Custom Hallway Runners
Choose carpet or use your own. We measure, cut, bind, and fit the runner to your hallway.
Loading estimate details
We make custom hallway runners for homes across Virginia, including all Northern Virginia, Maryland and Washington, DC.
Width, length and the floor around your runner
Think about where you want the runner to begin and end, and how much floor you want to leave visible. We measure the hallway with you at home before agreeing on its width and length.
Doors, turns and the stair connection
We check doors, turns and where the hall meets the stairs. Those details affect the runner's placement. We also discuss the finished edge and any pad or installation the job needs.
Choose your carpet and finished runner
Considering a custom runner or a ready-made one? Start with the dimensions and finish you want, then compare custom and ready-made hallway runners.
See the carpet samples we bring.
You can also supply carpet. Before accepting it for the job, we review its material, construction, quantity and intended runner dimensions.
A hallway runner sized for the passage
A hallway runner is a long, narrow rug made to sit within the hall rather than cover the floor from wall to wall. Its width, length, edge finish, and placement all depend on the passage.
- 01
Long halls where fixed retail sizes leave awkward gaps
- 02
Connecting spaces that need a coordinated runner
- 03
Customer-supplied carpet that needs cutting and binding
What can change the price
The price depends on more than the runner’s length. We review its finished width and length, the material you select or supply, and how much edge needs binding. The binding choice, any pattern repeat or alignment, and any pad or securing needs also affect the estimate.
Timing
The schedule depends on material availability and whether the job is a complete supplied project or binding work on carpet you already have.
See how it worksCommon questions
01What is the difference between a hallway runner and a stair runner?
A hallway runner lies flat in a passage. A stair runner is fitted over treads and risers and requires stair-specific measuring and installation.
02Do you measure hallway runners at home?
Yes for complete projects. Customers with confirmed dimensions or supplied material can also describe the job through the project form.
