How long does a typical installation take?

For a standard, straight staircase, we're usually in and out in just a few hours! More complex stairs with landings or curves might take a bit longer, but we always work efficiently to minimize any disruption to your day.

What kind of carpet is best for a stair runner?

That's a great question! We often recommend low-pile, durable carpets made from materials like wool or nylon. They hold up great to foot traffic and are easier to clean. We can walk you through the pros and cons of each option.

Do I need an underpad for my stair runner?

Absolutely! We always recommend it. An underpad not only makes the runner feel softer underfoot, but it also reduces noise and helps protect the carpet from wear and tear, extending its life significantly.

Stair Runner Installation

Why a Stair Runner is a Great Idea

It’s about more than just looks! A professionally installed stair runner offers some really practical benefits. First and foremost is safety. Hardwood stairs can be slippery, especially in socks. A runner provides much-needed traction to help prevent slips and falls. It also protects your beautiful hardwood from the daily wear and tear of foot traffic, scratches, and scuffs, preserving them for years to come. Plus, you'll immediately notice how much quieter your home is. The runner and its underpad absorb the sound of footsteps, which is a huge bonus in a busy household.

Our Georgetown Installation Process

We keep things simple and straightforward. It all starts with a friendly chat. We'll come by, measure your stairs, and talk about what you're looking for. We can discuss different installation styles, like the classic 'waterfall' method or the tailored 'Hollywood' (or bullnose) style that wraps around the edge of each step. There's no pressure, just good advice.

Once you've chosen your runner, we handle the rest. We prepare the stairs to make sure the surface is clean and smooth for a perfect fit. Then, we get to work on the installation, paying close attention to every detail, from making sure patterns line up perfectly to ensuring every single fastening is secure and hidden. We use high-quality underpad to give you that comfortable feel and extra durability. When we're done, we clean everything up, leaving you with nothing but a beautiful, safer staircase to enjoy.

"I found Delight Flooring by fluke, and I ended being very lucky. From the initial quote till the end of the flooring being completed, I only received nice and professional services from the workers of Delight Flooring. The work in itself was great, I am very satisfied with what they delivered. If timing is an important factor for you, I can say that they did the work in the amount of days promised, without rushing to finish the work. I highly recommend this company for any flooring work you are seeking to do"

"Rudy is amazing and hasn't let me down yet. We all know how hard it can be dealing with contractors these days. They promise the moon but don't deliver. With Rudy, things are very different. If he promises, he will deliver. I have gotten 3 projects done with Rudy. There were nominal delays but Rudy is very professional and communicative. The first one was hardwood for about 800 sqft, the second one was hardwood for 1000 sqft and the third one was over 1500 sqft plus stairs. There were some problems with the stairs and Rudy was out of the country for a long time. However, as soon as he came back, he came to my house and fixed it, no charge."
