For many first-time homebuyers, purchasing a home is an exciting milestone. However, with so many decisions to make, it can also be overwhelming. One of the biggest decisions new homeowners must make is choosing the type of flooring for their home. With options such as carpet, vinyl, tile and stone, and hardwood flooring it can be challenging to decide which is the best choice. 

Simply The Best Values

Carpet is a popular choice for many homeowners due to its softness and warmth underfoot. It also comes in a wide variety of colors and styles, making it easy to find the perfect fit for any home. And many first time home buyers are also first time parents and carpet makes for a perfect landing for the newest additions to your starter family. Our Simply the Best collection of carpets feature bleach and fade resistant technology making it easier to clean and more forgiving of the chaos!
