Tufted Carpet – Using Tufting Guns
Woven Carpet – A woven carpet is essentially stitched together along the side, while a tufted carpet can be easily seamed both along the sides and across the ends. Today, most carpet suppliers still carry woven carpets as an option due to their exceptional quality and durability. This is especially true of woven carpets using natural materials such as 100 % wool or wool blends.

Different Kinds of Engineered Hardwood
Luxury Vinyl Plank
Luminated
– Vinyl is significantly more water-resistant, making it ideal for damp areas, while laminate is generally more susceptible to moisture damage
– Laminate flooring is made from several laminated layers, including a wood fiberboard core. Vinyl flooring—also made from several layers—is entirely synthetic.
– Vinyl also has a longer lifespan and better overall durability than laminate.
