Modern Style Rugs Featured on ITV.com
September 22, 2009 by · Leave a Comment
Modern Style Rugs was recently featured on ITV.com’s make over show. The online rug shop is known for it’s vast selection of quality rugs from all over the world.
The episode, which aired on 11 September 09, followed the make over team as they transformed the main rooms of a house in Blackpool.
In keeping with the theme of the show, each episode sees the make over team meet a challenge in which they must redecorate a real home. The team’s aim is always to excel and impress by transforming the living space from the generally average ‘lived-in’ look into the kind of appealing and desirable space valued highest by real estate agents.
To achieve this, the team have at their disposal the best tradesmen and suppliers in the region.
The rug we used in the makeover
Naturally, when it came to using high quality rugs, Modern Style Rugs was the obvious choice. The chosen rug for the makeover was an excellent non shed shaggy rug which is very popular at the moment (see image).
Why Use an Online Rug Shop instead of a local Carpet Shop?
Despite the fact that Modern Style Rugs is an online rug shop rather than a brick and mortar company, and the fact that there are carpet shops (some of them established locally for years) all over the region, the benefits of using Modern Style Rugs as one of the key suppliers in the home makeover are overwhelmingly in favour of the online shop.
Some of the main reasons for using Modern Style Rugs are:
- they have a vast selection of rugs
- they love what they do and they know their rugs inside out
- they only deal with very high quality rugs
- they deliver quality rugs sourced from various countries, adding to their variety
- they’re based in the UK and deliver all over the world
- their customer service is both friendly and helpful
- they make the buying process safe, easy and fast
The above points are just some of the reasons why using Modern Style Rugs as the rug supplier of choice is a smart decision.
As consumers we all want our shopping experience to be fast, secure and enjoyable, and we want be made to feel like our custom is appreciated. When this experience can be delivered, as is the case with Modern Style Rugs, then even the strongest loyalty can be swayed.
The online rug shop is scheduled to be featured in other tv shows in the near future . Watch this space!
Does anyone have any tips for taking dog/cat hair out of carpets and rugs?
September 20, 2009 by · 1 Comment
Discovered by accident today that those mitts you get for brushing dogs with (plastic peaks on one side and leather on the other), are brilliant at doing this. Does anyone have any other tips?
Sorry, I should have said that I’ve used all the usual methods, hoovering, sellotape etc and found the dog mitt got even more hair out.
