Treads, Risers and Nosing
Every tread comes with a bullnose front edge in hickory, maple, or red or white oak, and we tune the stain so the staircase sits naturally between both floors.

/ OUR SERVICES
Stair Tread Installers in Lexington
Some staircases near Lexington Centre rise in one straight run, others around Munroe Hill turn at a landing halfway up. We measure every riser, cut each tread for its particular opening and secure it with adhesive and nails, so the stairs stay solid and quiet when backpacks thump down toward Jonas Clarke Middle School.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
Every stairway has its own quirks. Before the first cut, we sit down with you and settle the wood species, the riser color, and any open side trim.
Red Oak Treads
Red oak accepts color predictably, so new steps blend with the narrow strip hardwood in many Meriam Hill homes.
White Oak Treads
White oak's tight, straight grain gives a foyer near Four Corners a crisp, modern look.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Hickory's busy grain disguises scuffs, and maple's pale, even surface brightens a stairwell close to the Old Reservoir.
Painted or Wood Risers
White painted risers are a classic look, or stained risers can create an all wood staircase near Belfry Hill.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
Where a stairway is open on one side, every tread end gets a mitered cap of matching oak so the cut edge never shows.
Landing Treads
A flush landing tread ties the top step into the upstairs floor, leaving no lip to trip on.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat's the price of a new oak tread?
Each new tread we provide and install is $60. Refinishing existing ones is $50 per step. Count your stairs and multiply for a quick ballpark.
Are my existing treads worth saving?
Peel back the carpet on the top step. Solid hardwood without big cracks can usually be refinished. Plywood or pressed wood treads should be replaced.
Will the stairs be blocked for long?
Not long. We often work in sections, and for refinishing we may sand and seal half the steps at a time, so the household still has a careful way up.
Can treads match the landing floor?
Yes. We mix stain samples on scrap pieces beside the landing, adjusting until it matches, then use that same mix on every tread.
Do new treads change the step height?
A little, so we measure carefully and adjust the top and bottom steps if needed. Even rises keep the staircase safe and comfortable.
What finish do you use on stairs?
A durable finish made for heavy traffic. Satin is popular on stairs because it hides scuffs and is less slippery than a high gloss.
When is payment due for stairs?
For new treads, you pay labor on day one when we begin. For refinishing, fifty percent comes at the start and fifty percent once the top step is sealed.
Is stair work under warranty?
Yes, one year on labor. If a tread we installed squeaks or shifts during that time, just let us know and we'll send someone over to set it right without any charge.
