You’ve no doubt spent a long time thinking about the interior design of your home and have carefully decorated every room. Have you given any thought to the look of your staircase? Your staircase really should be seen as a piece of furniture and can certainly be described as a real focal point in your home. So choose stair tread coverings that complement the rest of your home’s décor. Looking for inspiration? Here are five types of stair coverings to get you started. Which one will you choose?
Are you a big fan of wood and do you have lots of wooden furniture? Then you might also want to cover your stairs with stair treads that have a wood-effect finish. Our stair treads are finished with our Upstairs Original Top Coat. A durable material that is scratch- and wear-resistant and, what’s more, very easy to maintain. The wood-effect stair treads are available in a wide range of designs to suit any interior style.
Fabric stair coverings used to be a staple in any home, but these days they are rarely chosen because they trap a lot of dirt and dust. What’s more, many people are allergic to them. Although carpet on your stairs has its advantages (it feels soft, dampens sound and is non-slip), we still recommend saying goodbye to carpet on your stairs. With the Upstairs Original Top Layer, your stairs are scratch- and wear-resistant, and thanks to the special application of foam adhesive used to fix the steps in place, your stairs are also sound-absorbing. And, perhaps most importantly of all: cleaning becomes child’s play, as you can clean your stairs very easily with a slightly damp cloth! No more fiddly business trying to vacuum your stairs from top to bottom.
Do you dream of a unique staircase that looks elegant yet has a cool, rugged edge? Choose leather stair cladding and you’ll be able to show off your staircase for years to come! Leather only gets better with age, and the same goes for your staircase!
Would you like a concrete staircase, but you have a wooden one? At Upstairs, you can opt for a concrete-look finish on your staircase, such as the Blended Cement or Cloudy Cement finishes. That way, you get the concrete look without the drawbacks of concrete, which often feels cold and is difficult to clean.
Fans of the industrial look are absolutely smitten with metal stair tread cladding, and they’re absolutely right! If you’re brave enough to go for metal, you’ll enjoy a unique eye-catcher in your home for a lifetime. Choose our exclusive blue steel product or our Blue Ice design, which has the look of steel but not the specific properties of a natural product.
Whether you opt for a wood-effect, concrete-effect, metal or leather finish, stair tread covers ensure your staircase always complements your personal style perfectly. With a staircase renovation by Upstairs, your staircase will look as good as new, without any chopping or breaking. We fit the stair tread covers over your existing staircase. You choose the material and style, and with our lifetime guarantee, you can enjoy your beautiful new staircase covering for years to come without a care in the world.
