That stair tread replacement ate my whole Saturday
Tried swapping a rotted tread on a client's staircase in Arlington last week. Thought it'd be a 2 hour job. Ended up spending 6 hours because the stringer had hidden water damage underneath. Anyone else run into surprise rot inside a seemingly simple fix?

Oh man, that reminds me of my buddy Dave who tried fixing one step at his grandma's place and found the whole bottom half of the stringer was basically dust. Took him a full weekend to rebuild half the staircase.

Yeah that's not really how stringers work but close enough I guess.
