Flooring First Manukau provides budget carpet and carpeting specials to style your rental
Flooring First stocks a range of lower priced, affordable carpet that will help you furnish your rental or new build without impacting on your return on investment. We buy bulk carpet to keep in stock for landlords and developers to enable us to supply at cost-effective prices, so you can benefit from our carpeting specials. Choose from a range of carpets including:
Tough polypropylene loop pile - great for entry-level rentals and is an affordable, hard wearing flooring option.
Solution-dyed nylon - a more upmarket option but still affordable.
Heavier weight solution dyed polyester – a smart choice for developers who want to create a good impression for potential buyers.
If you aren't sure which type of carpet would best suit your needs, come in and see the friendly team and we'll be happy to advise you.
Choosing carpet for a rental is different to choosing for yourself
When you are buying rental carpet remember that you need to think differently than if you were buying carpet for yourself. Carpet for an investment property should be:
Hardwearing - it is likely that there will be lots of foot traffic and tenants may not be as careful with your carpet as you would be.
A neutral colour - while it may be tempting to pick a carpet with a cool pattern or a bright colour remember that it will need to appeal to a wide range of people. Choosing a dark colour can be a good idea as this hides stains better.
Easy to clean - if you are planning to clean carpets in between tenancies choose one that is easy to clean and quick drying.
