Redesigning your home is always exciting. Picking new styles and exploring design possibilities can be fun — and the flooring is the final touch that brings your whole look together. But after all the creative planning comes a part that feels a little less exciting: actually buying the flooring.
Many homeowners find the buying process confusing or overwhelming. It’s common to feel unsure about where to start or what to look for. Without the right information, even simple tasks can seem stressful.
To make things easier, we’ve created a simple guide that walks you through the essentials of buying the perfect flooring for your home — helping you shop with confidence.
Step One: Know Your Needs
The most important step is to understand what you truly need from your flooring. Everyone has different preferences and lifestyles, and what works for one home might not suit another.
- Consider how much foot traffic your space gets
- Think about stain resistance and cleaning requirements
- Match flooring types to the room’s purpose — e.g. avoid carpet in bathrooms or easily stained materials in kitchens
Knowing your lifestyle needs will help you avoid disappointment later.
Step Two: Know What Flooring Works Best
Once you know your needs, explore which flooring types offer those benefits. Every material has its strengths and ideal uses:
- Carpet: Warm, soft and comfortable — perfect for bedrooms or family rooms with kids and pets
- Wood Flooring: Durable, elegant and stain-resistant — matches almost any interior style
- Vinyl Flooring: Water-resistant, affordable and easy to clean — ideal for bathrooms and kitchens

Once you know what you want, the final step is finding a trusted flooring supplier that offers both quality and value. That’s where Carpets Empire comes in.
