From How to Install Carpet Treads on Concrete Basement Stairs, Step 3: Cut Carpet Treads
Carefully plan out your carpet cuts to maximize material usage and ensure a consistent look. Draw a detailed diagram of your stairs on graph paper, labeling each tread and riser with its exact dimensions. Then, use this plan to cut your carpet roll into individual pieces using a utility knife and a long, sturdy straight edge. Cut from the back of the carpet for cleaner edges and to protect the pile.
