Check whether the rail and existing wood trim can stay. Show where the new flooring will stop. Verify which work is included in the quote.
In City of Kingston, measure the landing levels before choosing nose thickness. List the doors that need to open during work. Show where the new flooring will stop.
Keep stair work and adjacent flooring work clear in the written quote. Show where the new flooring will stop. Set aside an example of the existing material.



Include the retained rail in your photos and show where the existing work meets the new scope. Discuss the landing and tread profile before choosing the material or finish.
Check building or property access and share any photos of the first and last rises. Let us know which areas need to remain usable while the work is under way.
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.
Discuss who needs access before setting the schedule. Some stages require keeping people away from the work area.
Check how the tread end and nose meet the stringer or trim. Choose the return detail as part of the proposal.
