I keep hearing over the last 10 years or so that tile and hardwood are taking the place of carpet in homes. I don't see it in the Northwest, (a little more hardwood possibly) maybe in the south in the warmer climates they are going more with tile as opposed to carpet. The only real increase in tile I see is in bathrooms or kitchens which were not usually carpeted to begin with, just replacing vinyl.

A lot of my customers are putting in hardwood floors or laminate which looks like hardwood floors. There is still a lot of carpet out there.

As long as your market area has cold weather carpets are here to stay. I live in Montana. Not to many people want to walk on cold tile and hardwoods in the winter.

personally, I think Carpet is not on decline.. It is very well known business and carpet owners usually wants the best care for their carpets and so they will still contact professional carpet cleaners..

I'm sure the numbers vary from region to region. I'm busy all year and the carpet stores are busy too.

Actually carpet is making a rebound, production has increased over the last 12 months.
In the residential market there is less carpet per house, however, there there are more homes. people who have gone the hard surface route have found out it is not all roses, more work than carpet to maintain it etc. etc.
The commercial market is very brisk, so no problem for the cleaning market.
