Stair treads and risers, in stockStep right up.

Stair treads for new stairs.
Full 1" thick, 11-1/2" deep solid hardwood treads for new stairs and full rebuilds. Each tread is edge-glued Select grade, kiln dried, so it stays flat and behaves the same from the first step to the landing. Orange pills are lengths with a return attached, for the open side of the stair.

Carpet to hardwood, no demo.
The fastest way to turn a carpeted stair into hardwood. RetroTreads are thinner caps that go right over the existing steps, so the stair stays where it is.
RetroTreads
Made for remodels. Pull up the old carpet, cut off the existing nosing and cap each step with a 5/8" RetroTread. The stair looks like solid oak without tearing it out.
