/ OUR SERVICES
Stair Installers in Chester
We redo stairs in Main Street houses, Kelsey Hill farmhouses, Pratt Street cottages and Warsaw Street ranches. Carpet comes out, loose steps are anchored, and new oak treads with risers go in, often inside a day. All staining is done indoors.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
A short cottage flight and a long farmhouse staircase need different things, so we help you choose the wood, risers and trim.
Red Oak Treads
Red oak stained warm fits older Chester floors and trim.
White Oak Treads
White oak gives a pale grain in a hall with big windows.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Hickory stands up to mud and boots, and maple brightens a dark stairwell.
Painted or Wood Risers
Risers go either painted white or in oak stained to the tread color.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
An open side gets return ends so each tread wraps around the edge.
Landing Treads
The tread at the top of the flight ends flush with the second floor.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much does one new hardwood step cost in Chester?
One step is $60, which covers the tread, riser, bull nose, stain matched to your floor and installation.
Do you take the carpet off my stairs?
We do. Carpet, padding, tack strips and staples all leave, and the removal fee is settled on site.
Can I just refinish the treads I have?
If the oak is sound, hand sanding and refinishing costs $50 a step. Thin or cracked treads are replaced.
Can risers match my treads?
They can. We stain oak risers in the tread color or paint them white for contrast.
Will the squeaks stop?
In most cases. We fasten stringers and treads with glue and screws, which settles the noise.
How is the open side of a stair handled?
The tread gets a return end that carries the nosing around the exposed edge.
When can you start and how long does it take?
Often the next day, with a typical staircase done in one day. Big flights with landings take a little more.
Does the work carry a warranty?
Yes, one year on labor from Brazil Floors, plus the manufacturer warranty on materials.
