Floors, stairs & finishes
Should you put carpet on your stairs?
Here are the main benefits of putting carpet on your stairs:
- Safety
Carpet reduces the risk of slipping compared to bare wood or laminate.It provides traction and a softer landing if someone does trip.
- Comfort
Carpet makes stairs softer underfoot, easier on your joints, and warmer, especially in colder months.
- Noise Reduction
Hard stairs amplify footsteps, while carpet absorbs sound, making your home quieter.
- Aesthetic Appeal
Carpet adds style and can complement the look of your home. Runners or full carpeting can make stairs look more inviting.
- Protection for the Stairs
Carpet helps protect wood or other materials underneath from scratches, dents, and wear.Extends the lifespan of your stairs by acting as a buffer.
- Versatility
Wide range of colours, textures, and patterns to match your décor. Can be installed as a full covering or as a runner for a balanced look.
