How Does It Work?
It cannot get easier. When you contact us and discuss your stair runners or stair treads project, we schedule a visit to your place at your continent time.
- During the first visit, one of our experts brings various samples of runners and treads to your place to help you choose the one that best meets the requirements of your staircase and complements the décor and style of the place. During this visit, you can consult with our experts and get a quote.
- Next, after you select the product, we immediately schedule another time for the stair runner or stair treads installation at your earliest convenience.
- When the time comes, our crew members come to your place once again and bring everything needed for a customized carpet runner or installation of step treads (made of wood, vinyl, and carpet).
For example, instead of cutting the carpet in our workshop and bringing the piece to your place, our team brings the roll and runs it down your stairs to make sure it is tailored for your specific staircase. After it is cut, we use our binding machine to stitch the raw edge on the site. This is also true for hallways and landings.
- Our team secures the step treads and runners on the stairway and checks them to make sure they are not loose.
- In the end, the customer inspects the quality of the installation and makes the payment.
And just like that, you will have excellent custom carpet stair runners or treads that are professionally installed without leaving your home once!
Now, let’s have a look at the products we offer.
Carpet Runners for Staircases, Hallways, and Landings
Runners are long and narrow strips of carpet that run down the center of the stairs. They are a bit different from fully carpeted stairs in that the edges of the stairs are exposed, not covered. Additionally, installing a carpet runner is more economical than fully carpeted stairs.
You can choose a stair carpet that complements your home or office’s décor by selecting the right material, color, and design.
Minuteman Floors provides
- polyester carpet runners,
- nylon carpet runners,
- and wool carpet runners.
Among these, polyester stair carpets are the most budget-friendly but are not as durable as nylon and wool carpets.
Our wide range of colors and designs make it easier for you to match the runner on the stairs with your current flooring and style. You can also go with vibrant colors or classic patterns to add visual interest to the staircase.
In addition to stairs, carpet runners are widely used in landings and hallways as well. They not only elevate the aesthetic charm of the place but also reduce the noise by absorbing the sound of footsteps.
Wood Stair Treads, Vinyl Stair Treads, Carpeted Stair Treads
Stair treads are mainly used to provide safety and prevent slips and falls. While stair runners are one long piece of carpet running down the staircase, stair treads are small pieces of carpet, wood, vinyl, etc. attached on top of every individual step to add traction and minimize damage to the flooring.
At Minuteman Floors, we offer hundreds of various long-lasting non-slip stair treads made from
- wood (engineered or hardwood stair treads, such as oak stair treads)
- vinyl,
- and carpet (polyester, nylon, and wool).
These first-rate step treads are necessary for high-traffic places and homes with children and pets. And, if chosen tastefully, they can improve the style by adding visual interest to the staircase.
We customize the runners and treads for each staircase’s requirements and your preferences. Call to schedule an appointment.
