A carpet runner enhances the look and feel of a room. Not only are carpet runners available in beautiful designs but they are also practical, providing protection and warmth to a hardwood or tiled floor.

The benefits of carpet runners

For all those high traffic areas in your home or where you have children constantly going to and fro through the house, then a carpet runner is an ideal solution. This is particularly so if you have expensive wall-to-wall carpet and are concerned about wear and tear.

Hallways, stairways and entrance halls are particularly suited to runners as they provide a means of visually connecting one room to another.

A carpet runner is easily cleaned and if damaged or worn can be easily removed and replaced. Vacuum your runner regularly and in those areas where the runner is not fixed to the floor, ensure that you vacuum under the rug as dust tends to fall through to the undersurface.

Stair runners are almost essential if you have a set of hardwood stairs. A carpet runner installed on your stairs has many advantages including:

  • Protection from wear and tear
  • Provides protection in case of falls
  • Softens the sound of heavy footsteps
  • Provides traction

Both carpet and stair runners are generally custom-made to suit your individual requirements. However, you can also purchase a carpet runner in a pre-cut length if you are not concerned about an exact fit.

When installing a carpet runner, ensure that you use rug pads to prevent slipping.
