Treads, Risers and Nosing

Pick red oak, white oak, hickory or maple. Every tread is 1 inch thick and 11 1/2 inches deep, with a bull nose and a riser.

Tread Samples at Home

The estimator carries tread samples in the truck. Hold one against the floor at the foot of the stairs and the right wood is clear.

Quiet, Solid Steps

Steps that rock are screwed down first. Then each new tread is scribed to the walls, glued and fastened to stop squeaks.

One Year Stair Warranty

A licensed, insured and NWFA certified crew builds each staircase, and a full year of labor warranty comes with it.

Stair Installers in Framingham

We rebuild stairs in Nobscot Hill colonials, Farm Pond capes, MetroWest multi-family houses and ranches with finished basements near Danforth's Farms. Carpet is pulled, loose steps are anchored and new oak treads and risers go in, often within a day or two. All staining is done indoors.

/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

A tight cape stair and a wide colonial flight need different wood and trim, so we walk through the choices with you.

Red Oak Treads

Warm stained red oak blends with the older floors in capes near Farm Pond.

White Oak Treads

White oak has a light, tidy grain that works in a stairwell with plenty of sun.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory stands up to heavy use, and maple brightens a darker stairwell.

Painted or Wood Risers

Some owners paint risers white, and others stain them to match the treads.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

An open stair gets a return that wraps the nosing around the exposed tread end.

Landing Treads

The landing tread at the top is set level with the second-floor boards.

How much is one new hardwood step in Framingham?

$60 per step, with the tread, riser, bull nose, a stain matched to your floor and the labor all in.

Do you take carpet off the stairs?

Yes. Carpet goes first, and the underlying pad, strips and staples are cleared with it. The removal price is set at the visit.

Can the treads I have be refinished?

If the oak is sound, hand sanding and refinishing is $50 per step. Cracked or thin treads are replaced.

Should the risers be oak as well?

They can be. Oak risers stained like the treads look like solid wood, while white paint adds contrast.

Will new treads stop the squeaking?

Most of the time. We tighten any loose step first, then glue and fasten every new tread.

What about a stair that is open on one side?

The exposed end gets a return, so the nosing wraps around and the tread looks complete.

How long will the work last?

Unfinished treads can start next day and wrap in about two. Prefinished treads often take weeks to arrive.

Is there a warranty on stairs?

Yes, one year on labor, from a licensed, insured, NWFA certified crew.
