Area Rugs in Miami, FL

Why use area rugs?

You may know intuitively that the right area rug can help a room feel grounded – even if you can’t explain why. Area rugs are often used to pull together different elements in a room, such as various décor colors. When properly placed, an area rug can help visually anchor the furniture in the room to create cozy, intimate seating areas in your living room or dining room.

Area rugs can be used on top of any indoor or outdoor flooring surface, including hard surfaces such as hardwood, laminate, or tile as well as soft surfaces like wall-to-wall carpet. Rugs provide relaxed look and feel, providing a soft respite from the surface below. They absorb the impact of footsteps to reduce noise. They also create warmth & insulate a space.

Area Rug Styles & Colors

One of the best things about area rugs is the virtually limitless number of design options available. You’ll find rugs in all the trendiest colors, from neutrals like white or grey to natural hues like blue or green. If you need some visual excitement in your space, you can opt for a multicolor rug. Styles range from plush shag to classic farmhouse looks.

There is also a huge variety of sizes and shapes from which to choose. At Dolphin Carpet in Miami, FL, we offer rugs in large sizes like 8x10, medium sizes like 5x7 and smaller sizes like 4x6 or doormats. Choose from round rugs, rectangles and runners for your hallways. If you still can’t find the perfect rug among our huge selection, we’ll help you create a completely custom rug!

Caring for your area rugs and floors

Area rugs can and should be cleaned regularly. A regular vacuuming as part of your normal house cleaning routine is typically sufficient, but you should also consider an annual professional deep clean. Rugs can be steam cleaned if done properly.

Area rugs are safe for all floors, but you should ensure that you pair your materials correctly and use area rugs and pads together. The right-sized area rug pad will prevent your rug from slipping, keeping your home safe and helping to protect the floors underneath from damage.

If you have any other questions about rug care or rug pads, talk to one of our representatives at our Pinecrest/Palmetto Bay, FL Dolphin Carpet showroom. We’re always happy to help!
