Carpet and flooring in Bentleigh
Bentleigh centres on the Centre Road shops and the station, about 8 km by road from our Huntingdale showroom. Californian bungalows and post-war houses still make up much of the suburb, alongside renovated family homes and a steady stream of new townhouses.
Many Bentleigh homes end up with a mix of floors: carpet in the bedrooms, something harder in the kitchen and living areas, and a decision about the stairs if there’s a second storey.
Choosing between wool and nylon carpet
A common question in family homes is whether to choose wool or nylon.
- Wool ($68.30/m² mid-range, about $110/m² premium) is warm, naturally resilient and feels luxurious underfoot. It suits main bedrooms and formal living rooms.
- Solution-dyed nylon ($43.50/m² mid-range, $68.30/m² high-end) is very hard-wearing, and the colour goes right through the fibre, so it stands up to spills. It’s a good fit for kids’ rooms and rumpus rooms.
- Triexta (about $68.30/m²) is soft with built-in stain resistance, a good middle ground.
