Carpet - A Thing of the Past?

Carpeting, with its rich textures and comforting vibes, has been a staple in homes for decades, weaving its way through various trends and styles. As we dive into the current state of home decor, one might wonder if carpet is still in vogue or if it has become a relic of the past. The truth is, carpet has evolved, demonstrating resilience and adaptability in the face of changing interior design trends.

Today, carpet stands at the crossroads of tradition and innovation. The modern homeowner is spoilt for choice with an array of materials, patterns, and eco-friendly options that were unimaginable in the past. Innovations in fiber technology and design have enabled carpets to offer not just warmth and comfort but also high durability and easier maintenance, making them suitable for busy households and even commercial spaces.


Moreover, the rise of minimalist-inspired designs has seen a preference for neutral and subtle textures in carpets, aligning them with contemporary aesthetics.

However, the resurgence of hardwood floors and the growing popularity of alternatives like vinyl and laminate cannot be ignored. These options offer a different set of benefits, including ease of cleaning and a modern look that appeals to many. Yet, carpet holds its ground by providing unparalleled softness, noise reduction, and insulation—qualities that hard surfaces simply cannot match.


For those looking to create a cozy and inviting atmosphere, carpet remains an unrivaled choice. While trends come and go, the warmth, comfort, and versatility of carpet ensure it remains a relevant and cherished option in home decor. It's not about whether carpet is in or out of style; it's about how it continues to adapt and meet the needs of today's homeowners, proving that it's far from being a thing of the past.

When it comes to remodeling your home, we get it—you want the best for your space. But too often, we see homeowners asking for “cheap” when they really want “quality.” At Hemme Construction, we believe that you shouldn’t have to make that compromise. Remodeling is an investment, and while budget is important, the real question is: What kind of value are you getting for your money?

As homes across the country continue to age, remodeling is becoming more than just a trend—it's a smart investment. According to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) , the remodeling market is poised for steady growth over the next several years, driven largely by the increasing age of owner-occupied homes. At Hemme Construction, we’re seeing this trend play out locally as well. More homeowners are turning to remodeling as a way to improve functionality, boost energy efficiency, and modernize outdated spaces without the cost and hassle of moving. And it’s no wonder—NAHB reports that the median age of owner-occupied homes in the U.S. is now over 40 years. That means many homes are in need of upgrades to meet today’s lifestyle and performance expectations.
