What to do Before Stair Installation

Before you begin your project of stair installation, you have to be prepared. You cannot just dive in without any background information on your project. So before anything else, here are a few things you should do:

Know your stairs

Stair installation involves of course, stairs. Thus you should know your stairs. You should be able the stair parts and the function of each. Observe also how each part is anchored to another part of the stair. At this time, read and review DIY stair installation articles too. You can watch videos too. Doing those will help you install your stairs smoothly.

Prepare your materials and equipment

Previously, you have learned what to do during the actual stair installation. You already know what materials and equipment to use. This time, you will be gathering the said materials. Make a check list of the said materials so that you’ll know whether your materials are already complete or not.

Print out a step by step instruction

When the time comes for your stair installation project, it helps to have a handy copy of a step by step instruction on stair installation. This way, you can glance time and time again to your copy if you are doing things right.

As you do your stair installation, pay attention to detail. Do not rush into the process. Take time to measure the balusters, stair treads, or anything that needs to be measured. Take time to cut your iron balusters so that your result will be simply flawless.
