Why Karastan Is the Carpet People Ask for by Name
The short version: it is the premium brand of the largest carpet mill in the world, and it earns the name. Karastan built its reputation on machine-woven wool rugs a century ago and still makes broadloom to a higher spec than the mid-range lines. When someone walks in asking for Karastan, they have usually lived on one before.
What a dealer adds is the choice inside the brand. A patterned wool for a dining room and a SmartStrand Silk for a family room with a golden retriever are both Karastan, and they are different decisions. The display is on our floor so you can make that decision underfoot.
Samples go home free. A premium carpet is exactly the one to see at dusk against your own walls before it is cut.

Free Measure. Firm Written Price.
845-831-4774We measure the rooms, plan the seams, and give you one all-in price covering carpet, pad, tear-out, furniture and installation.
What Drives the Price of a Karastan Floor
The fibre and the style first. Wool costs more than SmartStrand Silk; a patterned or woven construction costs more than a cut pile. Then the pad, which on a premium carpet should be premium too.
Then square footage, stairs, tear-out and disposal, and furniture moving. Stairs cost far more per square foot than open floor because every tread is cut and fitted by hand.
We do not publish per-square-foot numbers because seams and stairs move them too much to be honest. Call 845-831-4774 for a free in-home measure and a firm written price. Financing is available.
Karastan Carpet: Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I buy Karastan carpet near me in the Hudson Valley?
At Royalty Carpet & Flooring, 1615 Route 9, Wappingers Falls, NY 12590, Monday to Saturday 9:30am to 6pm. The Karastan display is on our showroom floor and the full range is available to order. We are an Abbey Flooring Center member dealer. Call 845-831-4774 to check a specific style before you drive out.
Is Karastan a high-end carpet?
Yes. Karastan is Mohawk's premium brand, positioned above Mohawk's own label in construction, fibre and finish. Its wool lines are among the best-made broadloom carpets sold in this country, and its SmartStrand Silk line pairs a premium feel with the stain resistance families need. It costs more than a standard Mohawk carpet, and it is built to last long enough to justify that.
Are Karastan and Mohawk the same company?
Yes. Karastan has been part of Mohawk Industries since 1993. Karastan is the premium brand; Mohawk's own label covers the mid-range and value lines. We carry both, and the honest answer to 'which one?' depends on the room and how long you plan to keep the house. We will show you the same colour family in each so the difference is in your hands, not in a brochure.
How much does Karastan carpet cost per square foot installed?
Karastan sits at the premium end, and the range within it is wide: a SmartStrand Silk cut-pile and a patterned wool are very different prices. Installed cost also depends on the pad, square footage, stairs and tear-out. We do not quote per square foot sight unseen, because on a premium carpet that number is nearly always wrong. Call 845-831-4774 for a free in-home measure and a firm written price.
What is the difference between Karastan wool and SmartStrand Silk?
Wool is the traditional premium fibre: naturally resilient, naturally soil-resistant, beautiful as it ages, and it needs proper care and the right cleaning. SmartStrand Silk is a triexta fibre with permanent built-in stain resistance and a very soft hand, which makes it the Karastan most families with children and pets choose. Both are on display; the difference is obvious once you touch them.
Is Karastan good for homes with pets?
SmartStrand Silk is. Its stain resistance is built into the fibre rather than sprayed on, so accidents release with cleaning instead of setting. Wool is a fine choice for a formal room but not the first pick for a house with a puppy. Pair either with a moisture-barrier pad and the subfloor is protected as well.
