It is a smart move to incorporate carpet tiles into your reception area design. Carpet tiles often called “modular carpet tiles” in the design industry have become widely recommended by thousands of professionals for many reasons.
The main advantage of using the carpet tile option over your typical “broadloom” carpet roll is that as they wear out over years of heavy use, you can easily replace them, without having to redo the whole reception area space.
As you can imagine, the carpet where you get all the traffic will wear out much faster than in areas without traffic. As these get worn out and dirty, you can easily remove those existing tiles and place down new ones.
Carpet tiles come in various sizes and styles. They are offered in circular, square and rectangular overall shapes with thousands for patterns available. Sizes can vary from 12″x 12″ to 36″x 36″- depending on which sizes would best fit your reception space. When these tiles are laid out for installation they can be laid to various patterns customized to your space (without the custom costs). This really gives your space an unique designer touch!
One important thing to remember to if you are going to be using modular carpet tiles is to order extra tiles when you plan your reception area flooring. The typical suggested overage is about 5-10%. This allows you to have an easier convenience when the carpet tiles are in need of replacement years to come.
