Exposed treads...also done with engineered walnut flooring? - Is it possible to have exposed treads with engineered wood flooring? Or are the treads hardwood, stained to match the floors? Thanks! »
FloorWerks Hi Dave, these stairs are 3/4" walnut with a expresso stain, not engineered. However your idea would work if you used engineered hard wood,. the inverted cove would cover the edge, but why? Engineered wood is more expensive than solid, so you are not saving the client anything and making the job harder to complete.
The "edge" or the inverted cove, as we refer to it, is hand sanded and stained on sight.
Please feel free to call me anytime if you have questions regarding FloorWerks projects.

Dave Lane Construction Co. I don't know about anyone. Definitely wouldn't be the same. I don't think the owner of this $2,000,000.00 house would go for it. Just my 2 cents
clairejane Thank you for the quick response. That is helpful. Also, do you know where this handrail was purchased and the style/name of it? I like the look of the side profile with the groove running along the side.
Thank you!
Dave Lane Construction Co. Any door , window and molding store or purchase on line. The company that makes this style is L J Smith. The style is LJ - 6519
What I love here is the great color selection. The combination of black and white has been done so perfectly here that it works even with the very simple shape of the banister.
