Once the entire carpet runner is detached from the staircase and rolled up, carefully carry the rolled carpet away from the work area. Next, meticulously inspect the stairs for any remaining staples, tack strips, or adhesive residue. Use the carpet removal tool, a pair of pliers, or a claw hammer to carefully pull out any lingering fasteners embedded in the wood. Finally, sweep or vacuum the stairs thoroughly to remove any dust, small debris, or tiny pieces of carpet or padding, leaving the staircase clean and clear for its next purpose.
