{"ai_json_enabled":true,"answer":"For stairs where you want to minimise pile distortion at bends, there isn\u2019t a single \u2018best\u2019 carpet. Durability, pile density and appropriate underlay are key. Woven-textured loop and dense plush-pile carpets in wool are generally good choices for stairs as they resist crushing and wear. To reduce piling on bends, opt for lower-pile options and consider darker colours or patterns to conceal wear. Availability of wider widths varies by product. For current options and samples, contact the Taren Point showroom on 02 9526 6421 or visit Unit 3/46 Bay Rd, Taren Point, NSW. We can help with fabric choices and measurements for your staircase.","category":"Stair Carpets & Landings","category_slug":"stair-carpets-landings","confidence":"legacy_question_current_safe_answer","date_note":"Exact individual question timestamp was not present in the saved legacy Q&A page.","date_precision":"archive_page_not_individual_question","date_published":"","date_source":"legacy_wordpress_archive_page_metadata","editor_images":[],"editor_videos":[],"freshness_warning":"Products, prices, stock, opening hours and installation timing can change.
