Tread Samples at Home
The estimator carries tread samples. Hold them against the floor at the foot of your stairs and the right wood becomes obvious.

Quiet, Solid Steps
Loose steps get screwed down first. Then the installer scribes each new tread to the wall, glues it and fastens it for good.

/ OUR SERVICES
Stair Installers in Cheshire
We rebuild stairs in Highland Avenue colonials, Waterbury Road splits, Route 10 ranches and capes by Mixville Pond. Carpet is torn out, loose steps are anchored and new hardwood treads and risers go in, often inside a day. All staining happens in the house.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
A narrow split level flight and a wide colonial staircase need different things, so we help you pick wood, risers and trim.
Red Oak Treads
Warm stained red oak suits older floors in capes and colonials.
White Oak Treads
White oak shows a pale, clean grain in a hallway with plenty of daylight.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Hickory hides mudroom wear, and maple lifts a dark stairwell in a split level.
Painted or Wood Risers
Painted white risers or stained oak ones, matched to the treads, are the two common choices.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
On an open-sided stair, each tread gets a return end that turns the nosing around the exposed edge.
Landing Treads
The landing tread at the head of the stairs is leveled flush with the upstairs hall.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat will one new oak step cost me in Cheshire?
Each step is $60, covering the tread, riser, bull nose, stain to match your floor and labor.
Will you remove the carpet on my stairs?
Yes. Carpet, pad, tack strips and staples all come out, and the removal price is confirmed on site.
Can my existing treads just be refinished?
Solid oak treads in good shape can skip replacement: hand sanding and refinishing is $50 a step. Cracked or thin treads are replaced instead.
Can I get oak risers to match the treads?
Yes. Risers come stained in the tread color, or painted white if you want contrast.
Will new treads stop the squeaks?
Usually. We anchor the stringers and fasten each tread with glue and screws, which quiets most noise.
How is an open-sided stair finished?
The tread gets a return end, which wraps the nosing around the exposed side for a clean edge.
How fast can a crew start, and for how long?
Often the next day, and most staircases are finished inside one day. Larger flights with landings may take a bit longer.
Is there a warranty on the work?
Labor carries one year from Brazil Floors, and the materials carry the manufacturer warranty.
