Carpet flooring is used in Kelowna homes, offices and commercial interiors where comfort, insulation and sound reduction are priorities. Different constructions perform differently depending on traffic levels and maintenance expectations. Cut pile styles create a softer appearance for bedrooms and living spaces, while loop and patterned carpet systems are better suited to stairs, offices and higher-traffic environments.
At Nufloors Kelowna, we supply nylon, polyester, triexta and wool carpet products in a range of textures, pile heights and backing systems. Residential and commercial-grade carpet options are available depending on durability requirements, acoustic performance and long-term maintenance expectations. Our team will help you compare fibre type, density and underlay systems to support the function of the space and overall project goals.
For an eco-friendly home.
Naturally warm, naturally beautiful — and naturally renewable.
Nufloors offers two types of cork flooring — cork planks and cork tiles. Both bring natural warmth and eco-friendly attributes; not a single tree is cut down to make cork flooring.
Ideal Rooms
Entrance ways, hallways, kitchens and family rooms.
Benefits
- Naturally resistant – Cork is naturally resistant to invasive organisms, mold and mildew. One of the most hypoallergenic flooring options available.
- It's soft – A springy surface that's very comfortable for walking or standing for long periods — great for homes with small children or older family members.
- Easy to clean – Weekly sweep or vacuum (no beater bar) and a slightly damp mop every couple of weeks is really all that's needed.
Considerations
- Ages over time – Cork has distinctive natural colouring that ages and fades in direct sunlight or UV light. Use drapes or UV-protective windows.
- Use furniture pads – A cork floor may become permanently indented if furniture pads aren't used to disperse weight.
- Pet nails – Dog nails can scratch the surface if not regularly groomed.
- Shade variation – Cork is a natural material — no two planks are alike, which adds to its beauty.
Tips to think about.
Pre-work.
Depending on the existing floor, removal could be an additional expense. Depending on the condition of your sub-floor, additional prep may also be needed before your cork floor goes down.
Maintain humidity in your home
Cork floors are natural products. Use a humidifier or dehumidifier to regulate humidity and minimize expansion and contraction in regions affected by humidity. This will preserve your floor.
Plank and tile sizing
Cork planks come in 7" x 36", 7½" x 46", 7½" x 69" and 12" x 36". Cork tiles come in 12" x 12", 15" x 15" and 12" x 24".
