How can we make over carpeted stairs to something low maintenance?
We have 12-13 carpeted steps going up from basement /garage to main level. We are going to remove carpet but don't know what to do with steps after that. We need an easy DYI project that will look good and require little maintenance. Ideas? Pictures welcomed!
