First time posting. I need some advise on the best way to secure wood stair treads to cement sub flooring.
I just bought a house in Mexico and I will like to install wood stair treads 12 x 35 inches. The subflooring is cement and I do not know how to secure wood to cement. Does any one know how to secure them to cement?
Do I have to drill screws to secure?
Do I use liquid nail to secure or something different?
What is the best way to secure them wood to cement?
Your comments would be greatly appreciated.

Test for moisture to be sure you don't have moisture issues. If all's well, glue them down. Contact your wood supplier for recommended glues.
