Floating Block Treads — Frequently Asked Questions

The questions customers ask right before requesting a quote.

You supply the flooring. We fabricate your own planks into finished stair parts so the color, grain, and sheen match your floor exactly. Drop material off at our Tukwila shop or ship it to us — we'll confirm the address when your order is placed.

It depends on the product, the plank width, and how many pieces you need. Send us your piece count and lengths and we'll tell you exactly how much material to bring before anything is cut. It's always better to send a little extra than to come up short mid-run.

Measure the finished opening wall-to-wall at the front edge of the step, then tell us whether each end is against a wall or open. If you're unsure, send photos and rough numbers — we review every order before fabrication and will flag anything that looks off.

Yes. We can supply pieces in full uncut lengths if you'd rather cut on site, or fabricate them to your exact finished dimensions. Just tell us which you prefer when you request your quote.

Yes. We fabricate left returns, right returns, both ends returned, or no returns at all — whatever your staircase layout requires.

All of them. We regularly fabricate from engineered hardwood, solid hardwood, LVP, and laminate from every major manufacturer. If your flooring can be milled, we can match it.

Most orders are fabricated within about one to two weeks after we receive your material and approved details. Timing varies with order size and shop volume — we'll give you a target date when your order is confirmed.

Yes. Most customers pick up at our Tukwila shop, but we can arrange delivery locally around Seattle and freight shipping outside the area. Shipping is quoted separately based on size and destination.

Tell us as soon as you notice. If material hasn't been cut yet we can adjust at no charge. Once pieces are fabricated, a remake requires additional flooring, so we always double-check your numbers with you before starting.

In most cases, yes. Send photos and, if possible, a sample piece or offcut. We'll match the profile and thickness so new pieces sit flush with what's already installed.

Only where an end of the piece will be visible. Stairs closed on both sides by walls don't need finished ends; open sides do. If you're not sure, send a photo of the staircase and we'll tell you.

Finished, sanded stair parts fabricated from your flooring and cut to your specified dimensions, with the returns and finished ends you selected. Adhesive, fasteners, and installation aren't included unless you ask.

Yes. We laminate your planks into a solid finished tread with the nose profile and returns you need, so the stair matches the floor it connects to.

People also ask

A return tread is a full stair tread with a finished, wrapped end for staircases that are open on one or both sides, so no raw edge is visible from the side.

A nosing only finishes the front edge of an existing step. A return tread replaces the whole tread surface as one finished piece.

Yes, most treads install with construction adhesive and fasteners over the existing stringer or sub-tread. We can also install for you locally.

Yes — that's the core of what Voda Stairs does. You supply the flooring and we mill it into stair noses, treads, risers, and trim that match your floor perfectly.

Yes. We fabricate custom treads to your exact dimensions, with left, right, both, or no returns.
