The stringer on the right side of the stair was not nailed to the wall causing the treads to cracking and sinking on the right side. I replaced all the treads and risers, added my S.D. Crutches ,and secured the right stringer. New box newel posts and stained it Dark walnut .

This stair from 1917 in Fairview NJ. Now this stair was one of my favorites. This one was hanging off its last thread. Treads were sinking, cracked, and separated from the stringer.

Custom made balusters installed. Oak cove molding. Stained Dark Walnut
