Shannon, you're honestly a national treasure. The amount of people you help with your videos, and the HouseImprovements forum is incredible.

@johnhowardnardine6815 2 жыл бұрын

Your videos are so informative because you don't only show 'what' you are doing, but you explain your thinking about 'why' you're making the decisions you've made about your process. Obviously, every home DIY project is going to have some variations compared to the one you're demonstrating with, but if we understand why certain steps are done then we can make adjustments to our own process confidently.

Repent to Jesus Christ “no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and this is their vindication from me,” declares the Lord.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭54:17‬ ‭NIV‬‬

I jumped on KZfaq to find out how to measure up tread accurately before cutting and I found the solution in your jig. It will be the cause of my neighbours wondering why my swearing has stopped. Thanks for posting.

This is an awesome video, using the jig really helps too for uneven walls or slight variances in tread length to fill in those gaps. Thanks Shannon.

Your videos provide a wealth of information by not just demonstrating the "what" of your actions, but also delving into the "why" behind the decisions shaping your process. While each home DIY project may exhibit unique deviations from the one showcased, comprehending the rationale behind specific steps empowers us to confidently adapt and fine-tune our own approach.

Always very informative. I've been looking at redoing my main staircase and vinyl plank may be the answer over more traditional thicker boards or having to rip out the existing steps. Since its so thin, you really don't have to worry about changing the riser/step height and make the "feel" odd or way out of the normal 8" it typically is. Less than 1/4" will not be noticed.

Thanks Shannon. This is the exactly what I need. Almost looks like the same half staircase down to my basement. I've already ripped up the old carpet and I'm using LVP for the flooring, so I need to replace with the LVP risers and treads. I had no idea how to do the bullnosing, so this video is perfect for my use case. Thanks again.

Once again I tuned into your channel to see if I could get a problem resolved. As usual, you came through again. Thanks. Everyone I talked to who “does” vinyl flooring said there’s no way to do stairs cleanly. They won’t take vinyl jobs with stairs. Once again I’m a cut above the competition because of your in depth tutorial videos. You better not retire from sharing your experience on University of KZfaq. 👍👍

Thank you for doing this video, I’ve wanted to do the same to our stairs for quite sometime but wasn’t sure how to proceed and also get the proper nose edge. I do worry that the stairs will be slippery but the nose seem to look as though it would help keep someone on socks from slipping. Great job

@hashimamodmia1135 2 жыл бұрын

I want to do that on my stairs aswell but little worried about slipping specially with socks so 🤔 still thinking .

@ericssclarke Жыл бұрын

I think I prefer the heating and bending jig for the nose but that forces you to the wider planks. I am concerned about slipping for my project too. I suppose you could route out a few very shallow grooves on the treads, but not sure how that would look, and I expect it voids the material warranty. I’d hope the manufactures would offer stair tread with nose and slip solution. Your cutting jig is a great idea.

@jshawn209 2 жыл бұрын

It’s best to put the riser piece on top of the tread. That will give you a nice straight board edge to lay on top as well as keep the dust, dirt and grime from getting down in the gaps after everything settles. Looks good though sir👍

@HouseImprovements 2 жыл бұрын

Actually this nosing was basically the same cost as a comparable aluminum nosing made for the same purpose. These were $30 /8' and we could get 2 noses per piece so it really was not that bad and you need a nosing anyways and this looks great IMO if you can find one that matches your flooring as well as this one did.
