RetroFit Stair Tread & Riser Kits

RetroFit Stair Tread Kits are a complete overlay system designed to simplify the process of converting carpeted stairs to solid hardwood. This system is engineered for renovation projects, allowing the new components to be installed directly over the existing stair structure after the old carpet has been removed, eliminating the need for extensive demolition. Each kit’s primary component is a solid wood tread that comes with a nosing, or front edge molding, already attached. This pre-attached nosing is designed to cover the edge of the existing step, creating the appearance of a brand new, thick solid wood tread.

The primary advantage of receiving these components unfinished is the complete control it gives you over the final look. Each tread and riser arrives sanded and ready for your custom stain and finish, allowing you to create a perfect color match with your existing flooring, handrail, or other woodwork. Each kit provides the two main components for one step: one unfinished solid wood tread (in your choice of Red Oak or White Oak) and one riser. By combining the tread, nosing, and riser in a single package, this system offers a versatile and efficient solution for any stair remodel. We stock these complete kits, ready for fast shipping.
