ABOUT OUR TREADS
Our treads are made in Canada out of staves from high-quality kiln-dried lumber, glued, then planed and sanded many times before actually becoming a tread; there is no space or bevel between staves.
Many consumers are under false assumptions that a tread made from 3-8 pieces of hardwood lumber is not as good as a stair tread made of one solid piece of lumber. This is very, very far from the truth. A stair tread made from only 1-2 pcs. of hardwood lumber has very little strength and/or structural integrity against cupping or warping and therefore fails to meet industry standards. Thus, we will not stock one piece stair treads and we do not manufacture them!
Unfinished Red Oak stair treads are made for interior use.
They are sold unfinished, allowing you to finish it to match other stair parts or decor.
Applying an ample amount of construction adhesive on the stringer before nailing in place ensures a solid installation.
Our treads with a ¼” round over square nose profile are revolutionary stair remodelling products that cover your old carpet stairs, damaged or unfinished existing stairs.
In just 1 day, your stairs can be transformed into a beautiful solid hardwood staircase.
