Stair Installation Cost
Ashfield stairs are rebuilt at $60 per step, one flat number per tread. That covers the hardwood tread itself, a fresh riser, the rounded nosing, stain blended to the floor at the top and the bottom, and our own installers doing the fitting.
New Hardwood Stairs
The $60 step buys a solid hardwood tread an inch thick, a riser beneath it, rounded nosing on the front, stain in your chosen color and the fitting by our own installers.

Tread Samples at Home
The estimator brings tread blanks in each species. Stand them next to your hall floor at the bottom step and the match is obvious in your own light.

Quiet, Solid Steps
Old farmhouse stairs wobble, so the first job is screwing the loose steps down to the stringers. After that each tread is cut to the exact wall, set in construction adhesive and fastened.

One Year Stair Warranty
The staircase is built by licensed, insured, NWFA certified people on our payroll, and the labor is backed for twelve months. If a tread moves, we come back.
/ OUR SERVICES
Stair Installers in Ashfield
In town we handle everything from steep back stairs in 1800s farmhouses near Baptist Corner to open flights in converted barns and the lake camps off Route 116. We strip the carpet, screw down every loose step and fit new risers and hardwood treads, usually in a day, with the stain brushed on inside the house.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
A tight farmhouse back stair and a broad front hall flight need different treads, risers and trim, and we go over every choice with you.
Red Oak Treads
Warm stained red oak sits comfortably with the old floors in the farmhouses near Baptist Corner.
White Oak Treads
White oak keeps a clean, pale grain in a lake house that fills with morning light.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Hickory shrugs off boots and firewood, and maple lightens a dark farmhouse stairwell.
Painted or Wood Risers
Village homeowners go either way on risers: painted white for contrast, or oak in the tread color for an all wood look.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
An open sided flight in a renovated barn gets return ends, so the rounded edge wraps around the exposed side of each tread.
Landing Treads
On Ridge Hill we set the top landing tread flush with the second floor so nobody trips on the last step.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does a new step cost in Ashfield?
$60 per step. That single number pays for the hardwood tread, the riser, the rounded nosing, stain blended to your floor and the labor to fit it.
Can you get the old carpet off my farmhouse stairs?
Yes. Carpet, pad, every tack strip and staple come out, and the removal price is agreed with you at the free estimate before anything starts.
Are my existing treads worth refinishing?
If the oak is solid, hand sanding and refinishing come to $50 per step. Cracked treads or ones worn thin at the nose get replaced instead.
Do the risers have to be white?
No. Risers in oak stained like the treads make an all wood stair, while white painted risers give sharper contrast. Ashfield homes use both.
Will the creaks go away?
Almost always. Loose steps get screwed to the stringers before anything new goes on, and every tread is glued and fastened so it cannot shift.
What about a stair that is open on one side?
Each exposed tread end gets a return piece, so the rounded nosing continues around the side and nothing looks unfinished.
When could the crew begin, and for how many days?
Unfinished treads are usually in stock, so work often starts the day after the estimate and wraps in a day or two. Prefinished treads are special order and take a few weeks.
Is there a guarantee on the stairs?
Yes. Labor carries twelve months of warranty, and the installers are our own licensed, insured, NWFA certified employees.
