MANASQUAN, N.J., May 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — With Memorial Day just around the corner, Americans are headed outdoors. And as homeowners consider new grills, patio furniture, outdoor kitchens and porch remodels before the busy summer entertaining season, SMART Carpet and Flooring (http://www.smartcarpet.com), which has just received HomeAdvisor's 2015 Best of HomeAdvisor Award, has some advice: Don't forget the carpet.
It may not seem like an obvious choice to enhance outdoor living, but indoor/outdoor carpet makes an inviting, attractive and surprisingly durable flooring option for patios, sunrooms, and other outdoor spaces. Resistant to moisture, mildew and mold, Shaw indoor/outdoor carpet from SMART Carpet and Flooring is available in a variety of colors, patterns, and styles.
"Not everyone has the time or budget for a backyard renovation this summer, but many homeowners will be surprised to see how simple and affordable it can be to update outdoor living spaces with indoor/outdoor carpet," said SMART Carpet and Flooring Vice President Paul Haney. "We encourage folks to take a look at indoor/outdoor carpet if they've been wanting to make their patios, porches and other spaces more attractive and welcoming for the outdoor entertaining season."
To help homeowners choose the right indoor/outdoor flooring options for their lifestyles and budgets, SMART Carpet and Flooring has compiled the following suggestions.
* Budget-minded: Redecorating the patio with a new patio set and bright cushions? Anchor the area with Shaw's "Tactic" in Granite Dust. With a textured finish and marine backing, the affordable "Tactic" looks good in any environment and stands up to the elements.
* Classic: If it's time to update the covered porch, give it a timeless feel with Shaw's "Softscape II" in Peat. Equally at home under wicker rockers or wooden Adirondacks, durable "Softscape II" gives visitors a warm welcome.
* Outdoor luxury: For those who prefer high-end finishes on their outdoor living spaces, Shaw's subtly patterned "Succession II" in French Roast is an elegant choice. A sophisticated accent for any outdoor living room or bar area, "Succession II" is just as tough as all the other Shaw indoor/outdoor carpet choices.
For homeowners in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania who don't see themselves in this list, SMART Carpet and Flooring will deliver other options right to them. The company's mobile showroom brings over 4,000 flooring samples to clients, in their own homes, under their own lighting and against the backdrop of their own decor.
SMART Carpet and Flooring's customer-centric approach is what put the company on HomeAdvisor's short list for the 2015 Best of HomeAdvisor Award. Presented to professional HomeAdvisor members based on quality, service and value, the Best of HomeAdvisor Award recognizes customer-favorite industry professionals in the HomeAdvisor network.
