Carpet. Nylon or P.E.T. Polyester

Polyester or nylon? A common question when deciding "What carpet should I buy?"
The first question you need to ask yourself is what is more important to you?
 Are you worried about stains in the traffic areas, are you worried about the way it will hold up to
traffic, or is it both?
 There are two basic fibers that manufacturers us in the manufacturing of carpet.
Polyester and nylon. Now since I have been in the flooring industry for about
30 years, I sell  my customers what will have the best results in their situation.
So questions need to be asked.
                                                * Have you had carpet before.
                                                * If so, what did you like about it?
                                                * If so, what didn't you like about it?
                                                * Do you have children?
                                                * How long do you ecxpect it to last?
   With these few questions answered ,you can begin your quest for the perfect carpet.
Tomorrow i will begin the indepth breakdown on the different fibors.
 For now, answer these questions.
