   Take a new white riser and place it against the back of the prepared stair tread. Mark the riser for both length and height, accounting for any slight imperfections or variations in the existing stair structure. Use a pencil to transfer these measurements to the riser. Then, use a table saw for precise cuts to trim the riser to the exact size. Once cut, double-check the fit in place. Apply a generous bead of construction adhesive (Loctite PL3X Stronger Premium) to the back of the riser. Press the riser firmly into place against the existing stair, ensuring it's properly aligned, and then secure it with 2-inch nails using a nail gun. Repeat this process for all risers on the staircase, working your way up.
