Stair Installation in Durham
Before fitting new treads on an older Oak Hill stair, survey the two landings and the rise between each step. Mark any change in elevation at the top of the flight. That measurement helps determine how the proposed nosing should fit. Look at the edges of the treads at the railing.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
Measure stair parts together with the floors above and below so the finished edges line up correctly.
Red Oak Treads
Compare a finished red oak tread against the landing wood before choosing how closely to match the color.
White Oak Treads
Check how a white oak tread looks under the stair lighting after the intended finish is applied.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Look at full-width hickory or maple samples so grain differences are visible beside the riser and landing.
Painted or Wood Risers
Compare a painted riser with a wood riser under the same tread and landing finishes before ordering.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
Template open ends separately if the exposed return meets a wall, rail or landing at a different angle.
Landing Treads
Measure the landing tread where the stairs meet the next floor so the new nosing can finish at the correct height.
