    Hi all!

    Just wanted to share my experience doing a carpet upgrade to my game room. My main motivator was sound - the room was super echo-y before with hardwood, and it made a HUGE difference. It also looks great and I did it in a way that's totally reversible, no damage to the nice hardwood underneath! Can't recommend more the "Neon Lights" line from Joy Carpets. It looks and feels amazing and being commercial grade I'm sure it will last a long time and handle heavy pins.

    Attaching a photo of the completed project, but if you're curious about the process/LED light upgrade to light it up, details are on my blog at:

    cheers,

    Looks sweet. Where did you buy the UV strips? I need to do this to my Joy Carpet as well!

    Thanks Anthony! The UV LED strips were from amazon.com, there are a bunch of different ones easily available there. Don’t forget the snap-on connectors which makes hooking up multiple strips a breeze.

    Looks great. If I might ask the dimensions of the rug you had made and the ballpark cost? I was thinking about doing something similar for a particular area in my game room, but I was afraid it would be too cost prohibitive?

    Hey Manimal. Their carpets are actually available as rugs in pre-set sizes. I had mine custom sized to the room, but found that the price per square foot was pretty comparable to the pre-set sized ones. I guess to them a cut is a cut and it doesn’t really cost more to make one custom sized. Anyway, the pre-set sized ones are available on amazon.com, this should give you a good idea of the pricing. Here’s the link, good luck! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A82NIZO
