Hi all - just found termite damage to cellar stairs (we knew of termites but not of this particular damage - house has been treated)

I need to replace them and was wondering where I could purchase stringers,
whether pressure treated would be an acceptable choice (unfinished basement) and how difficult a project this is.

You should be able to find these at your local lumber yard or home center. You might find the following article on this website helpful:

Thanks for info - I asked at one of the "big" Home Imp stores - the info provided in the link you sent was much more detailed.
