The before pic:
Doing a “fast and last” job for a past client before the next big drive to New Brunswick. Basically recover the stairs and make new steel railings along with hardwood flooring his upstairs. Made all new Oak treads, stained and sprayed with a clear satin finish to match the new flooring. Milled new trim pieces and then welded up new steel railings. 1” pickets with 3” posts.
The steel was all cleaned and sprayed with 3 coats of flat black - Tremclad. Could have powder costed but these are not that type of client.
Stripped carpet out the entire upstairs and off the stairs and smacked down about 900 sqft of engineered hardwood flooring. Then went at the stairs:
Cut new stringer covers and then toe kicks and Treads. Everything in with PL and nailed while things set up.
The steel pickets were routed into the treads and floors 1/8” to provide a flush look.
Couple pieces of trim left for tomorrow and we should have some gas money for the next trip —first thing next week…. Man time is flying!!
