Indoor stairs creak - time to rebuild
We have a 2017 3720RL, and the interior stairs creaked slightly when we brought it home but it has now grown to a significant annoyance. It is a nice , even interesting character issue in a 100 year old house but not in a new-ish RV.
I have removed a panel from the side of the outside access storage that accesses the space under the hallway adjacent to the stairs. You can see all of area under the first step.
The creaking would seem to be wood on wood and the stairs have been screwed or nailed but not glued. It needs to be torn apart and reconstructed with glue. The open space inside the stairs (curved and larger than just 2 conventional stairs, picture included) is too much of an opportunity to improve storage while it is rebuilt.
Has any one else taken on rebuilding stairs? It is not particularly difficult and a great chance to insert some creativity.
