Stairs & Landing Carpets – Supply & Fit in West Sussex
Stairs take more punishment than any other floor in your house. The carpet sits on a narrow edge and takes the full weight of every step. We specialise in supplying and fitting specialist stair carpets and runners across West Sussex. Whether you want a full carpet for safety or a stylish runner with stair rods, we ensure a safe, secure, and beautiful finish.
Best Carpet Types for Stairs
Safety and durability are paramount. You need a carpet with a high density so the backing doesn't show when bent over the stair nosing. Wool twists and loops are excellent for resilience. Nylon is extremely tough. Avoid cheap, low-density foam-backed carpets—they will wear through on the nose very quickly. For a stylish feature, Sisal or flatweave runners are incredibly popular and hard-wearing.
Popular Colours for Stairs
Stairs are often the first thing people see when entering. Stripes are incredibly popular as they draw the eye up and hide wear effectively. Mid-tones and heathers are practical choices. Many customers choose a statement colour or pattern for the stairs and landing that complements but doesn't match the hallway or bedrooms, creating a distinct "zone".
Supply & Fit or Fitting-Only
Stair fitting is a skilled trade. Our supply and fit service ensures you get the right grade of carpet—we won't sell you something that will fail on the nosings! We measure winders and landings accurately to keep joins to a minimum. If you have your own carpet, our fitting-only service provides the expert installation needed for safety—secure fixing is vital on stairs to prevent trips and falls.
Why Choose an Independent Fitter?
Stair fitting requires patience and skill, especially on winders (curved steps). Big chains often allocate tight time slots fitting, leading to rushed work. We take the time to bolster properly into the crotch of the stair and ensure winders are pattern-matched where possible. We can also install stair rods and whipping detailing that many general fitters avoid.
