    A friend is looking for someone to repair/restore the bottom step at an old house in Worcester.  It broke when a heavy piece of furniture fell on it during moving.  They can't sell the house until it is fixed.  If you might be interested in this work call me for details (978) 257 6505

    Jim,


    I had the same issue with the bottom step of my attic stairs (broken tread) and drilled horizontal holes for hardwood dowels.

    Glued in the dowels and edge glued the tread with a wedged brace to the wall opposite the stair landing. It’s lasted 10 years of my sons running up and down the stairs to their gaming studio without breaking.
