advantages and disadvantages of carpet tileMany customers who prefer hard surfaces are very open to carpet tile as less expensive and warmer alternative.  Since carpet tiles are generally flatter and low pile, they trap less dirt and are better for indoor air quality. 

8. Carpet tiles are more resilient to water and moisture.

This is both because of the backing and the tight weave.  I don’t want to mislead anybody here as carpet tiles are not waterproof.  If you have a flood, you would probably need to replace them (like most other flooring surfaces).  But for areas that may be prone to minor moisture or the occasional spill (or pet accident), compared to wall to wall carpet, carpet tiles will hold up better and are more likely to protect your sub-floor from topical damage.
