QF Focus Magazine Five ways to make your home cosier


Feeling the cold? Would you love to make your house warm and cosy in a way that will also have benefits in the summer? Covering those cold ceramic tiles or marble floor is one of the best ways to make your heating more effective and efficient. Here are 5 ways to achieve this.


RUGS - Most of us will already have rugs in our lounges as a finishing touch but a rug can be so much more. If you can feel cold air under your sofa, then it makes sense to have a bigger rug that can go underneath and stop that draft. This also applies equally for bedrooms too.


CARPETS - You probably thought you would never want fitted carpet in Spain but after a winter or two, you realise how cold the nights are. Add top quality underlay to good quality carpet and you’ve got a room that is


warm and cosy and provides support for your


joints all year round. Carpet also traps dust and pet hair which can then be hoovered away, quickly and easily and is therefore highly recommended for allergy sufferers.


EDGED / BOUND CARPET - If you want good quality floor covering, but don’t want it to be fully fitted, edged carpet could be the answer for you. You can order carpet to fit any room, the edges are bound in a matching colour and you have a large area rug. You can turn it for equal wear or, take it up in the summer, or take it with you if you move. For both the fitted and edged options, choose the ‘stain free for life’ option that is available to order in multiple widths so reducing any wastage.


CARPET TILES - Do you need a more practical and cheaper alternative to carpet to cover your floor. Consider carpet tiles as these can look amazing and will cover and cushion your floor, making them perfect for households with children, or if you dislike the tiles or marble floor. This is also an option if the floor is damaged or discoloured.


CUSHIONED VINYL -


Perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms or offices, cushioned vinyl is as it sounds - cushioned, comfortable, practical and easy to clean. Available in a wide range of designs and qualities to provide extra comfort, Vinyl is also perfect for covering ugly, cracked or broken tiles.
