Laying new hybrid floors downstairs and leaving old carpet on the stairs can look unfinished. Hybrid boards can be used on stairs, but stairs take more care than flat floors.
Short answer
Yes, hybrid flooring can go on stairs. The boards are glued and fixed to each tread rather than floated, and a matching stair nosing finishes and protects the front edge. Stairs are priced separately from floor area because each step is cut and fitted by hand.
How it's done
- Old carpet and grippers are removed.
- Treads and risers are checked and made solid.
- Boards are cut, glued and fixed to each tread.
- A nosing caps every step edge.
Safety
Nosings with a grip strip help stop slips, which matters with kids, pets and wet feet coming in from the pool.
