Ripped Out Carpet On Stairs And Have Plywood Treads

It took about 30 minutes to rip up the plywood 30 minutes to paint the stair risers including setup and clean up about an hour to draw the lines and then another 30 minutes to nail the stairs and apply caulk.

Ripped out carpet on stairs and have plywood treads.

My husband and i recently tore the carpet from our stairs and painted the wood underneath creating a fresh clean and modern look. 1 re treads most expensive but might be easier. All this is done inside your house so just imagine where all the dust is going to go. 2 replacing treads middle road expensive harder than number 1.

In this video we re using a tread that already has a rounded front. We have plain old builder s plywood under the carpet. I ended up using one stair tread two red oak boards that were 12 or 14 inches wide and a smaller one that was 2 or 3 inches wide. We did this project over a full weekend and two additional weeks nights following.

Since we moved into our house we have wanted to remove the carpet from our stairs and paint them. We ve had several schools of thought on what to do so far the options are no more carpet. Attach that piece with construction adhesive and nails as well. This would have been so nice to have done to them my new house will.

I cannot stress this enough. I need to rip out the unfortunately not so old carpet and do something different. Our main goal was to rip off the carpet see what wood was underneath and. I would guess around a three foot square.

Replacing stair treads starts with tearing out carpet then staples and then cutting the old bullnoses. On your picture frames across the floor. If you prefer you can round over a piece of wood. Heck you will be finding it everywhere for the weeks to come.

And also i am not sure what color to go with if i am able. This is our stairs before. We ripped up our awful carpet to find mdf stair treads and plywood landings. The carpet was old and dirty giving the entry a very dark and dated feel.

I am on a tight budget and want to know if i can just sand these and paint them. It ended up being the perfect size when i was done and i didn t have to rip anything down. This mama got bored last weekend and decided it was time to tackle a project that has been on my wish list to do list for a long long time. The other option is to replace the tread piece entirely with a hardwood border.

Well to be perfectly honest remove the carpet from our entire house. Currently we have a stair case that has 2 steps going up then a landing then a left turn to more stairs up to our loft.
