How to Measure Your Stairs & Landing
To measure stairs for carpet, you’ll need a piece of paper, measuring tape and a pencil. With your trusty measuring tape, begin at the top and measure over the nose of the first stair and down to the tread. Then, we’ll show you how to measure the width, making sure to record the net measurements (exact measurements) for each step as you go. We’ll also explain how to measure curved stairs to give you the correct measurements, and so the carpet pile goes in the right direction all the way down. Finally, once you have all your measurements, we’ll show you how this will look on paper at the end – noting the direction of the carpet pile. Now you know how to measure your stairs and landing for carpet installation, get in touch with us at your nearest Tapi store.
