Carpet is the most practical, fashionable and versatile flooring choice, and it accounts for more than half of all flooring purchases made each year. In fact, carpet has outsold every other type of floor covering for nearly 50 years.

No matter what your style, Alden’s has a carpet to fit your needs. We represent more than 15 carpet manufacturers, among them Karastan, Mohawk, Coronet and Couristan.

Carpet offers many advantages that other flooring choices do not. Here's a few of the unique benefits that carpeting adds to your home - some you probably haven't thought of!

Warmth - Carpet is the ideal choice for bedrooms, family rooms and other areas where warmth underfoot is crucial.

Insulation - Carpet and carpet padding provide an extra layer of insulation between floors of your home. In fact, depending on its density and weight, carpet contributes to the R-value of a home, adding to its energy efficiency.

Safety - Carpet provides a non-slip surface to prevent accidents and a natural cushion in the event of a fall. This is especially important for young children and the elderly.

Sound Reduction - Carpeting reduces noise better than any other flooring choice. In fact, carpet dampens noise in three ways: reducing surface noise from foot traffic, absorbing airborne sound and blocking transmission of sound between floors. These qualities are especially valuable in apartments and semi-detached homes.
