There are so many misconceptions about carpet. It has a bad reputation that it doesn't deserve, but this is mainly from choosing the wrong fiber, the wrong pile or the wrong pad for the way the space is being used.
You can shop for carpet in any store, right? You can, but there's a big difference when you shop where people know what they're talking about. The fiber type, pile construction and pad underneath all affect how your carpet looks, feels and holds up over time. When you visit Volunteer Flooring & Design, our team will walk you through everything. There's also the chance to see what carpet looks like under your own lighting before you commit if you decide to book a free in-home estimate.

At our Knoxville carpet store, we carry several constructions to meet your performance and design needs. Here's what we offer:
This is the most common carpet style where yarns are cut and twisted to create a soft, textured surface. The tighter the twist, the better it resists wear and matting over time. Cut pile is perfect for residential spaces because it combines comfort and durability.
Loop pile carpet uses uncut loops of yarn to create a durable, textured surface. It's ideal for the busiest areas of your home and commercial spaces. Although it's important to know that loop pile may snag in homes with pets that have sharp claws so we do consider that during your consultation.
The combination of cut and loop techniques create surface patterns and add more texture. It's a decorative style that fits right into living rooms, offices and feature areas where the goal is for your floor to contribute to the overall design.
Besides wall-to-wall carpet, we also carry a wide selection of area rugs in several sizes, styles and materials. Area rugs are great because they add warmth and texture to hard surface floors whether you have tile, laminate, hardwood or vinyl. It's a unique way to switch up your space without a full carpet installation.
It's important to get carpet installation right. It determines how your carpet looks, how long it lasts and how it feels underfoot. Our in-house Knoxville flooring contractors take care of every part of your carpet installation. We start by measuring your space and then we cover everything else including installing quality padding, laying the carpet with proper stretching and alignment for a clean, long-lasting finish.
We never use subcontractors. We know the crew who arrives to install your carpet and hold them to the same standard on every job. The majority of residential carpet installations are completed in a single day with minimal disruption to your home.
Once your installation is complete, we provide care instructions for the specific product so you can keep it looking its best for years to come.
