How to install prefinished retro treads and risers from www.stair-treads.com featuring the remodel of an old carpeted staircase with new, real wood prefinished Cumaru (Brazilian Teak) retro-fit stair treads and primed white retro risers only available from Stair-Treads.com - the original source for the Prefinished RetroFit Stair Tread. Retro treads are a far better option for installing hardwood on your stairs than using flooring pieces and a stairnose.
In this video, we'll show you how to remove the old overhang from a site-built staircase; measure, mark, and cut the new retro treads; and install them for a completely remodeled staircase without demolishing the old structure. This project can be completed by most homeowners with a basic level of construction knowledge and a few tools. A complete staircase remodel typically only takes a weekend to transform it from an old carpeted set of stairs to staircase of real solid hardwood!

what was wrong with teh original under carpet wood stairs?

[@stairtreads]

The sub-treads (under the carpet) were construction grade 2x12's and by installing a new Retro Tread, we're actually refacing the steps with solid Cumaru wood (Brazilian Teak). This is a much better option than trying to stain pine to resemble the Cumaru flooring. Our Retro Treads make refacing a set of stairs possible in dozens of different wood species and stain colors without having to demolish and reconstruct a new staircase from scratch!
