Measure Stairs for Carpet Flooring It KC

The Reason We Request You Send Your Measurements to Us is.

 All The stairs have to fit within a 12-foot-wide piece of carpet and most the time you cannot even depend on 12 ft wide. Manufacturers to save money will actually produce carpet in 11ft 11inch and 11ft 10inch and you have to figure they will do that to every piece of carpet, or you will be short.


  • Examples of what to send to us to be figured.
  • 36 inch wide and 20 inches for 9 box steps
  • 43 inch wide and 22 inches for 4 wrapped steps
  • 36 inch wide and 50 inches for landing
  • We always add an extra 3 steps to make sure we have enough carpet.
  • All you need is a Measuring tape, pen and paper to measure stairs
  • If you have any Questions, simply contact us we will be happy to help.

How to Measure wrapped stairs for carpet

 Begin by measuring from the wall and over the edge of the stair and under, adding 2 inches to that measurement. Next, measure from the bottom of the stair up and over the nose to the next bottom of the stair, again adding another 2 inches. Don't forget to count the total number of stairs you have. For instance, you might arrive at a measurement of 46 by 22 for 12 wrapped stairs. Once you have the width, length, and total number of wrapped stairs, send this information to us. We will then provide you with amount of carpet you should purchase.
