Stairs
Wooden treads
Wood gives a staircase warmth and weight. New treads, or treads laid over the existing ones, turn an ordinary staircase into a piece of furniture in the house.
Overview
Warm, sturdy and timeless
In a renovation the existing treads are often covered with overlay treads: wooden treads and risers made to fit the old staircase exactly. The structure stays, the look is new. On an open staircase the treads themselves are replaced.
The wood species, the thickness of the tread and the shape of the nosing set the character. Oak is the most common, in a light or a deep tone. Oiled feels natural, lacquered is easier to maintain.
Wood combines well with other materials: wooden treads with risers in the colour of the wall, or with a poured floor on the landing. We coordinate that in one plan.
