Are you sealing the carpet sides to guard against fiber unraveling. Since only 1/8 inch is added to the width, the side gutter is not being used in the conventional step down manner, but rather as a simple angle bend for appearance sake. If sealer is not being used are you optimizing the cuts to be close to a backing web strand? Maybe I am overthinking fibers coming loose while tucking and vacuuming the sides and nose ends. Love your videos, take pride in doing the best job you can do. For me you lead the way.

I like the look of the carpet tucked under the bullnose. I was in stair manufacturing for 20+ years, and I don't recall seeing any stairs done that way...and I've been in a lot of homes, by different builders and from low end to high end. One thing I discovered was, when installers would kick the carpet in the middle of the riser, they would knock the riser loose from the back of the tread.

Great video. Thank you for sharing! A couple of quick questions, if I may. Firstly, if I have to use several lengths of carpet for the stairs, would you add carpet grips/tack strips at the bottom of the riser as well as the back of the tread, so that the two separate pieces of carpet will each have something to tuck into? Secondly, I have size 11 feet and my treads are only 8" long, so worry about my heels and toes hitting tacks each time I go up and down the stairs. Any advice?
