Legato Carpet Tiles

Legato carpet tiles are constructed with the home owner in mind and this means that the benefits of carpet tile, that for years have been used in commercial installations, are transferred to the home owner.

Legato Carpet Tiles Benefits for home:

• Easy to install: Legato's interlocking panel system make for an easy installation. In layman's terms this means that as each tile is placed, and by following the direction of the arrows in the underside, the edges interlock, and the non-slip backing secures the carpet to the floor. You should make sure the floor surface is clean and has no surface cracks or holes. Place the tile squares together, so they fit snugly, but not too tight.

• Packaging: It may sound strange to highlight the packaging of carpet tiles, but believe me this does make a great difference. Traditional carpets come in rolls and this means either specific equipment to carry into the room or some very strong arms that can carry and maneuver the carpet roll. Legato carpet tiles come in boxes where the tiles (19.7 (50cm)inches by 19.7 inches) are stacked together.

• Replacement: And this is one of the great things about Legato carpet tiles. Homes are lived in, many times by children and pets, and when we go about our business living and sharing in a home, things happen. And the sort of things that happen that will drive many people crazy is to get your carpet stained or damaged. With a traditional carpet that comes in a roll this will force you to either leave that great big stain in the middle of the living room (forcing your guests to politely ignore your cleanliness), or change the whole carpet, form wall to wall. With Legato carpet tiles you simple lift up the damaged or stained tile and replace it. That's it!

• Design: When you are decorating or redecorating your home, there are many things you have to take into account and decisions you have to make. Without going into the whole decorational experience, when it comes to your floors, choosing Legato carpet tiles can only help you out - not only for the above reasons, but also with the design possibilities that arise. You have your choice of colors and designs. You can go for a wall to wall carpet or you can chose to install it as the equivalent of a rug - to whatever size you want. But that is not all. You can install your carpet tiles to your own pattern design, just by mixing tile colors and tile designs. You can go for a chequered look or frame your carpet area with a different dolor.

• Durability. Carpet tiles are installed together, but can also be placed as a single carpet. This means that it must work as a single unit - unlike a carpet roll where a small cut off square becomes a rag, The way to do this, apart from the perfect cut, the perfect interlocking features and the perfect coloring, is the backing. This backing gives it much greater durability and performance than the normal carpet backing.

The Milliken company developed Legato carpet tiles specifically for your home use. They are easy to install (in most cases within a couple of hurs of starting the installation you will have your room carpeted), easy to replace and with designs made to enhance your home.
