Designing and building a set of exterior deck, porch or landscape stairs may be one of the trickiest jobs to face the do-it-yourselfer.

You may think it odd but we actually enjoy laying out and cutting stair stringers.

If you’ve never made stringers before our expertise can save you time, money and aggravation and there’s nothing odd about that.

Now a set of stairs that doesn’t quite reach the ground, that’s odd. Luckily, with a set of stringers from Apsley Home Building Centre it is also preventable.
