väggtillvägg

Väggtillvägg is a Swedish term that translates to "wall-to-wall" in English. It is most commonly used in the context of flooring, referring to carpeting or other types of flooring that are installed to cover an entire room from one wall to the opposite wall, without any gaps or borders. This method of installation is distinct from the use of rugs or smaller carpets that are placed within a room.

Wall-to-wall carpeting offers a continuous and seamless appearance. It is often chosen for its ability to create a sense of spaciousness and to provide a consistent aesthetic throughout a room. Installation typically involves measuring the room precisely and cutting the flooring material to fit the exact dimensions. The edges are then secured to the floor or skirting boards.

Beyond carpeting, the concept of väggtillvägg can also apply to other types of flooring materials, such as laminate, vinyl, or even some types of wood flooring, when they are installed to cover the entire floor area of a space. The primary characteristic is the complete coverage of the floor surface from one boundary to another. This approach is practical for maximizing usable floor space and can contribute to insulation and sound absorption depending on the material used.
