Installation Instructions - Deck Resurfacing

Deck stairs can be covered in a similar fashion as the deck surface, but a
few more steps are needed.
Screw Grids to the Stair Treads:
In all stair applications it is required to
fasten the grid to the stair tread with
deck screws.

• Use 1.5" deck screws.

• Screw each grid to the stair tread with

four screws, each placed approximately 2" in from the corners.

Adhering Pavers to Grid:
OPTIONAL: To reduce movement of the pavers, a recommended adhesive
can be used between the pavers and the grid. Some customers may prefer
this in high traffic areas (e.g. outside of doors, at the top of steps).

• Using a recommended adhesive (see page 2) place a 1/4" bead across

the top ribs of the grid.

• Place the paver in the grid and press down firmly.

• Let pavers sit undisturbed for duration of adhesive cure time.

• A 28 oz. tube of adhesive will cover approximately 25 square feet.
Edging and Trim:
In a similar fashion as edging the surface of the deck, the stairs must also
be edged to secure the pavers in place and give them a finished look.
Use a Skirt Board for the Riser and Side Trim:
• Run the skirt board up 1-3/4" above the deck surface to meet up with the

height of the pavers.

• Fasten the skirt board with the appropriate fasteners.
Use AZEK Resurfacing Bullnose Pavers:
• Refer to page 21.

AZEK Pavers should not be filled with joint sand when installed on a deck.
