Treads, Risers and Nosing

Four tread species are on offer: red oak, white oak, hickory and maple. Each tread is 1 inch thick by 11 1/2 inches deep, bull nosed, with its own riser.

Tread Samples at Home

Tread samples ride in the estimator's truck. Set them against your floor at the bottom step and the right species shows itself.

Quiet, Solid Steps

First job on any East Lyme stair is fastening every wobbly step back to its stringers with screws. Then each tread is scribed to the skirt, glued and fastened for good.

One Year Stair Warranty

Licensed, insured and NWFA certified installers build every East Lyme staircase, and we warranty the labor for one year.

Stair Installers in East Lyme

We rebuild stairs in Flanders ranches, Niantic cottages, colonials off Society Road and houses near Flanders Four Corners. Carpet comes up, loose steps get anchored, and new risers and hardwood treads go in, often within a day. Stain is applied on site.

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

A short cottage stair at Crescent Beach and a turning flight in a Society Road colonial need different parts, so we help you choose wood, risers and trim.

Red Oak Treads

Red oak with a warm stain matches the original floors in the older farmhouses on Society Road.

White Oak Treads

White oak shows a clean, pale grain in a Giants Neck cottage full of morning light.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory shrugs off sand from Crescent Beach, and maple brightens a dark stairwell in a Flanders ranch.

Painted or Wood Risers

Niantic owners choose white painted risers or oak risers in the tread stain.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

An open sided stair near Flanders Four Corners gets return ends so each tread finishes round at the side.

Landing Treads

In the cottages at Black Point, the landing tread sits flush with the upper floor.

How much is one new hardwood step in East Lyme?

Each step is $60 in East Lyme. That buys the hardwood tread, riser, bull nose, stain matched to your floor and the labor.

Will you take the carpet off the stairs?

Yes. We strip the carpet, the pad, the tack strips and every staple, and the estimator writes the removal cost into your quote.

Can my existing treads just be refinished?

Sound oak treads can be hand sanded and refinished for $50 per step rather than replaced. Cracked or worn thin treads get swapped.

Can I have oak risers too?

Yes. Oak risers in the tread stain give an all wood staircase, while white paint gives contrast.

Will new treads stop the squeaks in my Flanders ranch?

Almost always. Wobbly steps get screwed tight before the new treads, which are then glued and nailed so nothing moves.

How do you finish an open sided stair?

A return is milled onto each exposed end so the bull nose wraps the side and the tread looks complete.

When can the stair work start, and how many days should I plan for?

Unfinished treads usually let us start the day after the estimate and finish within two days. If you want prefinished treads, they are a special order and push the start back a few weeks.

Is there a warranty on the stairs?

Yes. Our stair labor carries a one year warranty, and the installers are licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
