We are replacing the treads and risers on our enclosed stairway. At this point the old treads and risers have been removed leaving the initial bare stairs. I have two questions.
1. NEW STAIRTREADS - We want our stairs to match our living rooms Armstrong Grand Canyon Hickory Engineered Hardwood flooring. The flooring is 3/8" thick. Matching Armstrong stair nose is to be used on the treads.
QUESTION: In your opinion, is it okay to install the described treads over bare stair treads?
2. I am looking at new precut and finished risers. The risers are 0.3437 thick. According to the decription these risers are designed to be installed over existing risers.
QUESTION: In your opinion, is it okay to install the described risers over the bare stair risers?
Here is a photo of the bare stairs.
