At Flaherty's Flooring America, we believe your staircase should look as beautiful as the rest of your home while adding comfort and safety to every step. A custom stair runner in TX protects your stairs, softens sound, improves traction, and introduces a polished design element that enhances your interior. With two convenient showrooms in Cypress and The Woodlands, our teams help homeowners across the greater Houston area select and install stair runners that fit their style, budget, and daily life.
A stair runner is a tailored strip of carpet installed down the center of your staircase. It leaves a margin of wood, laminate, or tile visible on each side for a balanced and refined look. The result is a staircase that feels warmer, safer, and more inviting without sacrificing the character of your existing stairs.
Our showrooms carry a wide variety of stair runner materials and patterns so you can create a look that suits your home. Whether your style is modern, traditional, coastal, or eclectic, our design specialists will help you select a material that meets your performance needs and complements your décor.
Finishing details matter. We offer custom binding and serging options for a crisp edge and stair rod accents for homeowners who want a classic, decorative detail. Our team will help you evaluate pile height, density, and backing to ensure your runner performs well on straight, curved, or switchback stairs.

Installing a stair runner requires precise planning and experienced craftsmanship. Our process ensures a perfect fit, secure placement, and a beautiful finish from top to bottom.
With simple care, your stair runner will look beautiful for years. Vacuum regularly to remove dust and grit. Address spills quickly with blotting and approved cleaners for the fiber type. Schedule periodic professional cleanings to refresh fibers and maintain appearance. Our team will provide product-specific care recommendations at installation.
The right stair runner can elevate the entire entry experience. A subtle heathered neutral pairs well with rustic and transitional interiors. A tailored stripe can add movement and guide the eye upward in contemporary spaces. A classic geometric can tie together patterns used in nearby rugs and upholstery. If you want to highlight the wood species on your treads, choose a carpet runner width that leaves a balanced reveal on each side. If your goal is maximum softness, consider a slightly thicker cushion that maintains a stable, secure feel underfoot.
