I had to tear out the landing on our basement staircase. It was soft and poorly built with osb. That turned into ripping the carpet off the rest of the stairs. While I was demo’ing, the wife consulted joanna gaines and this is what Im told I want now. I think Ive sourced some pine at HD for the treads but finishing is not my area of expertise. Are the treads pictured just stained or stained and then poly’d for durability? Or do you think its a vinyl cap? What would be the best finish for heavy traffic? In the meantime, Im going to try and convince the boss that some leftover LVP flooring would look good too. Thanks for any help.
