    I am looking for stair runners and love your video. I have to add I love Ollie’s I bought a few really nice quality plush carpet with a pattern hallway runners and took them to a carpet store and they cut and put them together to make a 22 foot for my long hallway.

    Thank you for this. I just did my stairs today because you showed me how. Now it took way longer than you did and I overlapped on one part but for what the carpet companies wanted it looks super nice. Got my carpet at Ollie too. 10 bucks. Used 5 pieces.

    Nice job! Looks great, for those watching it may help to use a rug pad and carpet tape underneath the main runner to keep it secure and so it doesn’t slip over time. Either way, huge bang for the buck, thanks for posting!

  • @carolhodges9899
    @carolhodges9899 4 роки тому +7

    That turned out so great, and it looked pretty easy! I’ll be curious how well they hold up. But, even if they only last a couple years, you know you can easily do it again if you have to!! And, you could do it a bunch of times for what it would have cost to have a professional do it!! Well done!!! 👏👏👏

    • @sulblazer
      @sulblazer 3 роки тому +1

      Same here, I'm wondering how they held up. They look fantastic to be sure, but I wonder if, over time as the rug wears, strands of fibers will begin to stick up and poke at your feet? Any issues there? Even if they did, it would seem like a simple fix as well.

    I’m doing a remodel in my moms finished basement and I had the same idea which is why I looked for videos that did the same. I told my mom, let’s check Ollie’s, once this pandemic is over! I’m looking for same exact natural sea grass carpets too! Happy to know I may have luck coming across some there.
    Tip* anyone wanting to do this if you don’t want to add staples/nails to treads, like they did, you can buy a roll of 2-sided carpet tape to hold carpet in place and keep debris from going underneath the carpet.

    Looks great! You made it look so easy, and THANK YOU for the Harbor Freight tool reminder. My son is installing runner stair carpet to basement as I type this. I did add carpet padding on steps only (not risers). But I have a question - how do you plan to clean the stair carpet? Spot cleaning? I'm not really sure how I will clean mine, as it is more like a mat, as is yours, than actual pile carpet. Carpet steamer maybe? I could use some tips in this area. Thanks!

    On the bottom edge of first stair, to keep from fraying- put some stop fray glue (you can pick up at Walmart in sewing section) or us a little Modpodge.

  • @chrissy212e
    @chrissy212e 3 роки тому +1

    Very nice but I think I would of found longer runners so it was less work for me I have to small staircases so I may do this as well as I've just painted my stairs and varnished them luckily they are not slippery. I cant buy one of those air staples just for my little project but I will look into a cheaper way to do mine. Looks really nice hope the runners are comfortable to walk on.

  • @woosterlaxmom5664
    @woosterlaxmom5664 3 роки тому

    Can you give us an update on how the carpet runner has held up? Any things you would have done differently? I have a 100 year old home and the stairs were torn up by the nails of the previous owners dogs. I want to paint them black and put in a runner, possibly using Berber Carpet and using Instabind to edge it, but I like the idea of using small runners to save money and the time to hand bind the carpet. Would you suggest using double-faced carpet tape in the center of the step to keep it from shifting? How is it wearing? Thanks for your video.

    Could you have air gun stapled the runners together 'Before' you place them on the stairs. This would eliminate the need for cutting then fraying.
