Complete stair makeover 

😂😂😂 Now THAT’S the kind of expert comment we need more of.

Those are low standards,jesus😂 He needs to stick with making birdhouses.

Yes I remember the work you did 124 years ago. Long story short I haven’t hired you since!

Usually when someone adds how many years they have been doing stuff they are pretty good.

Glad it helped!

Thank you so much 😀

Glad it was helpful!

How is your project going?

Glad to hear that

Lol I totally get it. I still haven’t done our baseboards since installing our flooring

Thanks a lot!

Thank you

Glad you enjoyed it

Its meant to look like two separate pieces…

Little bit of everything honestly

Hello there!

They actually came with the track hinge from dashboard. He may send something different now.

Glad you think so!

I've been professionally building custom stairs for about 25 yrs. When you add a plywood to 'each' riser the tread depth stays the same. What changes is moving the entire staircase forward the thickness of the plywood. So if its 1/2" ply then your entire stairs is moved forward 1/2". Usually that is no big deal. The bigger concern is that these flooring companies that sell these treads to match their flooring don't know how to make a real looking tread. They usually only have a 3/4" thick nosing on them (which looks like what he's using here) or sometimes they are way too thick like 1-1/2". A traditional wood tread measures around 1". Second, according to the IRC (International Residential Code) which most state codes are based off of, the nosing must hang over the riser by 3/4" to 1-1/4". and the radius can not be more than 9/16". I have yet to see a flooring company that make one to fit these requirements. Many overhang less than 3/4". Third when adding any kind of material directing over the main floor and/or the original treads and/or the second floor you risk violating code by changing the height of the risers either at the bottom or the top if you don't do the same on all 3 areas. This is hardly ever mentioned. Each riser MUST be the same height within 3/8" from the shortest to the tallest in a flight of stairs. There are so many variable that can change rise heights, but no one talks about it because they simply don't know what they are doing. Flooring manufactures aren't going to care or tell you they just want to sell you their product and DYI really don't know the code at all. In fact, most carpenter don't really build stair so they don't know either. You really need a professional finish carpenter that builds stair (not all finish carpenters do) that understands the code to look at the stairs and see what can and can not be done. People trip and fall all the time on stairs and many have died because of stairs no meeting code requirements.

@@t.e.1189 I agree. I've been a finish carpenter for decades, and I bring in my stair guy when working on treads, railings, etc. You want someone that does NOTHING but stairs. It is a sub-specialty within finish carpentry.

​@@t.e.1189I second all of that. I've seen some completed overlay jobs done by flooring companies, and most all were hideous. Tread noses hanging out past the stringers and much more. I was all about stairs professionally for 25 years also. Circular and winders mostly...straight stairs were boring to me, although I was instrumental in manufacturing improvements.

I agree. Trying to decide what to do with my stairs.

I wish I was paid for it period
