Stair Treads and Risers

About stair treads & risers

Treads and risers are the steps themselves — the tread is the board you step on, the riser is the vertical face between them. Finishing both in matching solid wood gives a staircase a clean, built-in look. We mill treads and risers in our Pennsylvania shop in oak, poplar and more.

How to choose

Match the tread style (standard, bullnose or mitered-return) to your stair, size the risers to your step height, and keep the species consistent across treads and risers for a seamless finish.
