Common Carpet Buying Mistakes

By Alan Fletcher - Carpet Expert & Consumer Advocate

 

Consumers are frequently misinformed, over-charged or sold the wrong flooring materials. There are too many flooring salespeople that will tell you just about anything in order to convince you to buy from them. Because most are commissioned salespeople. For them, no sale means no pay, and hunger can easily cause salespeople to sacrifice integrity. This is why you should never buy carpet based solely on the advice of a carpet salesperson. You need the advice of someone who has your best interests in mind and who doesn't sell carpet for a living. Someone like me.

Buying carpet is complicated and you need to know exactly what you are doing if you want to get the best deal and have it last as long as possible. You need to know why one carpet will last for twenty years yet another carpet that looks exactly the same will wear out in five. Knowledge is power. Knowledge is how you protect yourself from buying the wrong materials and paying too much. 

Too many people have limited knowledge about the carpet they've purchased. They know how much they spent on it and the name of the color, but they don’t have a clue what fiber the carpet is made of. Why? They have trusted the salesperson to make all the decisions for them. Sometimes that works and everything turns out all right, but more often it is a very costly mistake.

 

  • Don’t trust a carpet salesperson to make decisions for you, do your homework. 

  • Learn how to comparison shop. Learn how to find the best deals. 

  • Learn which carpets can meet your needs, budget and your lifestyle.

  • Take my advice, order my ebook. You'll save time and money. Guaranteed. 

  • See my Room Yardage Chart and learn to measure carpet yourself.

 

Remember....

"Unless the salesperson asks you a lot of questions about your flooring needs in an honest attempt to help you select the right product to serve your needs, you can assume that they are interested in nothing more than their next paycheck. In that case they will likely applaud any selection you might make regardless of it being a wise selection or not."  - Alan Fletcher
