Recommend a carpet company to cover stairs?

Hi, we have a 14-month old and have decided it is time to cover our lovely wooden staircase and landing with a thick carpet that will be safer for us and for our baby when she does start climbing the stairs.  Can anyone recommend a vendor/company that has done a good job with what seems like a more complex carpeting task?  Any recommendations about carpets that are less toxic are welcome too - as I recall there is a very strong smell associated with new carpets.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

I have used Strauss Carpets in Oakland many times and have always been pleased with their selection of different types and colors of carpet as well as their installation. My contact there is Felix and he will take very good care of you. 510-612-4088. Roger
