Winders and patterns take longer
A straight run is the baseline. Winders, curves and landings need individual cuts. A patterned runner has to line up on every step. We price that time in the quote instead of finding it on install day.
So you can compare quotes like for like.

Runners start from $1,100 with synthetic, $1,250 with nylon and $1,750 with wool. Hallway runners start from $800. Every staircase is different, so we quote after we see yours.
Yes. That's the most common job. We agree the fastening method with you before work starts.
About 3 to 5 hours for a straight staircase. Winders, removal or pattern matching add time.
