SPC stair cladding in Dubai: how it works and what to plan
Updated 25 October 2026
What stair cladding is
- Tread: the part you stand on.
- Riser: the vertical face between treads.
- Nosing: the front edge, which takes the most wear.
Good cladding lines these up so every step looks identical. BestFloor's stairs page describes treads, risers and landings clad in the same SPC family as the rooms around them, "so the staircase feels continuous, not bolted on".
Why do the stairs with the floor
Old marble or beige tile stairs can make a freshly floored villa look unfinished. In BestFloor's Aura Gardens case study in Tilal Al Ghaf, the full staircase was clad in matching SPC with nosing and white skirting following the stairs, as part of a 220 m² job finished in 2 to 3 days.
Price: get it in writing
Every staircase differs by step count, shape and condition, so BestFloor confirms stairs during the free measurement visit. We do not quote a per step figure here: ask for stairs as a separate, itemised line in your quote. BestFloor's own stair cladding guide and stair cladding page explain the options.
Checklist before booking

Frequently asked questions
Can stairs be clad without removing old tiles or marble?
SPC cladding is usually fitted over existing tiled or marble steps once they are sound. Loose steps are fixed first.
Should the stairs match the floor?
Most owners match them. BestFloor clads stairs in the same SPC family as the adjoining rooms.
How much does stair cladding cost?
It depends on step count, shape and condition. BestFloor prices stairs after a free site visit; ask for an itemised line.
How long does it take?
In BestFloor's Aura Gardens case, 220 m² of floor plus full stair cladding took 2 to 3 days.
Is skirting included on stairs?
In the Aura Gardens case, white skirting followed the stairs. Confirm skirting in your quote.
