New stair builds, refinishing, custom treads and risers, balustrades. Open-riser modern, closed-riser traditional, floating treads — built to last decades.
A staircase is the most-touched piece of carpentry in your home. Wobbly newels, squeaks, gaps at the wall — they all come from cutting corners. We build stairs to architectural-grade tolerances.
Code-compliant rise/run, custom stringers, hardwood treads, choice of closed or open risers.
Sand back to bare wood, stain to spec, two coats of polyurethane. Matches existing flooring or stands alone.
Old colonial spindles swapped for iron pickets or glass panels. Newel posts re-set with proper anchoring.
Steel stringer hidden behind drywall, floating wood treads — modern statement piece.
Squeak fixes, tread/riser replacement, refinishing — without rebuilding the whole house.
Pressure-treated, cedar, composite, or stone — properly fastened, properly drained.
Yes — railing-only swaps are very common. We can swap colonial wood spindles for iron pickets or tempered glass without touching the treads/risers. Typical 2-day job.
$8,000–$15,000 for a standard interior stair refinish + new railings. $15,000–$35,000 for a full new build with hardwood treads and iron or glass railings. Floating-tread modern stairs run $25,000–$60,000.
Often yes — wedges and glue blocks installed from underneath (if the basement ceiling is open) or top-down screws into the stringer covered with wood plugs.
