Material guide

Stair parts by flooring type

Tread Space makes stair parts from the flooring supplied for your project rather than a look-alike color match. What can be made, and what we need to know, varies with the material. This guide sorts the product range by flooring type.

Composite and vinyl plank (WPC, SPC, LVP)

Composite stairnose profiles are made from the composite or vinyl plank flooring supplied for the project, in four length ranges: up to 48 inches, 48 to 60 inches, 60 to 72 inches, and custom length. The install guide's overlap profile is commonly used for LVP retrofits over an existing tread.

Engineered and solid hardwood

Wood stairnose is made by hand from approved wood flooring, in the same four length ranges as the composite line. Wall-to-wall treads and risers provide full step coverage, with options depending on plank width.

Laminate

Laminate is offered for stair nosing only. Send the exact product details and a label photo for review. Tread Space does not promise laminate treads, risers, returns or floating treads.

What every material needs

Brand, product or collection, color name and SKU from the box label, plus a photo of the label.

Plank length, width and thickness.

Stair count, each stair width, and which sides are open.

Whether surplus flooring is available and roughly how many boxes; material handling is confirmed after review.

Stair parts by flooring brand

Using a specific brand? These pages explain how stair parts are built from that brand's planks. Tread Space is not affiliated with any flooring brand; we build stair parts from flooring you choose.
