Carpeted Stairs
Carpet is a popular choice for staircases. Many people choose carpet because their upstairs is also carpeted. Carpet provides a safer surface for stairs in the event of falls.
It absorbs less noise than timber. Carpet is more difficult to clean than timber. This is especially true when you consider how many people use your stairs every day. Carpeted stairs are prone to staining, especially if there are pets or children.
To remove dirt and other debris from your carpet, you will need to vacuum it on a regular basis. Professional steam cleaning is also necessary. It is important to keep your carpet clean due to allergens that can get trapped in it. Carpeted stairs are more susceptible to wear and tear so choose a low-pile carpet so that it doesn’t get matted.
Timber Stairs
The aesthetics are one of the many benefits of a timber staircase. Timber can elevate the appearance of your staircase and, with the right finish and colour, can be matched seamlessly to any style.
Timber is easy to maintain as it doesn’t trap dirt like carpet. All you have to do is sweep the stairs regularly and clean up any spillages. Non-slip products are also used to treat timber stairs.
You can choose high-quality timber to make your stairs. It is durable and can withstand daily abuse. Timber can also be sanded and refinished. You can change the appearance of your stairs as you like.
