Treads, Risers and Nosing

Four woods are available for treads, red oak, white oak, hickory and maple, all 1 inch thick and 11 1/2 inches deep, with a rounded front edge and a riser.

Tread Samples at Home

Samples of the tread woods come in the truck. Place one beside your floor at the base of the staircase and the best match is clear.

Quiet, Solid Steps

Wobbly steps get tightened with screws before any other work. After that each new tread is cut to the wall line, glued and fixed in place.

One Year Stair Warranty

Stairs are built by licensed, insured, NWFA certified installers, and our labor is warrantied for a full year.

Stair Installers in Bristol

We rebuild stairs in Federal Hill Victorians, Forestville two families, ranches on Chippens Hill and capes near Cedar Lake. Carpet is torn up, loose treads are secured and new risers and hardwood treads are fitted, usually inside a day. The staining happens in your house.

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

A narrow stair in a two family and a wide front flight in a Victorian need different handling, so we help choose the wood, the risers and the trim.

Red Oak Treads

Warm red oak with stain matches the older wood floors in many Bristol capes.

White Oak Treads

White oak has a light, clean grain that works in a front hall full of morning sun.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory resists salt and slush tracked in from the street, and maple brightens a dim stairwell in a Forestville flat.

Painted or Wood Risers

Many Federal Hill owners choose white painted risers, though some prefer oak risers stained like the treads.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

An open stair side gets a return end so the rounded nose carries around the edge of each tread.

Landing Treads

The tread at the top is trimmed level with the second floor.

How much is one new hardwood step in Bristol?

A step is $60, which includes the tread, riser, bull nose, stain and installation.

Will the old carpet come off my stairs?

Yes. Carpet, pad, tack strips and staples are removed, with the cost set at your estimate.

Can existing treads be refinished?

Treads of sound oak can be sanded by hand and refinished at $50 per step.

Can I have oak risers that match?

Yes, risers stained like the treads look like solid wood, and painted ones add contrast.

Do new treads end the creaks?

Usually. Loose steps are screwed down before new wood is placed.

What happens on a stair with an open side?

Each exposed end gets a return, and the nose wraps around the tread.

How quickly can you start, and how long does it last?

Unfinished treads can be cut, fitted and stained within about a day, while prefinished treads may need ordering. We tell you which at the estimate.

Do stair jobs carry a warranty?

They do, one year on labor, and the maker backs the wood. You pay labor when the crew arrives and material when it is delivered.
