Reclaimed Wood Stair Treads FAQs
Can you put new stair treads over old ones?
If you want to place hardwood treads over an existing flight of steps, retrofitting stair treads is the simplest way. High-quality prefinished stair treads are made of solid edge-glued wood, not veneered or engineered wood, and can be used to “cap” or reface an existing tread.
What is the best wood for stair treads?
Oak is one of the best timbers for stair treads. Oak hardwood floors and stair treads are extremely durable; many homes have oak flooring that is hundreds of years old.
What is a good thickness for reclaimed wood stair treads?
¾” to 1” are most popular sizes in stair treads.
How do I hide the gaps on my stair treads?
Consider covering the gaps with colored caulk if they aren’t too large. One advantage of this form of repair is that it is flexible enough to move with the steps. The caulking will move with the treads and risers if they continue to shift. It can also be used to silence squeaks and creaks.
Should you nail or screw reclaimed wood stair treads?
There’s no one definitive answer to this question—it depends on the specific situation and materials involved. Generally speaking, nailing is better for thin materials (like stair treads) because screws can cause them to split. However, if the material is particularly strong or if there is a lot of weight bearing down on the stair treads, screws may be a better option. Always consult a professional before starting any home improvement project!
Should reclaimed wood stair treads be glued?
Don’t use just nails or staples to secure treads and risers. The adhesive is more significant than the fasteners. When fastening options are limited, a high-quality adhesive is important.
