Continue the installation process for the remaining steps. For each step, apply construction adhesive to the existing step surface. Place the cut stair tread, ensuring a snug fit. Then, apply construction adhesive to the back of the prepared riser, and insert any necessary support wedges. Secure the riser with a nail gun. Repeat this pattern, working your way up the staircase. Pay close attention to alignment and ensure each piece is firmly set before moving to the next. The back edge of each tread will be covered by the next riser, so visible nails in that area are acceptable.
