Common Questions
Answers to common questions about area rug sizing, binding styles, custom configurations, and pads.
In a living room, a general rule is that the rug should be large enough so the front legs of the sofa and chairs sit on it. Common sizes are 8x10 or 9x12. Bring layout photos to the showroom so we can help you calculate.

Yes. A high-quality rug pad prevents the rug from slipping, adds cushion, and protects the floor underneath (especially hardwood or LVP) from wear and backing abrasion. For stair runners, the pad is installed directly underneath the runner on each step.
