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!
Detailed, efficient, precise! Top notch video, thank you!
what was wrong with teh original under carpet wood stairs?
