2 Choose your color When people think about getting new carpet, they usually think about color first. It’s a perfect place to start. Bring in your paint chips, upholstery samples, fabric swatches or even your favorite throw pillow and we’ll help you coordinate them with our Simple Select Pro-gram. We have a carpet color for every room in the house.

Basic Color Guidelines

Different colors affect our moods in different ways. You’ve decided chocolate brown, your favorite color, is going to be the main focus in your room. Before you buy a room full of brown flooring, consider the effect it will have on the overall appearance and mood of your room. Use the following descriptions as guides to create “color harmony” for every room in your house.

Neutrals

• Even though today’s home furnishing trends are sparkling with more and more color, using neutrals is still your most practical, long-term, budget-friendly choice. Colors come and colors go, but neutrals always work with what’s in style. The neutral color family includes a surprisingly broad range of hues, from white to black and a variety of browns and grays. Overall, lighter colors make a room seem larger while darker colors provide a cozy and close feel. Using these shades in your home can help you feel more centered and better able to prioritize your thoughts and actions.

Warm Colors

• Red is the color of expression, and will instantly “wake up” a room. Red is a color that can evoke lively conversation in a living room or stimulate appetite in a dining room.

• Orange is heating up home design, usually as an accent color. Orange can be subtle and sultry or fresh and vibrant, depending on the brightness and intensity.

• Yellow should be treated like sunlight. You want it around for happiness, but you don’t want it to be overpowering. By using lighter shades and less vivid yellows, you can create sunny ambiance in your home.

Cool Colors

• Green is said to be the most restful color for the human eye. From emerald to sage, green in your home provides solace and peace.

• Blue is the “feel good” color of home decorating and is the most popular year after year. Blue is a color people connect with because we are surrounded by it – think sky and sea.

• Purple has long been associated with richness and mystery. Recently purple is getting more interest in home decorating. The purple family of colors makes your décor more imaginative and romantic.

Our carpet styles and colors have been coordinated to help you find the perfect solution for every room, every time.

Flooring Calculator

Once you have selected your product and identified the areas of your home you would like to carpet, you can estimate the cost of your project. The process is simple with these easy to follow steps:

1. Sketch the areas that need to be carpeted.

2. Measure the length and width of the areas you want to cover. Make sure the measurements are made at the longest points for both length and width.

3. After you have the measurements for each area, simply drop the numbers into the formula below. 4. Add the carpet cost and the cushion cost for each area to get an estimated project cost.

Sqft._____ x 1.1 (overage) = Sqft. Needed___

Note: These are only estimates. In order to get an actual cost, a measurement will need to be scheduled so a trained installation specialist can calculate actual project cost. Additional footage may be needed for rooms larger than 12 ft. to accommodate seaming.

CushionCarpet and carpet padding go together in your home to make your flooring more comfortable underfoot, make your carpet last longer, reduce noise and help provide insulation. While the cushiony comfort of your carpet may feel like the most important reason for choosing particular padding, keep in mind that specific pads are designed to help extend the life of certain types of carpet. The right pad absorbs the impact burden, relieving stress on carpet backing and fibers.

Lowe’s carries superior pads that help the carpet resist matting and crushing. It also provides added comfort reduces noise and adds longer wear life for the carpet. Carpets installed over cushion typically last much longer and are easier to maintain than carpet directly glued to the hard surface.

Most carpet manufacturers specify the types of padding that perform best with their products. Your Lowe’s Flooring Specialist can also help with your padding selection.
