Treads, Risers and Nosing

Arlington treads come in maple, hickory, white oak or red oak, every one bull nosed, a full inch of solid wood, 11 1/2 inches deep, with a riser to match.

Tread Samples at Home

Tread samples ride in the Arlington estimator's truck. Lean them against your bottom step next to the existing floor and the right species is obvious.

Quiet, Solid Steps

Before a single Arlington tread goes on, wobbly steps get screwed to the stringers. Each new tread is then scribed to the skirt, glued and fastened down for good.

One Year Stair Warranty

Every Arlington staircase is built by NWFA certified installers who are licensed and insured, and the labor carries twelve months of coverage. Anything that slips is ours to put right.

/ OUR SERVICES

Stair Installers in Arlington

Arlington stair jobs take us to East Arlington two families, Victorians near the Jason Russell House, Arlington Heights capes and colonials by the Mystic Lakes. The carpet is stripped, wobbly steps are screwed tight, and new risers and hardwood treads are fitted, usually within a day. Staining happens on site.

/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

The narrow back stair of a two family and the broad front flight of an Arlington Victorian call for different treads, risers and trim, and we walk you through the choice.

Red Oak Treads

Warm stained red oak matches the old floors in Victorians near the Cyrus Dallin Art Museum.

White Oak Treads

White oak shows a clean pale grain in an Arlington Heights colonial with morning sun.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory stands up to grit from the Minuteman Bikeway, and maple brightens a dark Arlington two family stairwell.

Painted or Wood Risers

Arlington owners along Massachusetts Avenue split between white painted risers and oak risers stained to the tread.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

An open stair in a Spy Pond condo gets return ends that round each Arlington tread on the exposed side.

Landing Treads

At the top step of a colonial near the Mystic Lakes, the landing tread finishes flush with the second floor.

What does one new hardwood step cost in Arlington?

$60 per step in Arlington. Tread, riser, bull nose, a stain blended to your floor and the labor are all inside that figure.

Will you pull the old carpet off our Arlington stairs?

Yes. Carpet, pad, tack strips and every staple come off the Arlington stairs, and the removal cost is agreed on at the estimate.

Can our existing oak treads just be refinished?

Solid treads can. Hand sanding and refinishing them runs $50 a step in Arlington, while cracked or worn thin treads get replaced instead.

Can the risers be oak instead of painted?

Yes. Stained oak risers make an all wood Arlington staircase, and white painted ones give a sharper contrast with the treads.

Will new treads fix the squeak in our two family?

Nearly always. The loose steps are screwed down before anything else, and every new Arlington tread is fitted, glued and fastened so it stays quiet.

How is an Arlington stair that is open on one side finished?

A return piece is fitted to every exposed tread end, carrying the rounded nose around the open side of the Arlington stair so no raw edge shows.

How soon can an Arlington stair job start, and how long does it run?

Unfinished treads let the Arlington crew begin the next day, and most flights are done inside two. Prefinished treads are a special order that adds a few weeks.

Is your Arlington stair work warrantied?

Yes. Twelve months on the labor, from Arlington crews that are licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
