text:  What would be your advice on what I should do with that step? Well, Maya, I tell you, that's a heck of a mess you got yourself into there because trying to remove that carpet that's glued on is very difficult under any circumstances. There are adhesive removers that you can use, but the best you're going to get is it's going to soften it up, and then maybe you can kind of scrape it flat. Now, I do have one idea for you, and that is for you to try to apply pavers on top of this old step.
