Each time it rains, a little bit of water seeps under the tiles in our basement floor. Not much at all, but I’m wondering what type of carpet/ pad to get so that even that little bit, over time, won’t become mildew/ mold. I’d love any suggestions.

I am moving into a house with a pale blue carpet. But my couch is chocolate brown, my curtains are brown and gold and I have an antique gold mirror and pictures frames on the walls. How do I tie these colors in together? Like what color throw pillows should I use for the couch. Should I buy a big area rug to cover up as much carpet as possible?

I have urethane backing carpet that I need to install for the stairway. Should I use glue, double sided tape, or use the existing tack stips to hold the carpet in place? Are the tacking strips ok for urethane backing?

We currently have green carpet and beige walls. Our furniture is mostly a cream color with a burgundy and green rose print on it. Also we have green curtains. We would really like to just start out fresh with everything but my grandparents bought us the furniture and curtains. Any ideas for what we should paint our walls and what color our carpet should be?

I just got my first rehab duplex and I am wondering what to do with the flooring. Hardwood doesn’t have to get replaced all the time like carpet can, but I noticed that when we walk on the upper unit it can be very loud for the lower unit. Would carpet make a big difference in how much sound would come from kids running around etc. in the upper unit for people living below?

There is no trim along the bottom of the wall to make a barrier between the wall and the carpet. Is there some kind of way to protect the carpet and still be able to get down to the bottom without getting the carpet?
I realize taking up the carpet is an option, b ut if we do that, it won’t be as firm the the floor. Any other ideas?

I want to repaint my bedroom for a newer look. I already have beige carpet in there which i am not replacing, so i need a paint color to match the carpet. Any suggestions?

Can you tell what kind of carpet is the kind that has about and inch and a half of little yarn strands hanging out? Please?

Should I go for brown or will it clash with the small black pattern in the red Afghani rug? Or should I go with a black couch or will it look bad with dark brown Indian shisham wood furniture? Or should I buy a new rug?
