Doing every other step was a great idea. How long do you have to wait before you can walk on the steps the after the first coating?
@@tavonb6478 I recommend doing th 2nd or 3rd coat of polyurethane before you walk on them. I waited 24 hours after my final coat before walking on them.
be nice to see Carpet and underlay in my hallway and stairs soon,I have laid a stairs carpet before,Know the easy ways of fitted it down
Great job 👏🏾
What tool did you use to paint the white steps?
It's called an edger paint brush
I have to do the same exact thing to mone, thanks bud.
I want to do this as well for my stairs. I’m glad I found your video, very helpful. We have what I believe is golden oak. I would like to make them more of a Smokey grey look, do you think that’s possible? Thank you in advance.
It may be possible. Make sure to sand down any previous stain and apply the right stain that matches the color you're going for. Make sure to test a small area first and let it dry to see if you like it before doing all the stairs.
That is beautiful!!! I think I may try that in my home!! Looks very clean!
What size is the deck?
How deep did you dig for the blocks?
Each hole is a bit different because the ground wasn't leveled. However, I would recommend going about 4-6 inches deep.
Love the final design!
20 years from now... Whos the moron that covered these perfectly good concrete steps with rotting wood..
thats gonna sink into the ground over time
I did something similar 17 years ago, my dad said the same thing. It hasn't sunk at all lol
Hi. This video and detailed explanations, step by step just encouraged me to build an outside storage box. Thank you for making it so clear and easy to follow. Just to tell you, I am 75, and you gave me he courage to build exactly what I need. 😊
what if the concrete is all crumbly underneath
Hey, I wouldn't attempt using this method if the concrete is crumbling as it won't last and be unsafe.
Hey watching this video because I’m interested in just doing it myself. What did you apply on the floor after removing the parquet flooring before applying the new floor?
Hey! After removing the parquet I added an underlayment before installing the laminate flooring.
What is it and thank you for your immediate response.
Do you have the video about how you placed the underlayment?
@@TheDehelwitya Here is a video of me installing underlayment and laminate flooring: ua-cam.com/video/I6H14BBI5zs/v-deo.html&ab_channel=RenoForLess
its very hard to put the screws in to concrete , I used concrete nails and they work much faster
Nice, that's a good option as well
Great video. I need to do this to store outdoor cushions. What's that device called that you used for drilling diagonal holes?
Thanks! The tool is called a pocket hole jig. Good luck!
couldn't follow with the irritating music.
I love your deck. What a beautiful deck you have there.
Did you manage to do it all in one cut or did you have to do more?
The stairs was done all in one cut (cut a little extra so you can trim afterwards). The landing above the stairs has it's own piece.
@@renoforless I suppose the best place to cut it as I'm going to have to is just under the lip where you can't see it. You know the rounded part at the tip of the stair. I was just looking for help on how to cut it.
@@paulanthony5274 Yes, that's correct. best to cut it right under the bullnose (rounded part) of the landing.
I'm going to do this, plus the attach tiny patio (so tiny that one chair would block the doorway). Very excited, your video was a very helpful guide
Best of luck!
Hi, what is the name of the grout you are using, and where can you get it please?
Hi, I sued a pre-mixed grout from Home Depot. I can't remember the exact brand but I believe it was Simple Grout.
Hi, your video is the best i have seen on here , i have subscribed and liked, thank you, you have done a great job, i hope mine turnes out like yours 🙂
What was up with her standing in front of the camera
Well done!
You make it look so easy!😃
Miscegenation is disgusting 🤮
Cute gf moment ☺️ lol
Good job
The fact that these stairs are not uniformly below the doors are driving me crazy
Just subbed and sent to my dad who is helping me with some renovations. Excellent project and just what I was hoping to find
Glad I could help, good luck with your renovations!
Sweatpants, sandals, and the partner assisted drink is def the vibes.
What finish do you recommend if you wanted to keep the natural color after you sanded it? I did this to my stairs and want to keep the light tone just protect it with a finish but keep the color.
The best option I could think of is using a water based polyurethane instead of an oil based one. Oiled based polyurethane tends to yellow a lot more than the water based ones.
Great video. Very useful information. How long did sanding take?
Thanks! It's been awhile since I did this but it took about 3 hours of sanding
Looks great! What size of masonry bit and what kind of screws did you use ?
Thanks! I used 1/4" x 4" tapcon screws. I believe I used 3/16 bit.
Wow that is very impressive good job
looks nice. I might build my deck this way, but maybe without visible screws. ua-cam.com/video/W4KsL1WHu7s/v-deo.html
Hi, i just came across your channel. I have a question. You just applied 2 coats of the polyurethane and didn't stain them.
I want to remove the carpet and remodel the stairs.
@@msaadkhan2709 Correct, I didn't stain them I wanted them to have a natural look.
I don't know the brand being used but many vinyl laminate plank manufacturers warn to not use underlayment. They have a built on rubber underlayment pad on the planks. Using your own in addition to this will not only make the process. Ore frustrating but also void the warranty. Check with your brand/manufacturer. I of course do not care what people do. Just sharing.
I followed the instructions. Thanks.
😮 no just no I’ve been doing this job for many years and ok it looks ok but the gripper is placed wrong underlay not sufficient to last , use the correct tools for the job
Why are you watching this If you already know
Make a video or show us a video that shows what you’re talking about.
You do realise he said “attempt to put the carpet” also said it’s not a tutorial
Good job bro.
Thanks!
Excited for the full video!
I've watched MANY & by far the BEST & most simple 👌. Thank you 😊 🙏. God bless.
Nice work. Thanks, I have been wanting a way to enhance the look of my concrete stairs. I will definitely use this technique.
Thanks!
Not bad for a diy. Your padding is upside down though
😮😮das wäre wohl der letzte Schritt. Vorher rettet man wohl altes Parkett!!!
Great informative video tutorial You've inspired me to give it a go myself! Thanks for the tips 🙏
I'm glad I could help!
The colorful soft pad not being perfectly cut - is that something that's noticeable once the carpet is laying on top?
Bro, jsut a comment. You are using the sliding miter saw backwards...look at the direction the blade is spinning. Just sore the top as you drag it back and plundge into the wood and push forward. You cuts will be clean and more accurate as you are also pushing the stock inot the fence....
looks good. im debating on using the tack strips, but it seems like everyone is using them.
Thanks! I would recommend using the tack strips it will help prevent the carpet from moving and sagging.
