Treads, Risers and Nosing

Bernardston homeowners choose among red oak, white oak, hickory and maple for treads. Each one is milled a full inch thick, runs 11 1/2 inches from nose to riser, carries a bull nose and ships with that riser.

Tread Samples at Home

The Bernardston estimator brings tread samples in the truck. Rest them on your floor at the bottom step and it becomes obvious which wood belongs there.

Quiet, Solid Steps

Nothing new goes on a Bernardston stair until every step that rocks has been screwed to the stringers. After that each tread is scribed in, bedded in adhesive and nailed.

One Year Stair Warranty

Bernardston stair labor is covered for twelve months, and the people building it are NWFA certified, insured and licensed employees. If a tread ever loosens, we come back.

Stair Installers in Bernardston

Farmhouses on Huckle Hill, capes by the common in Bernardston Center, ranches on Routes 5 and 10 and older houses in the Burke Fort Area have all had stairs rebuilt by this crew. Paint or carpet is stripped, every loose step is anchored, risers and hardwood treads go in, and the staining is done inside the house, usually all within a day.

/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

The steep back stair of a Bernardston farmhouse and the wide front staircase of a Federal near the common need different wood, risers and trim, and we go through the options with you.

Red Oak Treads

Red oak under a warm stain belongs beside the old floors of a Huckle Hill farmhouse.

White Oak Treads

White oak stays pale and clean on a Bernardston Center stair that gets strong morning light.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory takes barn grit without complaint, and maple lightens a dark back stairwell in a Bernardston farmhouse.

Painted or Wood Risers

Around Bernardston Center, risers go either white painted or oak in the same stain as the tread.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

An open stair in a renovated ranch near Interstate 91 gets return ends so each tread is finished on its exposed side.

Landing Treads

At the top of a Huckle Hill farmhouse stair, a landing tread sits level with the second floor.

How much is one new hardwood step in Bernardston?

Bernardston pays $60 per step. Hardwood tread, riser, bull nose, stain to suit your floor and the labor all come inside that number.

Will you take the old carpet off my farmhouse stairs?

Yes. The carpet and pad come off your Bernardston stairs, then the tack strips and staples, and the cost of removal is set while we are on site.

Can my painted farmhouse treads just be refinished?

If solid oak hides under the paint in a Bernardston house, hand sanding and refinishing runs $50 per step. Treads that have cracked or worn thin get replaced.

Can my Bernardston risers be oak to match the treads?

Yes. Oak risers in the tread stain make a Bernardston staircase read as all wood, while white painted risers give crisp contrast.

Will new treads stop the squeaks?

On most Bernardston stairs they do. Every step that rocks is screwed down first, and each tread is scribed, bedded in adhesive and nailed so nothing shifts.

How is an open sided Bernardston stair finished?

Each exposed end gets a return, so the nose carries around the side and the Bernardston tread looks complete from any angle.

How fast can the Bernardston crew start, and how long does it take?

Prefinished treads are special ordered and take weeks to arrive. Unfinished Bernardston stairs often begin the next day and are finished in two.

Is the stair work warrantied?

Yes. Bernardston stair labor carries a one year warranty, and the crew building the stairs is NWFA certified, insured and licensed.
