any space, the type
of flooring used
will contribute to the
esthetic of the home, setting the tone
for the feel of the inside. The choice
of paint on the walls can make a room
look and feel smaller, larger, cozy
and warm or grand and elegant, and
that equation also applies to flooring
choices. These days, there are
numerous visually appealing options
to choose from.
Evelyn Janz of Curtis Carpets
has amassed more than a decade of
experience, with knowledge in the vari-
eties of available flooring and what they
can offer new homeowners. The locally
owned and operated company
has been a successful go-to place
for flooring in Manitoba since 1980.
In addition to considerations of
carpets, vinyl plank, laminate
flooring, hardwood or tile flooring,
decisions can be facilitated by a
discussion about how we live.
"The No. 1 thing we ask about is
lifestyle," the sales manager says.
"Lifestyle comes before budget.
Every product has a good, better and
best. We give recommendations. By
all means, you can put pretty much
anything if you're single. If you have
children, pets, a busy household, the
needs will be different."
Besides carpet, the most trendy
flooring choices in new homes these
days are vinyl plank and laminate.
