We measure, supply and fit stair carpets and custom-made stair runners across Chorley from our shop on Steeley Lane: straight flights, winders, landings and open-plan staircases, fitted by our own team. Every staircase is different, so every price is a custom quote. The home measure is free, and your quotation arrives within 24 hours.
Two ways to dress your stairs
A fitted stair carpet covers every step from wall to wall. A stair runner is a strip of carpet up the middle that leaves the edges of the stairs showing. Both are measured and made for your staircase.
Know your staircase
Stairs take more wear than any other floor in the house because every footstep lands on the same front edge of each step, called the nosing. That’s where a worn stair carpet goes bald or “grins”, showing the backing through the pile.
What makes a stair carpet last
Choosing carpet for stairs
The best carpet for stairs is dense and short-to-medium pile, such as a twist or a wool-rich blend, in a mid-tone or flecked colour. It resists crushing on the nosing and hides everyday marks.

Custom-made runners
A stair runner is made to measure for your staircase, so you choose the design, the width and the edge finish. With hundreds of colours and patterns to choose from, we bring runner samples to your free home measure so you can see them on your own stairs.
One colour for a calm, classic finish
Bold lines that lead the eye up the stairs
A herringbone carpet runner adds texture and a tailored, period look
A contrasting edge that frames the runner
Why choose a runner? It softens footsteps on wooden stairs, adds grip underfoot, and protects the stair surface while keeping the wood or paint on show.
How wide should a runner be? Most runners leave roughly 7–15 cm (3–6 inches) of stair showing on each side. Yours is cut to suit your stair width.
Custom pricing
Every staircase is different, so we price stairs with a custom quote after a free home measure, not a fixed “from” price. Your quotation arrives within 24 hours.

Local know-how
Narrow, steep flights in Chorley East and around the town centre, where a dense carpet or a runner wears best.
Turns with winders in Clayton-le-Woods, Astley Village and Whittle-le-Woods, often with the stairs, landing and hallway done together.
In Buckshaw Village, Euxton and Coppull, builder-grade stair carpet often wears first, so many owners upgrade the stairs and landing.
If your dog comes in from Yarrow Valley or Astley Park and heads straight upstairs, choose a stain-resistant cut pile in a flecked mid-tone.

Every staircase is different, so we give a custom quote after a free home measure rather than a fixed price. The cost depends on the number of steps, any winders and the landing, and the carpet or runner you choose. Your quotation arrives within 24 hours.
A dense, short-to-medium pile carpet, such as a twist or a wool-rich blend, in a mid-tone or flecked colour, fitted over firm stair underlay.
A fitted carpet is warmer, quieter and covers the whole step. A runner shows off painted or wooden stair edges and suits period and modern painted staircases. We bring samples of both to your free measure.
Yes. Our stair runners are custom-made and measured for your staircase, with hundreds of colours and patterns to choose from.
Yes, herringbone is one of the patterned runner styles you can choose. Ask to see herringbone samples at your free home measure.
Most stair runners leave roughly 7–15 cm (3–6 inches) of the stair showing on each side. Your runner is cut to suit your staircase, and we’ll show you the width options at your free measure.
Yes. Underlay under a runner makes each step more comfortable, helps the runner grip and helps it last. It’s cut slightly narrower than the runner so none shows at the edges.
Yes. Runners can be fitted on straight flights and on winding stairs, with each winder measured and cut individually.
Yes. Stair underlay is crushed more than anywhere else in the house, and old underlay makes a new carpet wear out faster.
The nosing, the front edge of each step, takes every footstep. Long piles, low-density carpet and worn underlay all speed up wear. A dense carpet over firm underlay lasts much longer.
Yes. Winders, the triangular turning steps, are each measured and cut individually so the carpet fits tightly on every step.
We stock carpets from trusted UK manufacturers including Abingdon Flooring, Lifestyle Flooring, Carpet Line Direct, Likewise Floors and Witch Group. We’ll bring stair-suitable samples to your free home measure.
You can, but the stairs need a harder-wearing carpet. Many customers choose a dense carpet for the stairs and landing and a softer one for the bedrooms in a matching colour.
Yes. Uplift and disposal of the old carpet and underlay are on your quote, and they’re free for pensioners.
Yes. LVT or laminate in the hallway with carpet on the stairs and landing is one of the most popular combinations we fit.
Yes. You get a 10% discount if you bring any written quote, and pensioners get free uplift and removal of their old carpet.
