Thank you Thank you Thank you x 1000! This video made my life so much easier. My stairs had carpet glued to the side of my stringers. After I removed the carpet, I needed to install a veneer on the stringer to finish it; after which I plan to put just carpet on the treads and risers. I would have never thought to nail the wood along the stringer like you did and take a mirror image of it with a triangle wood template. I knew I would have to notch out the ends of the stair nosing and use a triangle template but wasn't sure how I was gonna transfer the triangle template onto the veneer. Genius!!! Trade secret!!! However, I did figure out to use the one completed veneer from the one side of the stair stringer and outline it for the other side. That saves some time and worked perfect. Cheers buddy, you da man!

I have an oak staircase. Ttreads are bullnose, and they never installed a skirt board. I want to do this and saw several videos on how to. Currently, I have wallpaper from the chair rail moulding down to each tread and riser, so each piece of wallpaper had to be intricately cut by a professional to fit those stairs. I won't have the skirt board installed, (too difficult) but will improvise by adding a 1 1/2 inch moulding on an angle above the bullnose perhaps two inches. I will then wallpaper inside that space where the skirt board should have gone, in a brownish color to complement the wood oak stairs. Above that moulding I will wallpaper up to the chair rail a Lincrusta brand embossed wallpaper. Since it didn't come with a skirt board I'm leaving all those headaches behind in trying to attempt this procedure. Part of the problem is I am not confident I could obtain a tight fit especially because of the bullnose on each tread, and I don't want to use a quarter round moulding to hide the flaws (spaces) on each tread. I think this will be my solution to getting a skirt board effect by again selecting a brownish tan wallpaper that blends in with the oak stain. But wouldn't that be something if I could find a wood veneer instead of a thick skirt board and minimize cutting except for a sharp blade knife? Any thoughts on this issue?
@IdahoStairs5 жыл бұрын
You should be able to get a hold of a thinner oak veneer. 1/4” or 1/8” thick. But whether it is wallpaper, or 1/4” veneer, or 3/4” solid wood, The easiest way for a tight fit is to remove the nosing where the skirt is going. Use a flush cut saw (The type of saw used by the flooring trades to undercut door jams. Allowing them to slide the flooring under the door jam and casing rather than try to cut around). Then use a piece of the material you decide on as a guide block and cut into the front of nosing until you hit the riser. Use a small chisel and break off the piece of nosing. This way you only have to cut the 90° shapes of the rise and the run. Use the block method you saw in the video to trace out your skirt, or wallpaper. Cut the material then put it into place. Then I lay a pencil against the surface of the stairs and trace a final cut to bring everything in tight. I hope that helps

Another thought.... if you have trouble finding a thin oak veneer, you could cut the shape out of something like 1/8” MDF material. Then paint to color match the stain. Or even put wallpaper on the cut out skirt, then trim to match the shape.

@@IdahoStairs Years ago I was at a marble and granite countertop shop. In the warehouse was stacked all these beautiful huge sheets of stone.

These large sheets were rolled up and tossed out, and I grabbed them thinking I could use them for something. Had them for years, never used them, so I tossed 'em out...go figure. But I could get more, lay these sheet pieces against all the treads, and risers, and I could also tuck them in between the wall and some of the treads/risers, them tape or glue them attaching all of them, trace the tread, riser, AND bullnose, cut to fit, and use that as my template, whether I use wallpaper, MDF, or something else to make my skirtboard, and top it with a 2 inch stained trimboard.

The notches in the stair thread look to wide? How did you make up for that?
@IdahoStairs6 жыл бұрын
Cosmo Scrivanich These stairs were to have carpet on them. The carpet easily covers the gaps. Most framed stairs have a gap of about 3/4” between the framing and the sheetrock. When the stairs do not get skirted, the carpet is all that covers. If the stair treads had been a finished product, I would’ve used a flush cut saw on the nosing, then cut the skirt tight to the treads and risers.
@kyleneanderson62506 жыл бұрын
Cosmo brought up a great question and one that needs to be discussed. We have been remodeling our house the the last three years and have learned a ton. So I’m writing this great advice because of my really bad huge gap experience that my stair guy screwed up with our stairs skirting on the risers (vertical gap) which affects what you put across your risers. That being wood or carpet. My gaps can run from almost a inch wide down to 1/2”. Which is terrible. Because I’m having 1/2” thick carpet ( Berber like) installed and you don’t put padding under the carpet on the risers because it shortens your tread step!! Only pad on the top of the treads. SO TO ALL STAIR INSTALLERS if carpet is going on stairs risers and treads DONT LEAVE A 3/4” gap NOT even a 1/2” gap. Get it as tight as possible, another words, scribe it to the clients own stairs. Then your client won’t be stuck with trying to figure out how to cover/fill the huge 3/4” gap you left them with on the risers which effects the steps on the treads. Arghhh Again DONT leave a gap anywhere more than 3/8”. Figure client could be installing thin 1/2” carpet. I hope this helps anyone BEFORE you have a stair guy install your skirting.
@IdahoStairs6 жыл бұрын
Nowhere in this video is there a half-inch gap between the treads /risers and the skirt.. The only gap is between the nosing and the skirt. It does not matter how thin your carpet is. When it runs wall to wall and wraps over the nosing, the gap in question from this video is not an issue. On a sidenote, you can add whatever you want to a riser. As long as you do it to every step the run remains the same
@kyleneanderson62506 жыл бұрын
Idaho Stairs Your skirting is fine around the riser/tread in this video. When you mentioned above that it was ok to have a 3/4” gap I thought you were talking between the vertical on the skirting where it meets the riser. So I believe I misunderstood where this 3/4” gap was ok. It’s been a pain trying to figure out how to cover my huge gaps at the end of each of my risers where my 1/2” carpet is suppose to run up to on each side of my risers. My only solution that I can think of that will look okay without adding 3/4” thickness to the depth of the tread is to put some type of molding in the corners and leave a slight gap at top so when my flooring guy comes to install the carpet he can roll it right under the bullnose of the front tread and staple. Then add my 1/2” carpet ( no padding) right up to that molding I put in the corners of the risers. I hope this makes sense. Lol. I wish I could put a pic on here. It would sure help explain and then you might even have some suggestions.

@IdahoStairs5 жыл бұрын
I notch the nosing profile out so i do not need to carve around each one. This also lets the skirt sit right on the corner where the rise and run meet. This should eliminate the need to remark and recut a second time. I think the best method for panel mold is to get the correct angle on one end and leave the other end long. Then hold in place, so the cut miter sits perfect into the next piece, then mark your next cut. Cut it a 1/4” long so you have enough length to adjust your angle if needed. I also try to cut the longer pieces first, and work down to smallest (i do this with all stair parts). This leaves the least amount of waste, and if you have any that end up too short, or get cut wrong, you can use it on a shorter section as you work your way down.

Maybe you thought that was a hardwood finished tread? It was not. Why would you worry about a notch in the rough framing? The carpet covers all of that. And, if they ever convert from carpeted stairs to hardwood treads, that nosing has to be cut off anyway

Yeah, a lot of people make a much bigger deal about it than is necessary. It is no different than when a painter tells people there is no way they can let me put in the paint grade skirts and risers, at the same time as the hardwood treads or else it is impossible to paint them. So he wants me to turn a one-and -a-half day job into a three day job. All because he doesn’t want to spend two hours taping off the treads before he paints.

Can you install stair skirts after you have already installed the vinyls?
@IdahoStairs3 жыл бұрын
After installing the treads? Yes, you can. But, it is much more difficult because the skirt must be cut tight to all the treads and risers.
