What's this?

Well, we'll just see about that! Yeah, I joke about the wetlands, but...


I guarantee that if you went in for a permit, you will need stamped, engineered plans in triplicate.

If you do it yourself, just make the risers is at least 7" and the run (actual step) 10", and you are good to go. The trick is to not make that first step too tall, and uneven with the rest! The stringer has to be calculated and cut to account for the thickness of the treads - and the first one is always shorter.
