How To Choose The Best Carpet For Your Staircase (According To Merry)

When choosing the best carpet for your staircase there are many factors to be considered, including durability, style, safety, and maintenance.

Here are Merry’s Top 5 tips to guide you in selecting the ideal carpet:

Durability:

Staircases endure heavy foot and paw traffic, so prioritise a carpet that is specifically designed for high-traffic areas. Look for carpets with tightly woven fibres, high-density construction, and durable materials such as nylon or wool. These options offer excellent resilience and can withstand the wear and tear of daily use.

Style and Aesthetic:

Consider the overall style and aesthetic of your home when selecting a carpet for your staircase. Opt for a carpet that compliments your existing interior design, whether it’s a plush, luxurious carpet for an elegant look or a patterned carpet to add visual interest. Keep in mind that neutral colours tend to be more versatile and can adapt to different decor styles over time.
