Carpeted stairs take a beating. Every trip up and down grinds grit into the nosing, the front edge of each step, and the landing at the head of the stairs soon shows a grey patch. Stairs also collect pet hair along the back of each tread where the vacuum head struggles to reach. In Coorparoo, carpeted stairs are common in townhouses, split-level postwar homes and renovated Queenslanders with a new upper floor.
Stairs cannot be done with a big floor wand, so the crew we book uses a smaller stair tool and upholstery-sized hand tools to clean each tread and riser. They pre-spray the nosings and the edges near the wall where dust builds up, then rinse and extract each step. The work is slower than an open room, which is why stairs are priced as their own item.
- Each tread, riser and nosing cleaned by hand tool
- Pre-spray on worn front edges and wall edges
- Landings and small hallways included on request
- Stain work on marks halfway up the flight
- Low-moisture option so the stairs can be used sooner
Because stairs are the path through the house, drying time matters. Ask about a lower-moisture clean if you need to use them within an hour or two, and keep socks on rather than bare feet while they dry so the steps stay clean. Handrails and walls are kept clear of the hoses while the work is under way.
Tell us how many steps, whether there is a landing, and whether the rest of the carpet needs doing. We will give you upfront pricing on the phone and book a crew who works around Coorparoo. Call 07 3543 9422 to book stair carpet cleaning.
