Why Use Stair Tread Carpets?

Carpet stair treads are an asset for every home, offering beauty as well as safety. Not only do they protect against slips and falls, they also cushion every step you, your family, and your guests take on the stairs. This cushioning saves wear and tear on your joints and muscles, and minimizes noise, adding comfort while decreasing danger. In addition to helping protect your comfort and your safety, stair tread rugs and carpets also protect your stairs themselves. The action of walking up and down on the steps each day slowly wears away at the wood, leaving patches where the finish has been damaged and, eventually, hurting the wood itself. Stair tread carpet absorbs the abuse that years of walking can cause. And, since the individual treads are easy to install and replace, they can be changed out once they start to look worn or when you decide to redecorate.

How do you clean carpet stair treads?

Stair treads are best cleaned with the use of a vacuum cleaner, but for any trapped fibers and hairs that occur over time, keep a nail brush handy and give your treads a thorough brush every few weeks. Sometimes they might have to be removed for a proper clean, but this is unlikely and usually only happens with a serious spill.

How do you put down stair treads?

There are several ways to put down stair treads. Most commonly, flat and adhered to the step with either double-sided tape or glue. Sometimes you can attach stair treads with nails, but most people consider this overkill.

What can I use for stair treads?
