Re: Stair Tread & Iron Balluster Shoe

I have no experience in Cabuyao.
I had one project in Calamba, but that was nearly 20 years ago, but
anyway...

MATIMCO, TIMBERCO et. al. offer pre-nosed tread boards, but most of
their offerings aren't solid: they favor finger jointed lumber, which is not
as pretty, but is environmentally responsible and dimensionally stable. If
you are willing to router the nosings yourself, any decent lumber dealer
can help you meet your needs, via true solid boards: just give them the
dimensions and tell them what it's for. If they say it has to be a special
order, then you will have to pay extra.

2. Iron Baluster Shoes

The term you're looking for is 'base collars'.
Architectural/ornamental iron components, such as collars and finials,
often keyworded "wrought iron" (even if they're actually cast iron) are
retailed by numerous vendors, but most of them are based in Central
Luzon. For example, search for "wrought iron" on sulit, and you'll find at
least one or two such vendors among a lot of unrelated results :

Even a box store like WILCON occasionally sells the same sort of cast iron
fence-accessories, but at horrific (200-400%) markups.
