MN Mom on Mar 29, 2016You can have a full runner installed or just a tread carpet which just attaches to the stair tread top snd not the riser. Two different looks. Ask for some advice at your local home improvement store.Helpful Reply

Amy Rohde on Mar 30, 2016I wouldn't do treads.. they can be trip hazards and typically don't stay put.. If you need a runner (for safety or dogs, etc) I would do a full runner as you had planned. The change is pretty and dramatic!Helpful Reply

Wendy Mumbach on Mar 30, 2016I would do tread's. Installed mine two years ago and love them. We have 2 teenage boys, a large dog and 2 cats and I haven't had anyone trip!Helpful Reply

Julie Arteaga on Mar 31, 2016The stairs look fabulous. I didn't want my stairs covered but I did need something so everyone would stop slipping on them. I found these amazing stair treads on www.solutions.com they wash beautifully , have a variety of colors and don't need anything to keep them down. Good luckHelpful Reply
