Treads, Risers and Nosing
There are four tread woods to choose from: red oak, white oak, hickory and maple. Each one is a full 1 inch thick and 11 1/2 inches deep, finished with a bull nose and paired to a riser.

Tread samples come up the hill in the estimator's truck. Set a sample on the floor at the foot of your Colebrook stairs and the match jumps out.
Wobbly steps are screwed tight to the stringers before anything else happens. After that, each tread is scribed to the skirt, bedded in adhesive and fastened so it never shifts.
Licensed, insured and NWFA certified crews handle each Colebrook staircase, and the labor is warrantied for one full year. We fix any slips.



Each step is $60, the hardwood tread, riser, bull nose, a stain to match your floor and labor all in that figure. Species does not change the price.
Yes. We tear out carpet and pad and pull the tack strips and staples, then work out the removal cost at the free visit.
When the oak is still solid, we hand sand and refinish each step for $50. Cracked or thin treads are better replaced at $60.
Yes. Oak risers in your tread stain give an all wood look, while white paint gives a crisp contrast against the oak.
For most Colebrook stairs, yes. Shaky steps are screwed down first, and each new tread gets fitted, glued and fastened so it cannot shift.
We add a return to each exposed end, so the rounded nose follows the side and every tread looks finished from the room.
Prefinished treads ship on order and take weeks, but unfinished jobs often begin the day after the estimate. Most staircases take a day or two.
Yes. Our stair labor is under warranty for a year, and the crews are licensed, insured and NWFA certified employees.
