underfoot, and serve as a protective barrier for high-traffic areas. Unlike wall-to-wall carpeting, area rugs are versatile and can be changed seasonally or whenever you want to refresh your décor.
One of the biggest advantages of an area rug is its ability to tie a room together. Whether your interior design leans modern, traditional, or somewhere in between, the right area rug can anchor your furniture and define a cohesive color palette. A well-placed rug can add contrast to a minimalist room or provide a sense of balance to a space with multiple patterns and textures.
Area rugs add a layer of cushioning that makes walking more comfortable and absorbs sound, reducing noise levels in a room. This is especially beneficial in large, open spaces or homes with high ceilings where echoes can be a concern. From a practical standpoint, rugs protect floors from wear and tear, especially in high-traffic areas.
Key Benefits of Area Rugs
One of the most common misconceptions about area rugs is that they are only suited for living rooms and bedrooms. While area rugs are commonly used next to beds and sofas, they can be a valuable addition to almost any area of a home or business. They help define functional spaces, protect high-traffic areas, and add a layer of comfort to otherwise cold or hard flooring. The Infinity Flooring team can help ensure that your rug is properly sized and placed to maximize its benefits when you get our design and installation services.
Best Places to Use Area Rugs
Sometimes, a larger rug may not be the perfect fit for your space. Whether you have inherited a large rug, purchased one that’s too big, or simply want to repurpose a carpet into a high-end rug, professional resizing services can make use of your large rug or carpet.
Flooring professionals can ensure clean edges and secure finishes, preventing fraying or damage over time. This process is especially useful for those who move into a new home where their existing rug no longer fits the dimensions of a room. Older rugs with damage along the edges or corners can be salvaged through resizing. Rather than discarding a valuable rug, you can trim and reshape it to give it new life, making it a sustainable and cost-effective option.
Whether you need a round rug for a small reading nook, a long and narrow runner for a hallway, or an irregular shape to accommodate a unique furniture arrangement, custom-cutting services can make it happen. There are basic sizes that most area rugs come in (4x6, 5x8, 8x10, etc.), but rugs and homes are not a one-size-fits-all situation. Professional services like ours can customize and cut any of our rugs that are for sale into whatever shape or size you need it to be.
Beyond shape and size, color and pattern customizations can further personalize a rug. Some professional rug services offer dyeing options to refresh faded colors or alter a rug’s tone to better match your decor. Others may provide pattern alterations or overlays that can enhance or modernize an existing rug.
If you’re looking for something completely unique, some companies even offer the creation of a rug from scratch, using materials, textures, and designs that fit your vision. Be sure to reach out to us here at Infinity Flooring to see what options may be available for resizing and reshaping any of our high-quality rugs.
Once your area rug is resized, there are different finishes that literally tie up the loose ends of the resizing job, and each type has its own unique aesthetic benefit. Fringes, binding, and serging are the main types of finishes for a rug, and they can dramatically alter the rug’s appearance, giving it a polished and unique look. We can offer a variety of edge treatments to complement any decor style.
Investing in professionally customized area rugs allows you to repurpose rugs you are not using or are not satisfied with, while ensuring longevity and quality craftsmanship. If you’re considering adding or customizing a rug in your home, now is the perfect time to explore your options with Infinity Flooring! We offer a wide variety of rugs and carpets, and we are happy to turn any of them into an area rug to fit whatever size you need!
