Outdoor Stairs that will last -30 degrees

[Pranav Bhatia]

Hello folks,

We recently bought our first duplex and we are obviously house hacking.

A small problem though, we have an outdoor staircase which is very unstable and ready to break off anytime someone is on it.

Question: how to fix this problem ? What kind of material should we use to build the staircase? Should we build it from scratch or try to find a ready made one?

Note: we’re in the Montréal, Quebec area and it’s -35 degrees in winters with lot’s of snow, so the material need to be bought accordingly.
