Carpet is great for adding comfort and luxury to spaces like living rooms and dens, and even bedrooms. While these are ideal spaces for almost all carpet, some stain-resistant and waterproof carpets are also recommended in playrooms, basements, stairs, and hallways. When it comes to carpet, it’s no secret that moisture and carpet don’t mix well. Carpet should not be installed in bathrooms or kitchens because of the high moisture levels.
