In need of a sense check.
We have very tatty old carpet on our stairs and landings (two flights of 14 steps, 2 landings) and I’m keen on ditching the carpet and renovating the wood. I’ve stripped the paint off a couple to see what’s underneath (see pics) and would be interested to hear from people who’ve done similar if the condition of the wood is good enough to make this worthwhile.
