How is carpet more advantageous than parquet or ceramic flooring?

Wool and woven carpets have very important advantages over hardwood floors. The advantages such as aesthetics, comfort, and noise reduction are the first advantages that come to mind. Here are the elements that make using carpets more advantageous than hardwood floors. Carpets give almost every home a much more luxurious and comfortable appearance than parquet. It is not possible to find a parquet with such a wide range of colors, patterns and textures. Designers working on woven products have the freedom to produce enthusiastic designs. Using small motifs, patterns or borders on flat areas and stairs allows people to have the right impression. You can change the tone or mood of the interior much more accurately with the use of carpets. Carpet is comfortable to use, warm to the touch and feels good to walk on. These features cannot be achieved with hard floor coverings. Carpet is much less tiring to walk on in large areas than tiles. The soft surface of carpets can also have a calming effect when sitting or standing for long periods of time. Carpet is an exceptional sound absorbing material and can significantly reduce background noise in a building and also make it less stressful and tiring. Hard flooring materials such as hardwood or ceramic tiles cannot reduce noise. It is a well known fact that carpets are often purchased to be laid over hard flooring to help alleviate disturbing noise issues. Safety is an important aspect that is often overlooked when it comes to flooring. Most hard floors can become slippery when wet, causing falls. Using non-slip carpet has been proven to significantly reduce falls, even in areas where spills are likely. Falls on carpet are much less severe than those on hard floors. Hard floor coverings (hardwood or ceramic) are not only expensive to buy, but also quite costly to install. Sometimes they can cost up to 3 times more than carpet. The floor to be covered also needs to be in perfect condition. It is often said that hard floors are easier to keep clean than carpets. However, real case studies tell a different story. Carpet absorbs dust and holds it in the fibers until it is vacuumed. Spills on hard floors are not only a safety concern, they also cause major contamination problems as they can easily spread from one area to another. Carpet tends to confine spills to a smaller area. Once the lifespan of hardwood flooring has come to an end, it can be very difficult, time consuming and expensive to remove. In summary, for hardwood flooring, carpet is a much more advantageous option when considering the higher initial purchase price/installation costs.
