About This Product

The EVERMARK 48 in. x 11-1/2 in. unfinished plain cut pine wood stair tread is crafted from two color-matched pine re-sawn layers. Unfinished pine is added as a surface layer on the tread over an edge-glued softwood core, allowing this wood stair tread to feature a clean, uniform, look that's clear of most knots and imperfections commonly found in solid yellow pine treads. The special core of this stair tread also makes it stable and resistant to warping, checking, and cupping so it's perfect for use in carpet-grade stair construction or stair remodeling, as well as for stained or painted stair tread applications. Designed for interior use, our unfinished pine tread is 1 in. thick and can be finished to match your other stair parts or decor. It will fit stairs up to 48 in. in width and accommodates tread runs up to 11-1/2 in. For a solid installation of treads, put a bead of construction adhesive on the stringer before installation. From stair treads, stair railing, and a complete selection of stair parts, EVERMARK has what you need to make your stairs beautiful.

    Can you use a Brad nailer to put the stair tread down
    ByOct 30, 2025
    1 Answer | 
    Answer This Question

    Hi Russ, Brad nails are not the best nail to use for tread installation. We recommend using 16-gauge x 2 inch or 2 1/2 inch galvanized finish nails if you are using an air nailer.

      Can these be used to span stair landings? The old plywood (under catpet) will be removed. If these are solid lengths, it seems this use would be OK. Just confirming. The current plywood is 3/4". Trying to stay within specs.

      Answer This Question

      Hi LARRY, Thank you for your review.These stair treads are designed to be installed on stair stringers spaced 16 inches on center, which is typical for standard stair construction. If the intent is to use them as a replacement for subflooring, it's important to note that this would be outside of the product’s intended use and design specifications. Using the treads in that way would be at the discretion of the homeowner, but please be aware it would void the product warranty. We always recommend following manufacturer guidelines to ensure safety, durability, and warranty coverage.If you have any questions about proper installation or product use, please reach out to our customer service department and a team member will be happy to assist.

        Sand and scrape it down then apply a pre stain wood conditioner twice 5 hours apart then stain

        By|Nov 13, 2025

          Hi Matt, We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you reaching out. Pine is typically considered a carpet-grade tread, as it tends to absorb stain unevenly. If you’re aiming for a more consistent finish, we recommend using an oak species instead, as it stains more evenly. For stain-related questions, it’s always helpful to speak with someone in the Paint/Stain department at your local store for expert advice. If you have any other questions, feel free to contact our customer service team at 678-455-5188, Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. We’re happy to help!

            What size of nail do I use if I’m laying it on existing stair ?
            ByApr 24, 2025
            1 Answer | 
            Answer This Question

            Hi Lore, For installing treads over existing stairs, 15-gauge, 2-inch finish nails should suffice. To ensure extra security, we recommend applying a thin bead of construction adhesive to the stringers before nailing the treads in place.

                Answer This Question

                Hi Fadi, Trim head screws are ok as long as the user understands they will be visible after installation. Using wood putty to cover the holes and sanding them smooth would be the next steps before finishing.

                  You'll whine if you buy this pine
                  If you are replacing basement steps and will be painting them, these might take the paint. If you are planning on staining them, buy something else. I stained with a Minwax English Chestnut. The look had intense lights and darks not in a good way. This laminate can't be pine. Every tread looks like stained plywood if you can imagine that. Also, there was glue residue on every piece and on both sides. I am pitching these and going with a better product. Luckily it didn't cost much to learn a lesson. Cheap doesn't win on this one.

                  Hi Quartersawn1,We're sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with the pine riser. Our pine risers are not designed to be paint-grade. We recommend you use a primed riser, or other paint-grade riser so that the results are more appealing. These pine risers are designed for carpet-grade stairs, or utility stairs such as attic or basement stairs. If you have additional questions, please reach out to our customer service department and a team member will be happy to assist. M-F 9am-5pm 678-455-5188. Thank you. SureWood-LNL

                    These are gorgeous! Added golden pecan stain after a conditioner. Finished with a satin poly. Such an improvement over the brown carpet that was my stairs.

                    Don’t buy if you want to use stain
                    Put all the treads down and then stained. Bad idea. I’ve done plenty of wood working projects and never seen anything like it. It looked like marbling and I had to put 5 coats of stain and still wouldn’t take evenly. Yes I used wood conditioner first. Ive built tables, chairs, bookcases, desks, you name it and never had an issue. Had to rip up all the treads and buy red oak to replace.

                    Hi Autumnshine,
                    Thank you for sharing your feedback and experience. Pine is a softer wood with natural grain variation, which can cause stain to absorb unevenly—even when using wood conditioner. For this reason, we do not recommend staining pine treads, especially when trying to match the appearance of red oak.If a stained finish is desired, we recommend using red oak treads for a more consistent and even result. However, if the project will be painted—particularly in a darker color—pine treads should perform well. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and understand how frustrating this situation can be.If you have any additional questions , feel free to call our Customer Care Team at 678-455-5188 (M-F, 8am-4pm ET), and we will answer your questions directly. Thank you. SureWood-LNL

                      I used these to make shoe shelves for my closet. I love them. Each 48” shelf I used 4. Cut one in half for the ends and used the other 3 for shelves attached with wood screws. Fast and easy. I made 2 for 8 running feet in my closet.
