Usually the lifespan of carpets is around 5years for base range and 15 years for mid and higher ranges depending on the fiber. However, this also depends on the amount of foot-traffic it borne over the years. Usually they are good to go until they tear and become a slip hazard or the fibres get worn out. If you experience at least one of the following you should consider replacing your carpet:
