Treads, Risers and Nosing
Show us the entire staircase, including exposed ends and landings. The existing construction and surface condition help establish what the proposed work can include.

Compare tread samples beside the landing and adjoining floor at home. Review grain, color and sheen together, especially when the retained wood is a different species.
Movement or squeaks need assessment before a new tread surface is fitted. We review the existing steps and explain any support or repair work identified for the installation.
Stair installation labor has one-year workmanship coverage under the written agreement. Keep the material information and finish-care instructions with the project records.



Only if it is specified. Show the landing during the visit and ask for its materials, preparation and finish to be included in the written scope.
We assess the individual steps and their construction. Selective replacement may be possible, but differences in wood and finish should be discussed first.
The newly exposed surface may reveal fastener marks, unsuitable boards or movement. Any resulting changes to the scope should be reviewed before further work.
A new surface should not be assumed to solve movement underneath. The cause needs assessment before the installation approach is agreed.
Samples can help relate the surfaces, but species, grain and age may prevent an identical result. Decide after viewing the materials together.
No. Confirm exactly which components are included. Treads, risers, landings and any railing work should be identified separately.
Use depends on the work stage and the coating instructions. Arrange essential access with the project plan rather than assuming a fixed reopening time.
Step dimensions, exposed sides, landings, removal, repairs and the selected finish all influence the scope. A photograph helps prepare for the measuring visit.
