FAQs

What material is the stair runner made from?

The stair runner is crafted from 100% stain-resistant polypropylene with a 9mm plush pile and a natural jute hessian backing.

How do I clean the stair runner?

You can vacuum it regularly. For spills, blot immediately. Most stains can be spot-cleaned with mild detergent and water, and it is also bleach-cleanable.

Is this runner suitable for heavy traffic areas?

Yes, it is designed to withstand heavy traffic due to its Wilton-grade construction and durable polypropylene material.

Can I cut the runner to my exact stair size?

The runner is professionally finished to the exact size you choose, so you should order your precise measurements. It is not designed to be cut by the user after delivery.

What is the pile height of the runner?

The runner features a plush 9mm pile height, providing a cushioned feel underfoot.

Will the colors fade over time?

The runner is resistant to fading, designed to maintain its color appearance even with regular use and exposure.

What type of backing does the runner have?

It features a natural jute hessian backing, which helps to securely anchor every tuft and maintain the runner's shape.

Troubleshooting

Runner is not lying flat or is uneven.

Ensure the stairs are clean and dry. Reapply double-sided tape or adhesive strips, ensuring even pressure. Check that the runner is correctly sized for the stairs.

Visible stains that are difficult to remove.

For stubborn stains, try a slightly more concentrated (but still diluted) bleach solution, testing in a hidden spot first. Blot, do not rub. For very old or set-in stains, professional cleaning might be necessary.

Fraying edges.

The Wilton-grade construction is designed to prevent fraying. If fraying occurs, it might be due to excessive friction or snagging. Trim any loose fibers carefully with scissors and ensure no sharp objects are dragging across the runner.

Runner moves or slips.

The existing adhesive may have failed or the surface is not ideal. Clean the back of the runner and the stair surface, then reapply fresh, high-quality double-sided carpet tape or consider using stair runner clips for a more secure fix.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly durable and long-lasting due to its construction materials.
  • Comfortable underfoot with its thick, plush pile.
  • Easy to clean and maintain, with stain and bleach resistance.
  • Designed to withstand heavy daily use without compromising appearance.
  • Resistant to fading, static, and moths for extended aesthetic appeal.

Cons

  • Custom sizing means incorrect measurements can lead to fitting issues.
  • Requires careful handling during cleaning to avoid damaging the fibers.
  • While stain-resistant, severe spills may still require prompt and thorough cleaning.
  • The jute hessian backing may not be suitable for extremely damp environments.
  • As a runner, it may not cover the entire width of all stair treads, depending on installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This stair runner is professionally finished to your chosen size. Ensure accurate measurements of your staircase before ordering. The runner is typically secured using double-sided carpet tape, adhesive strips, or stair runner clips. Apply the chosen method to the back of the runner or directly to the stairs, ensuring a firm and even application to prevent movement.

Compatibility:

This runner is designed for standard indoor staircases. The jute hessian backing provides a stable base but should be kept dry. It is compatible with most stair materials, including wood, laminate, and carpeted stairs (if laying over existing carpet).

Care:

  • Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum regularly using a standard vacuum cleaner. Avoid using a vacuum with a rotating beater bar on high pile settings, as this can cause damage. A suction-only setting is recommended.
  • Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot the affected area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent mixed with water and a damp cloth. Always test cleaning solutions in an inconspicuous area first.
  • Bleach Cleaning: For stubborn stains, diluted household bleach can be used. Apply sparingly with a damp cloth and rinse thoroughly with clean water afterward. Ensure good ventilation when using bleach.
  • General Maintenance: Rotate the runner periodically if possible to ensure even wear. Keep the area around the runner clean to prevent dirt buildup.
