Hall Stairs & Landing

[Anne27]

I am shortly replacing my h/s/landing with a new carpet.
Before i do this i am thinking of replacing with wood/laminate.
Has anybody got this done???
Am worried about safety,are they slippy/dangerous,worried about
falling down the stairs.!!!
any advise welcome.
2 adults 2 teens in house so no toddlers/rugrats.
cheers anne

hi anne, as i dont have stairs im not really qualified to comment but my son fell down his stairs the other day and his has a landing half way up , he blamed nylon socks and i remember his partner fell too ( no drink involved ! ) i would imagine laminate might be slippy , if i had stairs i would put a carpet runner in a plain colour with brass bars , best wishes with your project
