LVP stairs v.s. Carpet stairs
My rental house is a 3-story townhouse covered by carpet and vinyl sheets. I have hired a contractor to upgrade the entire house to LVPs. However, for the stairs, I am having a hard time deciding between LVP and carpet. LVP will be easier to maintain for sure, but I worry about safety and liability.
At this moment, I am leaning towards LVP stairs, but will send an email to tenants to warn the risk of slippery stairs and to encourage them to buy anti-slip tapes.
I would love to hear suggestions from experienced landlords. Thank you!
