Why Wood Stair Treads and Risers Stands Out
Read Full GuideShow Less
Solid Treads vs. Stair Overlays
Solid Treads: Full-structure wood steps offering maximum durability and sanding potential. Stair Overlays (Caps): Retrofit your existing stairs for a cost-effective wood finish without demolition.
Profile Shapes
Bullnose: Classic rounded edges for safety and tradition. Square-Edge: Modern minimalist style, ideal for pairing with glass or metal railings.
Installation & Benefits
Easy to install over existing stairs using adhesive and screws. Provides long-lasting durability, seamless aesthetics, and a high-end finish. Compatible with modern or traditional stair designs.
Still Have Questions?
Quick answers to the questions homeowners ask most before buying.
Can I install wood treads over my old carpeted stairs?
Yes. Use Stair Overlays (Retrofit Treads). After removing carpet and staples, glue the treads directly onto existing steps for a seamless wood finish.
Do I need to finish my wood treads before installation?
Treads are sold unfinished so you can stain them to match your flooring. Many homeowners prefer clear matte polyurethane to highlight natural oak.
What is a stair riser?
The riser is the vertical back part of a step. Painted white risers paired with natural oak treads create a clean, high-contrast look.
How do I ensure my stairs aren't slippery?
Use high-friction matte finishes or discreet anti-slip clear strips/stair runners to increase safety for children and pets.
