Stair Installers in Branford
We rebuild stairs in Branford cottages near Indian Neck, condos on Branford Hill and capes in Stony Creek. Old carpet comes up, loose treads are anchored and each new step is scribed to the wall.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
A steep cottage stair and a wide hillside staircase ask for different things, so we help you choose the wood, the risers and the trim.
Red Oak Treads
Red oak with a warm stain suits the older floors in houses near Branford Green.
White Oak Treads
White oak brings a pale, tidy grain to a stairwell with plenty of daylight.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Hickory takes beach sand tracked in from Short Beach, and maple brightens a dim stairwell.
Painted or Wood Risers
Some owners go with painted white risers, others prefer oak risers stained like the treads.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
A stair with one open side gets return ends that carry the tread over the edge.
Landing Treads
The top landing tread is cut flush with the second-floor boards.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does one new hardwood step cost in Branford?
Each step is $60 with the tread, riser, nosing, stain and labor included. Laminate on stairs is $50 per step.
Will you take up the old stair carpet?
Yes, we remove the carpet, pad and tack strips. The price is settled at your free estimate.
Do my current treads have to be replaced?
If the wood is solid, they can be refinished at $50 per step. Cracked or worn treads are better replaced.
Can you give me oak risers in the same color?
Yes, oak risers can be stained to match the treads, or painted white. Stained risers are part of the $60 step.
Will the stairs stop squeaking?
Squeaks come from loose boards, so we screw and glue every step as we rebuild it. Most noise is gone afterward.
How do you finish a stair open on one side?
Return ends are added so the nosing turns the corner at the exposed side. From the hall it reads as one finished piece.
How long will a staircase take?
A normal flight takes one to two days. We confirm the schedule when you book.
Is the work under warranty?
Labor has a one-year warranty. The wood carries the manufacturer coverage.
