Porcelain wood-look tile and stair treads

10 years ago

Does anyone have suggestions (or pictures) for how to treat your stair treads if you are using porcelain wood-look tile on your floors? It seems to me that real wood treads would not blend with the wood-look tile. So I am stumped on what to use for stair treads. The only thing I can think to do is paint the treads and put a carpet runner on them.

Tile shop suggested the wood-look tile with a metal edging piece...it looked like the edging I have seen in some shower instalation; the metal that showed was very thin.

This is a little late, but it came across Provenza W-Age tile that offers stair treads. A 24" wide piece was $100 though at a local tile store. It's a very pretty tile if you like the end grain look.
