Runners, Binding & Edging Explained
Carpet whipping (or overlocking) uses high-strength yarn wrapped continuously around the carpet edge to prevent fraying, offering a clean, classic finish. Carpet binding involves stitching a folded fabric tape—such as cotton herringbone or canvas—over the edge for a tailored, designer border look.
Carpet whipping typically costs between £3 and £10 per linear metre, depending on the carpet pile thickness, the yarn used, and whether you need tape binding or standard overlocking.
Yes. Almost any broadloom carpet range—from heavy-duty wool twists and textured berbers to natural sisal and luxury thick piles—can be cut down and custom-edged into a bespoke stair runner.
No, Stairrods are primarily decorative, adding a touch of traditional elegance and anchoring the look. However, a secure installation relies fundamentally on heavy-duty underlay, gripper rods, and professional fitting beneath the runner.
Measure the length of a single step (tread) plus the vertical drop (riser), multiply by the total number of steps, and add extra allowance for landings and turns. Alternatively, take advantage of Floormaster’s free home measuring service across Yorkshire.
