Step 4 · Clean, Peel, and Stick: Starting from the Top

Now for the satisfying part! We recommend working from the top step downwards. This smart approach keeps you from stepping on and potentially disturbing the treads you've already securely installed. Simply peel the protective backing from your first Oak Valley Designs tread, carefully align it with the center mark you made, and gently place it onto the step. The beauty of our adhesive is its forgiving nature, allowing slight adjustments before firm pressure.

Work from the top step down so you're never standing on treads you've already placed, keeping fresh adhesive undisturbed while it sets.
