A large piece of carpet is rolled out on the floor. The width of each stair step is carefully measured using a tape measure. A straight edge is then aligned with the measurement, and a utility knife is used to precisely cut the carpet to the required size for each step. This ensures that each carpet piece fits snugly across the width of its respective stair.
