I’m looking for tips anyone can offer on installing
LVP cap- a-treads.
I have installed steps many times with hardwood,laminate, and LVP with separate stair nosings and tread planks.
I have a stair jig that I can use for this job.
I wondering if a sliding miter saw is the best tool to cut the width of the treads.
I also have a Milwaukee track saw which seems like it would work as good , if not better.
This job has 4 bottom steps that are open on one lside , and the rest are boxed steps ( stringer on both sides)
For the open steps I know I need to put a return on the backside ( which I know how to do).
What is the best type of adhesive to attach the side nosing/return to the step ?
CA glue with activator? If so which type ?
I wouldn’t want the material to shift or the glue to run.
For gluing the treads I was thinking PL Premium urethane adhesive with a few dabs of hot glue, so they don’t shift.
Also a labor price per step ( I know prices vary greatly from place to place).
Anything anyone can ofer would be appreciated!
