Treads, Risers and Nosing

Derby stairs get a choice of four tread species: red oak, white oak, hickory or maple. Every tread we bring to Derby measures 1 inch thick by 11 1/2 inches deep, with a bull nose front and its own riser.

Tread Samples at Home

Tread samples ride in the estimator's truck. Set them against your floor at the foot of the stairs and the right wood is obvious.

Quiet, Solid Steps

Before a single tread is cut, any step that moves in a Derby stairwell gets screwed down solid. The installer then scribes each tread to fit, glues it and fastens it down.

One Year Stair Warranty

Licensed, insured and NWFA certified crews build every staircase and the labor is warrantied for one full year. Mistakes are ours to fix.

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

A steep two family stair and a wide Victorian flight near Birmingham Green need different treads, risers and trim, and we help you choose.

Red Oak Treads

Warm stained red oak matches the older floors in the houses around Birmingham Green.

White Oak Treads

White oak shows a clean light grain in a hillside colonial with east facing windows.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory takes the grit tracked in off the river trail, and maple brightens a dark stairwell on Olivia Street.

Painted or Wood Risers

Near Birmingham Green, owners choose white painted risers or oak risers in the tread stain.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

An open stair in a remodeled Derby Neck home gets return ends that wrap each tread at the side.

Landing Treads

In the two families on Main Street, the landing tread sits flush with the second floor at the top.

What does one new step cost in Derby?

Each step is $60, covering the hardwood tread, riser, bull nose, stain to match your floor and the labor.

Will you pull the carpet off my stairs?

Yes. Carpet, pad, tack strips and staples all come out, and the removal price is set at the estimate.

Could you just refinish the oak treads already in my Derby house?

When the treads are sound, we hand sand and refinish them in Derby for $50 per step. Cracked or worn thin treads get replaced.

Do you offer oak risers to match?

Yes. Oak risers in the tread stain give a full wood look, while white painted risers add contrast.

Will new treads fix the squeaks in my two family?

Usually. Loose steps are screwed down first and each tread is fitted, glued and fastened to stay quiet under tenant traffic.

How do you finish a stair with an open side?

We fit a return piece to every open end in Derby, which carries the rounded nose around the side so no raw edge shows.

How soon can you start and how long will it take?

Unfinished tread jobs often begin the next day and finish in two. Factory finished treads have to be ordered in, which adds a few weeks to a Derby job.

Is the stair work guaranteed?

Yes. Labor is warrantied for a year and every crew member is licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
