Step 6 · Clean Up and Final Inspection

Once all stair treads are installed and any optional anti-slip tape is applied, thoroughly clean the entire work area. Dispose of all carpet scraps, padding, and packaging materials properly. Sweep or vacuum the stairs and surrounding areas to remove any dust or debris generated during the project. Carefully inspect each stair tread. Push and pull on them to check for any looseness or instability. Ensure all screws are properly countersunk and no sharp edges are exposed. Walk on each tread to test its stability and ensure it feels solid underfoot. Address any issues found before considering the project complete.
