Are Rug Pads Necessary?
+-
Are Rug Pads Necessary?
+-While rug pads aren't mandatory, they are a worthwhile investment. They protect your floors and maximize the life of your area rug. They offer several benefits:
- Prevent slipping: A rug pad helps create friction between the rug and the floor surface. This reduces the risk of slips and falls, especially on smooth surfaces like hardwood or tile.
- Protect your floors: Rug pads can help absorb impact. They prevent scratches and dents on your hardwood floors. No more worrying about foot traffic or furniture moving on the rug.
- Increase rug life: Rug pads help distribute the weight of furniture placed on the rug more evenly. This prevents pile flattening and extends the lifespan of your rug.
- Provide extra comfort: Some rug pads offer more cushioning. This creates a softer and more comfortable feel underfoot.
