Tread Samples at Home
The estimator keeps tread samples in the truck for every visit. Lay them next to your floor at the foot of the stairs and the right species is obvious.

Quiet, Solid Steps
Before any new wood arrives, wobbly steps are screwed down to the stringers. Each tread is then traced to the opening, glued and nailed home.

/ OUR SERVICES
Stair Installers in Killingworth
We rebuild stairs in Killingworth colonials on North Chestnut Hill, capes near the green and farmhouses on Route 81. Carpet comes off, loose steps are anchored, and new risers with hardwood treads go in, often inside one day. All staining is done indoors.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
A straight cape stair and a turning colonial flight need different parts, so we help you pick wood, risers and trim.
Red Oak Treads
Warm stained red oak suits the older floors in the farmhouses along Route 81.
White Oak Treads
White oak shows a clean pale grain in a colonial on North Chestnut Hill with east light.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Hickory handles trail grit from Chatfield Hollow, and maple brightens a dark stair in a Route 80 ranch.
Painted or Wood Risers
Near the green, owners choose white painted risers or oak risers in the same stain.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
An open stair in a newer home off Route 80 gets return ends that wrap each tread at the side.
Landing Treads
In the colonials on North Chestnut Hill, the landing tread sits level with the upstairs floor.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much is one new hardwood step in Killingworth?
Every step is $60, and the hardwood tread, riser, bull nose, matching stain and labor are all inside that. Nosing is never billed separately.
Will you remove the carpet from my stairs?
Yes, the carpet goes, and so do the pad, the tack strips and each staple left behind. What that costs gets settled during the free visit.
Are my current oak treads good enough to refinish instead?
If the wood is sound, yes, for $50 per step. A tread that has split or cupped is better swapped for new at $60.
Can the risers be oak to match the treads?
They can, stained the same color as the treads. Many Killingworth colonials go with white painted risers instead.
Will new treads stop the squeaking?
Yes, because loose steps are screwed tight to the stringers before the new treads are glued and fastened. The noise goes away with the old wood.
How is an open sided stair finished?
With return ends, a rounded nosing that wraps the exposed side of each tread. It reads as one finished piece.
When can the stair crew start in Killingworth, and how many days?
Usually within a few days of the estimate, and most flights are finished in one day. Stain dries overnight before full use.
Is the stair work warrantied?
Yes, a one year warranty on our labor. The people building it are licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
