Rugs are great for adding colour texture and style to a room. They make wooden floors warmer and stone floors more comfortable and are great over carpets to add a touch of luxury. There are loads of different rugs to choose from so we've put this guide together to help you pick the right rug for your home.
Wool Rugs Sheepskin Rugs Synthetic Rugs Door Mats Anti Slip Backing Care
Wool Rugs
Many wool rugs are hand tufted which means they are made completely by hand. Craftsmen individually thread strands of wool through a canvas. A backing fabric is then attached to keep the strands in place Wool rugs tend to be hard wearing and therefore offer great value for money The pile of a wool rug is soft and luxurious
Sheepskin Rugs
Sheepskin rugs are available in single or double sizes Sheepskins are joined together to create a larger rug Sheepskins can successfully be dyed so rugs are available in various different colours
Synthetic Rugs
Synthetic rugs are durable and hardwearing Synthetic rugs are easy to care for and can be sponged or vacuumed A Synthentic rug provides economical floor covering with a vast range of colours and designs to choose from
Door Mats
Door mats are designed for keeping carpets and other floor coverings clean especially from dirty shoes or Wellington boots Rubber doormats with deep grooves are designed for removing the mud from your wellies so they are ideal for outside the back door Carpet mats with rubber backing stay in position and do not slip on the floor Coir mats are ideal for cleaning your shoes when you enter the house. Coir is made from the husk of the coconut shell and is incredibly hardwearing
Anti Slip Backing
It is vital to use anti slip backing if you are using rug on a smooth floor covering such as wood or linoleum You can buy various different sizes but the felt like backing can easily be cut to any size Our anti slip backing is 100% guaranteed to stop a rug from slipping
Care
We recommend that all rugs are cared for according to their individual care instructions found on the packaging or on the reverse of the rug it's self Cylinder vacuum cleaners are better to care for rugs as upright cleaners may cause damage to the pile Be as gentle as possible when vacuuming a rug using the tools rather than the main vacuum it's self Stains should be removed by dabbing not rubbing and only ever use cold water Wool rugs normally need to be professionally cleaned; you should check individual care instructions carefully
