Hi, I am planning to renovate my staircase and am interested in cladding the treads with hardwood. One of the methods I have seen for this (mainly on American YT videos which I appreciate may not be applicable to UK staircase construction methods) is to cut the bullnose off the existing tread before gluing the hardwood bullnose tread on top.
Does anyone have experience of this as I'm not sure if cutting off the bullnose, back to where the riser meets the tread will weaken the structure at all, or if there are any other points to consider?
Many thanks
