Replacement Stair Treads

These replacement wood stair treads have a 3/4" thick body with a full 1" thick nose. Replacement treads offer a smart and easy way to upgrade existing stairs without the need for full removal. Designed to fit over old steps, these retrofit treads instantly refresh your staircase with the warmth and elegance of real hardwood. Each tread includes an overlapping front edge designed to slip over an existing platform for a clean, finished look. Ideal for renovations, this system saves time and labor while delivering a brand-new appearance. Available in multiple wood species and finish options, replacement treads are a favorite among professionals and DIYers looking for dramatic results with minimal disruption.

Extra Thick Stair Treads

Available in thicknesses of 1-1/4" to 1-3/4", extra thick treads create a bold and substantial look for staircases that need added strength and visual impact. Thicker than standard treads, these pieces are often used in open riser or floating stair designs where both strength and style matter. Made from top-grade hardwoods, they showcase rich grain patterns and create a high end feel with every step. These treads are available in both unfinished and prefinished options, giving you full control over the final look. If your project calls for a heavier, bolder stair tread, this is a standout choice.

Ultra Thick Stair Treads

Available in thicknesses up to 6", ultra thick stair treads offer a dramatic, heavy-profile design that turns any staircase into a bold centerpiece. These treads are hollow, making them easier to handle. They can also be ordered without some of the sides, allowing them to slip over an existing beam or platform. The ends of these ultra thick stair treads have a waterfall look that is absolutely stunning. Whether you're designing a modern space or a luxury interior, ultra thick treads combine strength and style. Choose from unfinished to be prefinished on site or prefinished at the factory for quicker installation.

Butcher Block Style Stair Treads

Available in thicknesses up to 5", butcher block style stair treads are made using 1" wide, full-length strips. The first and last strip may be less than 1". The edge-glued construction enhances resistance to warping while adding depth and character to the wood grain. These treads are especially popular in contemporary homes or projects where a distinctive look is desired. Each one is made from premium hardwoods and can be finished to match your space. Choose from unfinished to be prefinished on site or prefinished at the factory for quicker installation.

Hand Scraped Stair Treads and Risers

Hand scraped stair treads and risers add rustic texture and timeless character to staircases. Our experienced craftsmen actually scrape each board by hand, creating a unique look that adds depth and warmth. The surface is perfect for farmhouse, traditional, or vintage-style interiors where natural texture adds charm. It also helps hide minor scuffs, making it a practical choice for busy households. Available in a variety of hardwoods and finish options, these hand scraped treads and risers add an authentic handcrafted touch to any staircase.

Custom Size Wood Stair Risers

Our custom size wood stair risers are made to your specified height and length, helping ensure a clean, professional look with minimal cutting on site. They're available unfinished, prefinished, or prestained, so they match your needs whether you're doing a full staircase or replacing individual pieces. Available in the same wood species as our stair treads, these risers help complete any project with a clean and consistent finish.

Our landing treads have a 3/4" thick body with a full 1" thick nose that extends 1-1/4" back. They are available in different widths and lengths to fit a wide range of layouts. With options for unfinished, prefinished, or prestained, they blend smoothly with the rest of your staircase or flooring.

FAQ - Hardwood Stair Parts
1.

Who makes the best stair treads?

At Country Mouldings, we use premium lumber and a slow, careful manufacturing process. This ensures each stair tread is crafted to the highest standards of quality. We believe our commitment to quality makes our stair treads some of the best you can find.

2.

What is the price range for hardwood stair treads, and does the wood species and thickness affect the cost?

Wood stair treads can vary considerably in cost depending on the species, size, and finish you choose. For example, a standard oak tread is often at the lower end of the price range, while a large custom size tread in a premium hardwood like walnut or mahogany may be at the higher end. Thicker treads and the construction style can also influence the price. Whatever you choose, we offer competitive pricing to ensure you get excellent value for your investment.

3.

What thickness should I choose for my stair treads?

Full thickness stair treads (1") have always been popular. Extra thick stair treads (1-1/4" to 1-3/4") have also been very popular for many years. More recently, thicker, bolder treads (2" to 6") have become a trend. Ultimately, your thickness choice depends on the use of your staircase and the look you want to present.

4.

Do you offer floating stair treads?

We do offer floating stair treads. They are usually ordered as extra thick, butcher block style, or ultra thick treads to create that bold, modern floating look.

5.

Which wood species work the best for stair treads?

If the purpose of your staircase is just utilitarian, more durable treads work best, such as hickory, Brazilian cherry, maple, ash, red oak, and white oak. If you want to make your staircase visually stand out, an appealing look like walnut or mahogany works well and still provides plenty of durability.

6.

Can I order stair treads in custom sizes?

Yes, you can order stair treads in custom sizes. We offer any thickness from 1" to 6", any width from 6" to 60", and any length up to 120". Our stair treads are priced based on specifications, so there is no premium charge for ordering a custom size versus a standard size.

7.

Which finish is best for wood stair treads?

Our conversion varnish is a very durable finish with an excellent look. It provides a smooth, long lasting surface that stands up well to daily wear and tear, making it ideal for both high traffic staircases and those that you want to keep looking beautiful for years to come.

8.

Do wood stair treads add value to a home?

Wood stair treads definitely add value to a home. They bring a timeless, high quality look that enhances the overall appearance of your interior. Not only do they create a warm and inviting feel, but they are also durable and long lasting, which is a feature home buyers appreciate.
