Why Carpet Padding is an excellant choice.

Carpet adds to the beauty of your home. 


Carpet padding makes the carpet more comfortable and look better longer.




Rebond is the most common kind of carpet pad.  Walk-On takes foam pieces and bonds them together to made carpet padding. This makes a very affordable product.


Carpet without cushion had an average of 19.3% loss in pile height (thickness).  Carpet with the right cushion has a 5-10% loss in thickness.  When carpet becomes compacted the "new" look disappears more quickly making it look old or worn out.



Another quality of carpet cushion is it improves the overall thermal insulation properties of a floor covering.  R-value is used to measure a material’s resistance to heat flow.

Vacuum cleaning is more efficient with separate cushion since most machines “lift” the carpet to provide air circulation, thus insuring maximum cleaning power. This can help reduce the grinding action of embedded dirt that can cut and fray fiber.
