HOW
to get the most
for your carpet dollar
... by Bill Laurine
Most important in this business of getting the most for .
your carpet dollar is the reputation of the manufacturer
and the store where you buy your carpet. The reputation
of the manufacturer and reputation of the store ! are
closely related they both want you to get the maximum
for your investment.
The carpet manufacturer tests, . checks, uses only the
finest materials before the product is completed and be
fore he puts his brand label on a floor covering.
Get- reliable advice
The store has a reputation, too. A reliable store will carry
and feature brand names of American manufacturers . .
. nationally advertised famous brand carpets you've read -about
in magazines. Made here in the United States, the
store knows the maker has rigid standards, and will
stand behind his product with a satisfactory warranty.
See a wide selection
Question your salesman about the type of weave, content
of the carpet . . and tell hm a little about the type of
room you plan to carpet. Tell him how much money
you plan to spend on it. In
you make a wise and practical choice.
Colors change in hue, depending on whether you look at
them in daylight, or under incandescent or fluorescent
lighting fixtures. To get an exact idea of the color, ask
your carpet salesman to send samples to your home,
in the color or colors you've chosen. Look at them with
the other colors in the room, in the light in which they
will be seen once they've been installed.
Avoid cut-rate bargains
There are very fine foreign carpets but a great propor
tion of floor coverings now being imported are cheap
copies of American patterns and weaves. The wools used
are soft, there are many imperfections in the weaving;
in general, they offer poor value, even though advertised
as cut-price bargains. It's important for you to buy a prop
erly labeled brand name floor covering, rather than an '
unknown fabric. .-
Perfect installation is a must
Have your room measured by an expert ... carpet may be.
installed in a variety of ways . . . Laurine's Cret House
will help you choose "the best installation method for your,
home. An expert installation keeps a carpet looking its
best and insures you of the service and beauty you expect
and do receive from first class floor coverings.
