[0032]The best mode for carrying out the invention is presented in terms that disclose a preferred embodiment with two applications of a flooring having at least one replaceable section (FHORS). Flooring, whether hard flooring such as linoleum, or carpet, is subjected to conditions that can significantly damage the flooring. The damage can range from wear and tear, and deterioration from extended periods of use to discoloration from exposure to sunlight. The damage is often most prevalent in so-called high-traffic areas which include doorways, areas in front of couches / sofas and / or areas adjacent to entertainment centers or television. The areas in front of a window are sometimes not high-traffic areas, but the flooring can still experience the previously mentioned discoloration.

Abstract

A flooring having at least one replaceable section that allows a section of installed flooring to be removed and replaced with a new section.

Replaceable section(s) of carpet are especially adaptable and effective, therefore carpet is the preferred type of flooring. The section of installed carpet has an upper surface, a lower surface and edges. The new replacement section also has an upper surface, a lower surface, and edges. The new section is dimensioned the same as the removed section and is inserted into a cavity that is created when a section of carpet or hard floor is removed. The cavity has an inner lower surface and an interior edge. Once installed, each new section is maintained within the respective cavity by attachment means.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The invention generally pertains to flooring, and more particularly to flooring having at least one replaceable section that allows a section of installed flooring to be removed and replaced with a new section of flooring.BACKGROUND ART[0002]In many parts of the world, residential and office / business construction creates structures with floors made of a hard, durable material such as concrete. Depending on the room, another material is then placed on the floor. For certain rooms it is preferable to use a hand material such as wood, linoleum, tile or other similar material. For other rooms such as bedrooms, living rooms or offices, carpet is typically utilized.[0003]There are advantages and disadvantages associated with both hard flooring and carpeting. One of the most significant advantages to using hard flooring is that it is much more durable and long-lasting compared to carpeting. But both hard flooring and carpet experience damage, discoloration and / or deter...
