Staircase installation for LVP is a detailed process that begins with preparing the substrate to ensure it is clean and level. Each plank must be cut precisely for the tread and riser. It is imperative to use a stair-nose profile—a specialized molding—to secure the edge of the plank to the tread, providing safety and a finished look. High-grade construction adhesive is used to bond the LVP to the stair surface, and all edges should be caulked for a seamless appearance.
