Installing carpet on stairs requires a product that can withstand the sharp bend over the stair nose without the backing showing or the fibers shearing prematurely. Many Pet Perfect® styles are suitable for this application. During installation, professional installers should use a high-quality, firm cushion specifically rated for stair use to ensure the carpet is properly supported and secure. We emphasize the importance of professional installation for stairways, as poor tensioning can cause the carpet to shift or create safety hazards. Ensure your installer follows the guidelines regarding nap direction and tensioning. By selecting a durable, high-density Pet Perfect® style, you are providing your stairs with a slip-resistant, comfortable, and long-lasting surface that stands up to the daily demands of a busy household.
