Tread samples arrive in the estimator's vehicle. Hold one against the floor at the bottom step and the right wood becomes obvious.

/ OUR SERVICES
Stair Installers in Brookline
We rebuild stairs in Coolidge Corner townhouses, Victorians near the Riverway, two-families off Route 9 and houses by Olmsted Park. We pull the carpet, secure any loose steps and fit oak treads with new risers, usually within two days. All staining happens in the house.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
A narrow rear stair in a two-family is nothing like a grand front staircase, so we help you choose wood, risers and trim for each.
Red Oak Treads
Red oak, stained warm, goes well with the older floors in prewar apartments.
White Oak Treads
White oak brings a pale, even grain to an entry that gets little sun.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Hickory stands up to heavy foot traffic, while maple lifts a dim stairwell.
Painted or Wood Risers
Plenty of owners paint the risers white and stain the treads, giving the flight clean lines.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
An open side receives return ends, so the nosing wraps the edge and hides raw wood.
Landing Treads
The landing tread is cut so that it sits level with the upper floor.

It is $60 per step. The tread, riser, nosing, matching stain and labor are all part of it.
Do you remove stair carpet?
Yes. Carpet, pad, tack strips and staples are pulled, and the removal price is set at the visit.
Can the treads I have be refinished?
If the oak is sound, hand sanding and refinishing are $50 per step. Cracked or worn-thin treads are replaced.
Can the risers be oak too?
Yes. Oak risers in the tread stain give an all-wood stair, while white paint gives contrast.
Will my stairs stop creaking?
Mostly. We tighten the loose steps first, then glue and fasten each new tread to keep it silent.
How do you finish a stair open on one side?
A return end goes on each exposed side so the nosing wraps around and the tread looks complete.
How long does it take?
Prefinished treads can take weeks to arrive, but site-finished jobs often start the next day and finish in about two.
Is the stair work warrantied?
Yes, twelve months on labor, from a crew with licenses, insurance and NWFA certification.
