Professional non-slip stair tread fitting for Devon homes - grip strips applied to every step for safer climbing and descending.
Grip Every Step Safely
Slippery stairs cause falls. Non-slip treads give you grip underfoot. Climb and descend with confidence.
💡 Pro tip: Fit treads to all steps, not just some. Inconsistent surfaces cause trips because your feet expect the same grip.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are non-slip treads?
Textured strips or mats that stick to stair surfaces. Provide grip underfoot so you don't slip, especially in socks or smooth-soled shoes.
Do they damage the stairs?
Self-adhesive types can be removed but may leave residue. Screw-fix types leave holes. We discuss options based on your flooring.
Are they ugly?
Clear or wood-coloured options are subtle. High-contrast options are more visible but that can be a safety benefit too.
Do they go on every step?
Yes - all steps for consistency. Missing one creates a trip hazard because your feet expect the same grip throughout.
