Carpet stair treads with bullnose - anyone have these?

9 years ago

I'm thinking of buying some carpet stairs treads I saw on Home Depot here:

Does anyone have these, and do you like them?

The stair tread fits perfectly around the bullnose of the stair tread and creates a seamless look. I personally like this on my stairs. You can also try them.

What is the reason for carpeted stairs to the basement? Is that the entry area? Our old house had carpeted stairs and we ended up pulling it out after DH slipped and fell down the last 3 steps, knocking a large hole in the wall at the bottom. It could have been the carpet type, which was installed over finished hard wood steps, but all I know is that after we took it out, no more problems with slipping (or kids using the stairs to 'surf' with cardboard. Anyway, back to the topic, I'd suggest a unified look if at all possible.

What does the carpet tread manufacturer suggest? Anything that permanently affixes the carpet to the treads is going to damage the surface (at least on the wood). I personally prefer a properly installed stair runner over carpet treads...but that's me. I do not like hanging my physical well being on a roll of double sided carpet tape from Home Depot (I've met the people who ended up in hospital...the broken bones heal but the head injuries persist). I would leave the carpet treads in the box they came in and bring in a flooring/stair expert to give you a quote on a properly installed stair runner. If the cost is doable, then ship the treads back in their original packaging. Don't even open them.

Late to the thread here, but this might help those in the future. My carpeted parts have a nose that matches the false tread. The original poster has no nose at all on the carpeted areas so the ends of the false tread will show. (I'm done with carpeted stairs and here on houzz trying to figure out if I can now switch to all wood with a false tread. THAT's tricky!)

Thanks for the feedback, Amanda. Did you get these exact ones at Home Depot, or another brand?

Hi @suel41452! Sorry I wasn't able to get back to you soon. Had a long Halloween vacation with my family. Anyways, yeah, I got it from home depot but I bought my oak treads at Allstairs since they were on sale.

By the way @weedyacres, I am not a spammer, I just came here to help and learn other DIYers like me. :)
