Is a rug pad really necessary? In one word, the short answer is, yes. There are many reasons why a rug pad is essential to the life of your custom rug or wall-to-wall carpet.
- Safety: Prevention of slipping of your custom rug, especially on hardwood or tile flooring.
- Cleanliness: Helps to trap dirt, so you will get a deeper clean to your custom rug or carpet when vacuuming. Also, inhibits wet spills from touching your flooring beneath.
- Durability: Your custom rug or carpet will last longer because the rug pad will protect against stretching and wear.
- Protection: Prevents damage to your flooring underneath from scratches, dyes and wet spill stains.
- Absorption: Rug pads provide sound absorption for your ears.
- Cushion: A rug pad can provide extra comfort for your feet.
