Treads, Risers and Nosing
Identify treads and risers included in the estimate. Ask how the layout will meet the surrounding rooms. Show the estimator the edge that matters most.
Identify treads and risers included in the estimate. Ask how the layout will meet the surrounding rooms. Show the estimator the edge that matters most.
Check whether the rail and existing trim can stay. Check which adjoining surfaces are staying. Confirm the point where the new work stops.
Measure the landing levels before choosing nose thickness. An estimate can identify floor work outside the main room. Describe what you intend to keep in the space.
Keep stair work and adjacent floor work clear in the written quote. The stair scope separates replacement parts from the finish and any support work.



Start with the treads, risers and retained railing. Take a side view that shows the tread ends and the trim you plan to retain.
Point out the transition near the exterior entry in the photos you send. Take a side view that shows the tread ends and the trim you plan to retain.
Ask how the installer will handle the tread profile and landing heights. The stair scope separates replacement parts from the finish and any support work.
Yes, if the scope accounts for where the surfaces meet. Measure the connection before deciding which work goes first.
Show the attachment points during the estimate. We can identify how the retained rail meets the proposed work.
The landing height affects how the new tread and the hall floor meet. Review both levels before selecting material.
Samples should be tested on both wood surfaces. Different species or repairs can take the same color differently.
Inspect its depth, edges and support. Wear limited to the surface can call for a different approach than a loose or split piece.
