Product Information

Full details

The Caesar Stair Runner is designed for homeowners seeking to add comfort, elegance, and durability to their staircases. Its key benefit is providing a soft, cushioned feel underfoot with robust stain and wear resistance, making it ideal for high-traffic areas. A potential caveat is that it requires professional finishing to your exact size, meaning it's not an off-the-shelf solution for immediate installation. This runner features a 9mm pile height, Wilton-grade construction for longevity, and is made from 100% stain-resistant polypropylene.

FAQs

What is the thickness of the Caesar Stair Runner?

The Caesar Stair Runner has a pile thickness of 9mm, providing a comfortable and cushioned feel.

Is this runner suitable for very busy hallways?

Yes, it is classified as 'Heavy Domestic', meaning it is designed and suitable for high-traffic areas in domestic locations, including busy hallways and staircases.

Can I clean this runner with bleach?

Yes, the runner is 100% bleach cleanable. This allows for effective cleaning of stubborn stains. Always test in an inconspicuous area first and rinse thoroughly.

How is the runner supplied?

The Caesar Stair Runner is professionally finished to the exact size you order. This means it is custom-cut to your specified dimensions.

What type of backing does the runner have?

It features a strong, natural jute hessian backing that securely holds the carpet tufts in place, preventing snagging and wear.

Will the colour fade in sunlight?

No, the polypropylene material is resistant to fading from UV sunlight, helping to maintain its original colour even in well-lit areas.

Is this runner suitable for pets?

Yes, the stain-resistant properties and durability make it a practical choice for homes with pets. Regular cleaning will help manage any pet-related soiling or wear.

Troubleshooting

Runner appears to be fraying at the edges.

Ensure the runner was professionally finished to size. Minor fraying might occur during initial installation; trim carefully if necessary. Contact the supplier if significant fraying persists, as it may indicate a manufacturing defect.

Stains are difficult to remove.

Act quickly on spills. For stubborn stains, use a diluted bleach solution (following product instructions and testing first). If the stain persists, professional cleaning may be required.

Runner is not laying flat.

Check the installation method. Ensure the stairs are clean and dry, and that the runner is adequately secured with appropriate grippers or adhesive. Allow time for the runner to settle after installation.

Flattening of the pile in high-traffic areas.

Rotate rug placement if possible (though less applicable for runners). Regular vacuuming with appropriate settings can help maintain pile integrity. The Wilton-grade construction is designed to resist flattening, but very heavy, continuous use may eventually show minor compression.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This carpet runner is professionally finished to your exact specified size. It is designed to be installed on existing stairs. Ensure your stairs are clean and dry before installation. The runner is typically secured using stair gripper rods or strong adhesive tape suitable for carpets. Consult with a professional installer if you are unsure about the best method for your specific staircase.

Compatibility: Suitable for use on most standard indoor staircases. It is designed for heavy domestic use and is compatible with underfloor heating systems as it is anti-static.

Care: To maintain its appearance and longevity:

Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum your runner regularly to remove surface dust and debris. Use a standard vacuum cleaner without a rotating brush head if possible, to avoid excessive wear on the pile.
Spot Cleaning: For fresh spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a solution of mild detergent and water, or a diluted bleach solution (test in an inconspicuous area first). Always rinse the area with clean water afterwards and allow to dry thoroughly.
Deep Cleaning: For a more thorough clean, consider professional carpet cleaning services periodically.
Avoid Soaking: Do not saturate the runner with water, as this can affect the backing and subfloor.
Moth Protection: The material is naturally moth-proof, but regular cleaning helps maintain its condition.
