My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    Thanks for the compliment and question. They are 2" x 1/2" steel bar stanchions. Good luck with your project.

    Beautiful Stair, how did you hold down the treads? Are the Treads Glass or Acrylic?

    What are some structural steel requirements for the cantilever stairs. We have designed similar stairs but our architect is recommending we need structural steel engineer to complete the design we are three months away from completing our house.
    Thanks.

    Truly impressive staircase design. The simplicity is quite elegant. I am also interested in the tread material.

    Hi, thanks for the kind words! The treads are sanded acrylic and screwed into place.
