Default Stairs

Hi, I am new to the forum, my name is Ken.

In answer to your question, yes, you can use the laminate on the stairs.
I have done 2 such instances.

The metal that you are describing sounds like old school stair nose for the tile. Remove the metal. Remove the old tile if you can.

Decide if you want to put laminate on the risers or paint those.

I used the laminate. Buy stair nose that matches your laminate. Install the stair nose with construction adhesive and brads from a nail gun.

I have a 130lb Rotweiller and have had NO issues, other than the fact I had to put runners or he wouldn't go up...lol

Email me if you get stuck.
