Treads, Risers and Nosing

Red oak, white oak, hickory or maple: the treads measure a full inch in thickness, 11 1/2 inches front to back, rounded along the leading edge, with a riser paired to each.

Tread Samples at Home

Tread samples ride along with the estimator. Set them beside your floor at the foot of the stairs and the match is obvious.

Quiet, Solid Steps

Loose steps in an old Athol staircase get screwed down first. Then every tread is scribed to the stringers, glued and fastened.

One Year Stair Warranty

The stair installers hold NWFA certification and full insurance, and their work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something shifts, we return and fix it.

/ OUR SERVICES

Stair Installers in Athol

We rebuild stairs in Uptown triple deckers, River Valley capes, Athol Center colonials and ranches near the Starrett Plant Area. Carpet comes off, loose steps are anchored, and new risers and hardwood treads go in, often in one day. Stain is applied on site.

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

A steep mill house stair and a wide colonial flight in Athol Center ask for different wood, risers and trim, and we walk you through each choice.

Red Oak Treads

Warm stained red oak matches the original floors in Athol's older mill houses.

White Oak Treads

In a sunlit Athol Center front hall, white oak's light, even grain stands out.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory handles winter grit by the back door, and maple brightens a dark stairwell in a River Valley cape.

Painted or Wood Risers

Uptown owners go either way: risers painted white, or oak risers finished in the same color as the treads.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

An open sided stair in a Main Street home gets return ends that wrap each tread's exposed edge.

Landing Treads

In the River Valley the landing tread sits flush with the second floor at the top step.

What is the cost per step for new stairs in Athol?

$60 per step, and that already holds the oak tread, the riser, the rounded nose, a color pulled from your floor and the installation.

Will you remove the old stair carpet?

Yes. Yes. We pull the carpet, the pad, the tack strip and every staple, and that removal is priced at the free visit.

Can my existing treads be refinished instead?

If they are sound hardwood, yes, for $50 per step hand sanded and refinished. Cracked or worn through treads are replaced.

Do I have to choose white risers?

No. Oak risers stained like the treads give an all wood staircase, while white paint gives contrast. Both are common Uptown.

Will the squeaking stop?

In most cases. Loose steps are screwed tight first, and each new tread is fitted, glued and fastened so nothing moves.

How do you finish an open side?

Each exposed tread end gets a return, so the rounded nose continues along the side and the stair looks finished from every angle.

How fast can you start and finish?

Unfinished treads let us start the next day and wrap most stairs in two. Prefinished treads are ordered and take a few weeks.

Is there a warranty on the stairs?

Yes. Twelve months on the stair labor, from NWFA certified installers who carry insurance.
