Boris Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 We have an oak and glass staircase, with risers and treads in MDF, so we can carpet it. The underside will be visible, so what do we do ? I have thought of 2 options. One plasterboard it or try to get some oak plywood to cover it. This though will need an oak trim to finish it off. Could you post pics of your finished staircases and any other advice would be gratefully received. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is all I did with ours I was tempted to use an oak ply But thought it may look a little dark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Punter Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Plasterboard is neat enough. Also more fire resistant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted July 15, 2020 Author Share Posted July 15, 2020 Thanks for that. Our staircase has 1/4 turn no landing. Here are some pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Temp Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Our carpenter used oak veneered MDF. Looks identical to the rest of the staircase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
