Stair carpet installation in Eagan, MN
Stairs take more punishment than any other spot in the house, and in a Minnesota home they also carry the salt and slush that boots drag in all winter. Carpet gives you traction, cuts the noise of footsteps, and stands up to the wear that bare treads show quickly.
TPM Flooring handles stair carpet from layout to finishing, including pad, tack strips, and clean wraps at each nosing. If you are carpeting a whole floor too, our carpet flooring page covers the main-level options.

Full carpet or a runner
Wall-to-wall carpet covers each tread and riser. It is the warmest and quietest choice, and it hides worn or mismatched wood beneath.
A runner sits down the center and leaves a strip of wood visible on each side. It suits staircases with handsome treads or painted risers. Runners are bound along the edges with a matching or contrasting band.
- Dense, low-pile nylon for stairs that get constant use
- Wool or wool-blend runners for a richer look
- Stain-resistant polyester for homes with pets and kids
- Custom binding colors to coordinate with trim

Why many families choose carpet on stairs
Wood stairs look great, but they can be slick in socks and loud at six in the morning. Carpet cushions a slip, improves grip for dogs, and keeps the stairwell calm. If you are still deciding, look at our hardwood stairs page and compare.

How the job goes
We remove the old covering, pad, and staples, then look at the treads. Loose boards are secured and squeaks are addressed first. After that we install fresh pad and tack strips and stretch the carpet snug so it keeps its shape. Seams are made out of sight, and the work carries our 1-year installation warranty.

It will mask the sound somewhat, but we address loose treads first so the squeak is really fixed. Once the stairs are solid, the new carpet is installed over them.
Often yes, if the treads are sound, and we take care not to ruin the wood. If you change your mind later, see our hardwood stairs or hardwood refinishing pages.
