I have 85,000 square feet of retail space to recover in a nice carpet. What is available what is the cost and what kind of lifespan?
In general terms you would have many choices for carpet. There are many qualities, colors, fibers, etc. to choose from and also will determine the prices. Commercial carpet starts at about 1.00 per sq ft for material only and goes up from there. The lifespan on commercial carpet is generally about 5 years on economical carpet and about 10 years on better quality carpet, but how much traffic, what areas it goes in, and the maintenance it receives will play are large part in its longevity.
