FAQs About Custom Stair Runners
Can you install stair runners on curved or spiral stairs?
Yes! Our team is experienced in creating runners for curved, winding, or custom staircases using precise cuts and careful installation.
What carpet materials work best for stair runners?
We recommend dense, low-pile carpets with durable backing—such as wool, nylon, or performance blends—for longevity and traction.
Will a stair runner damage my hardwood stairs?
No. When installed properly, stair runners can actually protect your stairs. We use non-damaging methods that preserve the wood beneath.
Can I match my stair runner to an area rug or hallway carpet?
Absolutely! We can cut your stair runner and area rugs from the same carpet style for a seamless, coordinated look.

We are very happy with our recent carpet purchase at Carpets Plus. Alison is well experienced in the selections and qualities of the hundreds of carpet and floor coverings offered at Carpets Plus. She helped us pick carpet and flooring for four rooms that was practical and competitively priced. The installation went smoothly. Also, Martin measured efficiently all our rooms and made excellent recommendations. We know you’ll appreciate their personal attention.
David Maher
We set a date. They came and installed everything the same day. They left the place spotless as well. The entire operation went smoothly from the start. We picked out the vinyl and carpet and 3 weeks later it was done. No problems .

Adam and Mary guided us through the process with integrity and professionalism. The demo and installation went flawlessly and their team of professionals provided us with a quality installation. We could not be more pleased with the design, installation and quality of service that we received. CarpetPlus Flooring Design takes pride in all aspects of the flooring process they will be handling all of my flooring needs in the future.
