What's the best carpet for staircases and have you got any red ones you can show me?

Stair Carpets & Landings · Historic BCC Q&A archive

There is no single ‘best’ carpet for stairs — choices depend on traffic, maintenance and the finished look. Durable, low-pile woven constructions are often chosen for stair use because they resist crushing and show less wear; loop or cut-pile options each have trade-offs between texture and durability. Red carpets can provide a striking finish, but specific shades and current stock should be checked with the showroom. Some carpet ranges are available in wider formats, which can reduce joins; current widths vary by product and should be confirmed. For sample viewing and to discuss stair suitability and maintenance, contact the Taren Point showroom: 02 9526 6421, Unit 3/46 Bay Rd, Taren Point, NSW.
