Our miters don’t QUACK, but this duck does! 🦆 #designandbuild #duckaroundandfindout #stair #framing

What happens here

The project begins by showcasing the existing substructure of a set of outdoor stairs. This frame typically consists of treated lumber stringers and risers, providing the foundational support for the deck stair treads. Observe the condition of the existing stair frame, ensuring it is clean, level, and structurally sound for the installation of new decking material. The video then briefly presents the composite deck boards that will be used as the new stair treads, displaying their color and texture.

Goal: Ensure the stair frame is ready and materials are available

Tools and materials

  • Composite Deck Boards — To form the walking surface (treads) of the stairs
  • Existing Stair Frame — The foundational structure onto which the new stair treads will be installed
