Almost everyone, sooner or later, wants to enjoy the beauty and luxury of Wall-to-wall carpet. When the day of final decision arrives, we want to be sure you will not be disappointed. Wall-to-wall carpet should be considered as an investment in good living, but price per yard alone does not necessarily mean you will get your money’s worth. Other very important factors make up the retailer’s contribution to the wall-to-wall carpet transaction! I These factors include: Trained decorator advice... a choice of a large selection of colors, patterns and weaves from the finest mills in America... personalized service and flawless installation. We stress these factors — rather than “distress” merchandise sold on a “buyer beware” basis. Economical fitting, careful seaming, proper padding, even stretching^ and elimination of tack marks are all elements of value to be Sonsidered for longer carpet wear and added home beauty. And, these are the elements emphasized by our carpet installation experts There Is a great deal of difference in installation techniques. Inexpensive carpet can be properly installed to last longer, and yet the most expensive carpet in the world can be hopelessly marred by improper treatment. If you have been considering wall-to-wall carpet, you owe it to yourself to investigate the many “plus values” to be found in our fine quality installation and permit us the opportunity to guarantee your lasting satisfaction.
