should carpets be replaced every 10 years regardless?
I don't wear shoes in my own house, so my 27 year old carpet is still in great condition.
On the other hand, I can put new carpet in a rental, and within 1 year, it will look 10 years old.
How do you decide a carpet is still serviceable vs needing to be replaced?
Do these carpets look usable? https://i.imgur.com/Dr9mDGV.jpg
New tenants were wondering if they could replace it in the future.
I am going with vinyl plank next time, and hoping they don't split at the seams or get too many ugly scratches.
