A COUPLE who were quoted \u00a33,000 to transform their stairs decided to try and do it themselves instead. <\/p>\n
Dani explained that they were sick of the dark grey carpet on their stairs, so got a quote to redo it. <\/p>\n

But when it came back as \u00a33k, they decided to give it a go without any professional help. <\/p>\n
They started by ripping up the grey carpet on the stairs, and paintingthem white. <\/p>\n
Then, they bought some self-adhesive stair pads from Amazon, which they attached to the top. <\/p>\n
In total, the transformation cost them just \u00a3230 – and that included the paint too. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the caption of the TikTok video, Dani revealed further details of the products they'd used for the makeover.<\/p>\n
She also added: "I\u2019ve also bought some carpet tape to stick the backs down, which they don\u2019t necessarily need as I\u2019m really impressed with how secure they are – but I\u2019m going to try anyway.<\/p>\n
"This DIY would also be a good temporary \/ short term makeover too as the stair pads are easy to remove if you wanted to."<\/p>\n
People were quick to praise Dani for the transformation, with one writing: "Superb transformation!"<\/p>\n

Absolutely love it," someone else commented. <\/p>\n "Also, if you ever decide to lay a runner yourself it\u2019s not as hard as it seems, just takes some research!"<\/p>\n "\u00a33k?? That's hilarious!" another wrote. <\/p>\n "Love it! My stairs look terrible and I\u2019ve been looking for ideas," someone else added. <\/p>\nSue Radford's 'feud' with Millie ends as she wishes her a happy birthday<\/h3>\n<\/section>\n
