We used UPS door delivery to ship to V.Mendes these
red
oak hardwood steps. Toronto, (Ontario) addresses
are relatively easy to handle and can typically be delivered
within 1 week.
They were ecstatic. This was their first attempt
at installing hardwood treads, ...and this was on
a set of wood
spiral stairs. How's that for feeling brave
and starting at the top of the technical challenge.
They've done a really amazing job and we're proud to
show off their workmanship.
"The stairs look amazing, we were raving about
how the overhang on the steps really make it look professional.
Much appreciate all your professional service "

Red
Oak Half-Round Starter Step (right hand)
Railing has been installed with a "volute" - the
snail shaped end on the handrail that matches the half round
shape of the oak starter step.

As you can see by the picture this was a
set of wood spiral
stairs. Each oak step was custom made to fit the triangular
shape of these curved steps.

These curved steps were finished on the
right end with a "returned"
finished end that allows the stair tread to wrap around
the stringer. This simplifies the finishing of this edge.
Congratulation to this young couple that
took on this challenging home renovation project... they've
done an amazing job!
