About Frieze Carpet Flooring
Why Choose Frieze Carpet?
Frieze carpet (also called "shag" or "twist") features tightly twisted fibers that curl in multiple directions — hiding footprints, vacuum marks, and everyday wear patterns better than any other cut-pile style. LA Flooring carries frieze styles from Mohawk and Karastan that combine the soft feel of plush with the durability of a textured surface, making it an excellent all-around choice for Central Florida homes.
We partner directly with the industry's leading flooring brands — so you get better selection, better pricing, and a warranty-backed product every time.

Common Questions
Frieze Carpet Flooring FAQ
What is a twist rating for frieze carpet?
Twist rating measures how many times the fiber is twisted per inch. Frieze carpet typically has 7+ twists per inch — higher than plush — which is what gives it its curled, textured appearance and durability.
Is frieze carpet good for stairs?
Yes — frieze carpet's tight twist holds up well on stairs. Professional waterfall or cap-and-band installation is critical on stairs, and our team is experienced with both methods.
How does frieze carpet compare to plush in terms of softness?
Frieze is slightly less formal-looking than plush but nearly as soft underfoot. The tightly twisted fibers create a casual, textured surface that many homeowners find just as comfortable — with the added benefit of hiding footprints and vacuum marks better than plush. It's an excellent choice for family rooms and bedrooms that see heavy use.
What is the difference between frieze and Berber carpet?
Frieze is a cut-pile style (fibers are cut at the tips) with a soft, textured surface. Berber is a loop-pile style (fibers form continuous loops) with a more structured, flat appearance. Frieze is generally softer underfoot; Berber is more durable and better at resisting crushing in very high-traffic areas.
Is frieze carpet a good choice for allergy sufferers?
Any carpet traps airborne allergens better than hard-surface floors — which some allergy sufferers find beneficial, while others prefer hard surfaces. If you have carpet, Mohawk SmartStrand frieze is among the cleanest options: its built-in fiber protection resists holding allergens and releases them more effectively during vacuuming.
Can frieze carpet be professionally cleaned?
Yes — hot-water extraction (steam cleaning) is the preferred cleaning method. The twisted fibers release embedded soil well during professional cleaning. Schedule professional cleaning every 12–18 months. Regular vacuuming with a quality upright vacuum maintains appearance between deep cleanings.
How much does frieze carpet cost installed in Florida?
Frieze carpet installation in Central Florida typically runs $2.50–$7 per square foot including padding. Standard frieze begins around $2.50–$4 installed; premium Mohawk SmartStrand frieze runs $4.50–$7+. A written price guarantee is included with every LA Flooring measurement and quote.
