TrafficMaster warranty for rugs & carpet

23/100 Warranty ScoreRanked 4 of 8 brandsCheck your model's manual
The short version

TrafficMaster doesn't cover everything, but keeps stain resistance and wear (fiber loss) covered to 5 years. That full coverage is the same as most of the 8 brands we compared, which typically cover nothing in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.

From TrafficMaster's published warranty, checked October 2026.

The fine print, decoded

What it leaves out

  • Tears
  • Water damage
Good to know before you buy
  • The carpet must be bought from The Home Depot and installed over the required pad.
  • Keep receipts for professional deep cleaning every 12 to 18 months; coverage depends on it.
  • Stain and wear claims are pro-rated after year 2: 50% in year 3, 30% in year 4, 10% in year 5.
  • Covers homes lived in by the owner, not commercial spaces.
