Bring the samples right to the stairs during the estimate and set each wood beside your floor until one looks right in your own light.
Before new wood goes down, loose steps are screwed tight. Then every tread is cut to fit the walls, glued and fastened, which ends the creaks.
We send licensed, insured and NWFA certified crews, and stair labor carries a one year warranty. Anything that shifts, we come back and fix.

We use return ends, and the exposed side of every tread ends up rounded and finished, just like the front edge.

Yes. Every staircase we install comes with one year on labor, and all our crews are licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
