Stair Runners

A stair runner can give your hallway a character of its own. Keep it calm with a neutral carpet, introduce a stripe or choose a border that picks up a favourite colour. Our Ottery St Mary team can help you bring the design and practical details together.

Start with your staircase

The shape of the stairs, the landing and the surrounding paintwork all influence the finished look. Bring photographs to the showroom and tell us what you would like to achieve. We will help you choose a carpet suitable for stairs and discuss the width and layout of the runner.

Make the edges part of the design

Many carpets can be made into runners. Whipping finishes the edge with yarn, while binding creates a border. Choose a similar colour for a subtle effect or a contrast to frame the carpet. Ask about our linen and leather binding options and stair rods to complement the look.

You can begin by comparing wool-rich carpets and synthetic carpets. We will guide you towards suitable ranges rather than choosing by appearance alone.

Measured and planned before you order

Turns, landings and finishing details need careful consideration. We offer a free home measure and a written estimate covering the runner, edge finishing, accessories and fitting arrangements.
