ᐅ Concrete staircase in a new build, looking for design ideas

For our single-family home, we are planning a concrete staircase. Covering it with wood is estimated to cost around 5300 euros, excluding the concrete staircase itself.

That is really too expensive for us. Do you have any ideas on how to design or treat the concrete staircase differently to save costs? Tiles are not an option; we simply don’t like them. Has anyone here just painted their concrete staircase? I would appreciate any suggestions, preferably with photos.

We will cover our concrete staircase ourselves with wood – it costs about 1,600 to 2,000 euros for 15 steps, depending on whether you want glued laminated treads or treads made from a single piece. We will not install risers. Google is your friend.

A link would be helpful, I have the same problem right now 🙂

LOL – if you ever see a factory-made or cast-in-place concrete stair, you probably won’t feel like painting it.

Order wooden treads yourself. There are plenty of suppliers here and in Poland who custom-make them to size.
