Wool: The choice for stair runner carpet?

Stairs are high-traffic areas. They also need to be easy to keep clean.

Wool comes from nature and is durable, fire-resistant, and natural soil repellent. If, however, you prefer a synthetic fiber, nylon is suitable for heavily trafficked areas.

Do stairway carpets come in standard widths?

Yes, 24, 27, and 33 1/2 -inches, but it may not fit. On the other hand, this may be the perfect time to ask us about your stair runner.?

There should be several inches of bare floor showing on the sides of the treads. The actual amount depends upon stair size.?
