Staircases done the right way.

Custom staircases, tread and riser work, and hardwood stair refinishing designed to match the rest of the home.

Overview

The work, in context.

Stairs are the most visible wood surface in most homes and also the hardest to build cleanly. Tread depth, riser height, nosing profile, and baluster spacing all interact with local code. The materials have to either match the surrounding floors or contrast with them on purpose. We handle full rebuilds. We do retread-and-riser refacing over existing stringers. We convert closed stairs to open-tread, and we refinish existing stairs so they tie into newly installed floors.

Why it matters

A staircase that doesn't match the floors below and above it will pull attention in every photo of the house, for the wrong reasons. Matching species, grain orientation, stain, and sheen across stairs and floors is detail work that most general contractors sub out. We keep it in-house so the tone is consistent from the first tread to the last plank.

FAQ

Common questions.

Can you refinish stairs to match new floors?

Yes. Matching tone and sheen between floors and stairs is a common part of our work, especially on larger remodels.

Do you rebuild stairs that other contractors want to replace?

In many cases, yes. We evaluate whether the staircase can be restored cleanly before recommending full replacement.

Do stair projects require permits?

Most refacing and refinishing and tread-replacement work does not require a permit. Structural changes to stringers or layout or headroom generally do. We flag permit-sensitive work during the walkthrough before scheduling.
