AAA Aussie Carpets

Stair carpet & custom work in Melbourne

Stairs are where a carpet layer's skill really shows. We take the time to get every tread, riser and winder tight and crisp.

Stairs done properly

Stairs take the most wear in a house and are the first place poor workmanship shows. Every step is measured, cut and fitted individually, with the carpet stretched hard over each nosing so it stays tight for years.

  • Straight stairs, open stairs and curved or winder stairs
  • Landings matched seamlessly to hallway carpet
  • Waterfall finish or wrapped (Hollywood-style) finish
  • Stair runners with exposed timber edges
  • Heavy-duty underlay suited to stair wear

Waterfall or wrapped?

A waterfall finish runs the carpet over the nosing and straight down to the next tread — quick and clean. A wrapped finish tucks the carpet tightly under each nosing for a tailored look. We'll show you both and recommend what suits your stairs and carpet.

Custom work

Odd-shaped rooms, bay windows, curved walls, built-in robes and joining carpet to other floors all need careful planning and cutting. Tell us what you've got and we'll make it work.

Common questions

Can you carpet winder stairs?

Yes. Winder (turning) stairs are fitted step by step, with each winder cut and stretched individually for a tight, neat finish.

What carpet is best for stairs?

A dense, hard-wearing carpet such as a tight loop or short cut pile in wool or nylon, over a firm underlay, holds up best on stairs.

Can you do stairs only?

Yes. We regularly carpet just the stairs and landing, and can match them to existing carpet where possible.
