You don’t replace your stairs every year. That’s why it’s important to protect and maintain them properly. At Upstairs, we use durable materials and the hard-wearing Original Top Layer, ensuring that wear and tear from heavy use is kept to a minimum. However, there are also simple steps you can take yourself to keep your stairs in top condition.

How do you protect your stairs in everyday use?

Once your staircase has been renovated, it requires very little maintenance. However, there are a few good habits that can help prevent damage:

 

  • Do not use corrosive cleaning products. Clean your stairs with a soft, damp cloth and mild cleaning products.
  • Avoid concentrated pressure. Cover the stairs with sturdy cardboard during a move. Use tape that does not leave adhesive residue.
  • Remove stains immediately. This will prevent permanent discolouration.
When is extra protection needed
  • In new-build homes. Ensure that staircase renovation is carried out only during the final stage of construction, so that no damage occurs during the work.
  • For renovations. Ensure that floors and walls are finished first. This way, the staircase renovation will blend seamlessly with the rest of the interior.
