Refinishing Stair Treads to Mimic Wood Look Tile Floor – Atlantic Beach

/in /by

White grain refinished stair treadsBeach Avenue homeowners living in Atlantic Beach were commissioning some home improvement projects.

Among them, they wanted to simulate the appearance of their wood look tile flooring on their wooden stair treads.

They contacted Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 for a free consultation.

After seeing the tile flooring and their stair treads, we recommended refinishing the Red Oak stair treads to simulate their wood look floor tiles.

Our crew began refinishing stair treads by sanding the stair treads down to bare wood. Then we proceeded to wire brush the treads to thin out the soft grain. We painted the treads white, then lightly sanded the treads. Some white paint was retained in the grain patterns that were enhanced by the wire brushing. Next we stained the treads using Rubio Monocoat with a stain called “Oyster”. And we finished the stair treads with a coat of Bona NordicSeal  and two coats of Bona Traffic Extra Matte HD.

We followed the same process to refinish the stair hand railing, so that it also simulated the wood look floor tiles.

Needless to say, this customer was thrilled with their refinished stair treads and hand railing, and with our workmanship on this project. And Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients.
