How much does it cost to carpet 14 stairs?

Most Ottawa stair jobs run $35 to $55 per stair all-in, so 14 stairs land between $490 and $770. That covers carpet, underpad, install, and old carpet removal. Full Ottawa stair-cost guide has examples for 12, 14, and 16-step layouts; for runners specifically see custom stair runner pricing.

What changes the per-stair price:

• Standard box stairs (cheapest) vs open-side or pie-shaped winders (slowest)
• Wrapped (waterfall) vs upholstered (Hollywood) finish
• Whether the runner is full-width or a centre runner with stained wood borders
• Carpet grade and pattern matching at each riser

Stairs are quoted separately from room sq ft because labour is the bigger cost. We confirm everything in the written quote.
