HELP! What kind of carpet for stairs?
Comments (3)I agree. There is berber carpeting in a house we occupy and it never looks good or clean no matter how we attempt to maintain it. It is installed in a small hallway and down a staircase. Three adults and one small dog and the carpet is an ugly mess. I recently replaced the berber carpet in a public room at at church with a product more suited to the venue and use. Berber is a poor choice for most any situation where significant traffic and use is expected....See MoreI need help with patterned carpet on my stairs & mixing up patterns!
Comments (18)I'm having fun in PS with all your samples/pictures but what a conundrum :o Do you like blue? On my screen I see blue in that beautiful leopard rug and of course the dusty French blue goes great with the wood you chose. Do you have blue elsewhere in the house? Looking at the sample laying on the rug, it's the bottom row, third from the left. Personally, I stay away from colors that tend to look dingy or dull so I would want to go bright or darker...darker stair cases are usually more dramatic (around here). I see a lot of these stair runners or carpeted stairs. My husband cuts (has them bound) and installs countless stair runners. Yesterday's job was supposed to a runner but the customer changed her mind and did a full coverage of her staircase. This is what he installed 130 yds of so it wasn't just the stairs (not the actual house). Good luck. Can't wait to see which color you choose....See MoreCarpeted Stair Reno Needs Help!

Comments (4)Well, if you decide to stay with the solid tread/risers (IMHO... the best, but I'm biased), and you remove the side boards... the best application would be to replace the treads, because if you keep them, the exposed ends would need to have, what we call "returns", and it's probably not feasible to add them to the existing treads....See MoreMs Jam
