Preparation
Before you install vinyl planks, you need to prepare the stairs. Keep these tips in mind as you get everything ready for installation.
You’ll need to let your vinyl planks acclimate to your space for up to 48 hours, so you’ll have plenty of time for preparation.
Remove any existing molding or trim around the stairs
You need to make sure there is room for the stair nose (the top edge trim of the stair). To do this, remove stair overhangs using a jigsaw, and cut back the baseboard.
Ensure the stairs and any landings are level, without any bumps. You can level out cracks or bumps (like exposed screws) by using caulking
Sweep or vacuum up any dirt or dust
Now, it’s finally time for the main event – installing the vinyl planks on your stairs! We’ve got step-by-step instructions to walk you through the whole process. As you install, you should start from the bottom of the staircase and work your way up.
A stair riser is the vertical surface of each stair. The first thing you need to do is determine if you want to install vinyl planks on this surface, or if you want to give it some other treatment, like staining or painting it in a coordinating color.
If you choose to install vinyl flooring on each stair riser, here’s what you’ll need to do.
Measure the length and height of the riser and cut a vinyl plank to fit.
Spread adhesive on the back of the plank and firmly press it against the riser.
Fasten the corners and edges with screws or nails, so the plank stays secure as the adhesive dries. Don’t install fasteners in the middle of the plank, where they are easier to see.
