Hardwood Floors

Hardwood floors and stairs are on the rise with homeowners who previously opted for carpet in their homes. Hardwood floors are durable and can be cost-effective considering the longevity they can have.

The one part of hardwood flooring that can be a struggle for our customers is hardwood stairs because they can be very slippery when descending. Falling down on hardwood stairs is a common issue homeowners face.

Installing carpet on hardwood stairs

Installing carpet on your hardwood stairs is one of the best ways to eliminate slipping. Carpet not only provides an inviting feeling in your house, but it also makes slipping/ tripping less likely.

Carpets may be added as stair runners or wall to wall carpeting on your stairs. Stair runners are the most popular choice because they provide a touch of elegance while still providing the needed safety precaution on hardwood stairs. Stair runners will not only keep you safe, but they also serve as a decent noise absorber for going up and downstairs.

Your stairway is a focal point of your home and may be one of the first aspects people notice when they walk through your door. And making sure that your home’s stairway is both beautiful and unique can create a lasting impact on anyone who enters your house. If you are struggling to figure out ideas to remodel your home stairway, there are many ways to spruce it up.
