Area rugs are a great decorative addition to any home. Besides adding decoration they can also save your carpet or restore that old tired carpet. Keep reading to learn how.

One thing that area rugs can do is hide damage that is already on your carpet. They can cover worn out areas, stained areas or parts of your carpet that are actually physically damaged. When you cover these area with a rug the rest of the carpet looks new in comparison. This can buy you time before you need to spend money on an expensive replacement carpet.

Another thing that rugs can do for you is to actually protect your carpet. You can place a rug in your living room or a runner in that high traffic hallway and cut down on wear to your carpet. It can also give you an extra layer of protection from stains and spills. You can then take an area rug out to be cleaned as opposed to having a cleaner come to your home to clean that carpet.

Lastly an area rug can actually change the appearance of your carpet. You might hate that hard Berber carpet or dislike the color of your pile carpet but a rug can change how it looks. It is much cheaper in most cases to buy a rug rather than pay to have new wall to wall carpet installed.

So if that carpet of yours is starting to look worn out, if you are tired of how it looks or if you just want to protect it consider putting down an area rug. They can do wonders in your home.
