Carpet in Alaska

As your local flooring store in Fairbanks and Anchorage, AK, we understand what it's like to live with the harsh Alaskan weather and know that your home should be a safe haven for spending cozy evenings indoors. Elevate that coziness with quality carpeting from Florcraft Carpet One Floor & Home. Our store is your ultimate destination for a wide array of carpet styles that are as bold as the Northern Lights and as soft as the first snow.

Choosing Your Carpet the Alaskan Way

In The Last Frontier, your carpet choice must be resilient against heavy snow boots and the dirt that's tracked in from spontaneous outdoor activities. That's why we offer a diverse selection of carpet options, including pet-proof, kid-friendly, and even waterproof carpets. Our mission is to ensure that your carpet seamlessly fits your Fairbanks or Anchorage lifestyle, as the Tanana River blends into the Alaskan landscape.

Exploring The Various Types of Carpet

Choose from our robust range of carpet types and brands designed especially for your home:

• Looped Carpet: Designed with uncut yarn, these carpets are available in low- or high-pile constructions. They can withstand the harsh Alaskan weather and regular indoor traffic, efficiently hiding stains and traffic patterns.
• Pattern Carpet: Featuring a combination of high-cut tufts and low loops that allow for various pattern designs, these carpets mask footprints and vacuum marks, making them perfect for the active areas of your home.
• Frieze Carpet: Often referred to as "twists", these carpets use highly twisted yarn that gives them their signature look. High on style and practicality, the twisty fibers excellently hide vacuum marks and footprints.
• Plush Carpets: Designed with high-density construction, these cut pile carpets add a touch of luxury to your home. Most plush carpets are soft to the touch and have a high lustre, so they aren't as good at hiding traffic patterns.
• Texture Carpet: Made from kinked or curled yarn, textured carpet is an excellent choice for high-traffic spaces, since the curled fibers reduce light reflection.

What are The Different Types of Carpet Fibers?

In addition to a range of carpet types, Florcraft Carpet One offers a variety of carpet fibers. Here are some options to consider:

• Nylon: A popular, durable option known for its resilience and ability to withstand heavy foot traffic.
• Polyester: This soft fiber is stain-resistant and offers vibrant colors that won't fade over time.
• Triexta: Known for its durability and resistance to stains, this newer fiber on the market is naturally hydrophobic, meaning it won’t absorb liquid.
• Wool: With natural stain resistance and a luxurious feel, wool carpets are a timeless choice for any home.

Caring for Your Carpet in Our Alaskan Climate

Alaskan weather can be as surprising as a moose strolling into your backyard. Here's how to care for your carpet in our unique climate:

• Regular vacuuming: To remove dirt and debris before they get embedded into your carpet fibers.
• Promptly address spills: Blot the spill with a clean cloth, avoiding rubbing, which could push the liquid deeper into the carpet.
• Professional cleaning: It is recommended to have your carpets professionally cleaned every 12-18 months to maintain their appearance and extend their lifespan.

Where to Install Your Carpet in Your Alaska Home?
