/ OUR SERVICES
Stair Installers on Nantucket
We rebuild stairs in town houses, 'Sconset cottages and homes near Surfside. Carpet comes up, loose steps are anchored and hardwood treads go in with new risers, often within a day. All staining is done inside the house.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
A tight cottage staircase and a wide entry flight need different woods, risers and trim, and we help you pick.
Red Oak Treads
Warm stained red oak complements older floors in town.
White Oak Treads
White oak has a light, clean grain that brightens a stairwell.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Hickory hides scuffs from sandy feet, and maple lifts a dim stairwell.
Painted or Wood Risers
In older houses, many owners paint risers white or stain them like the tread.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
An open-sided stair gets return ends that round each tread at the side.
Landing Treads
The top tread is set level with the upstairs floor so nothing catches a toe.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does one hardwood step cost on Nantucket?
It is $60 a step, with tread, riser, nosing, matching stain and labor in the price.
Do you remove the stair carpet?
Yes. Carpet, pad, tack strips and staples come out, and the removal price is agreed at the visit.
Can my present treads be refinished?
If the oak is sound, hand sanding and a new finish cost $50 per step. Treads that are cracked or worn thin come out.
Can risers be oak rather than painted?
Yes. Stained oak risers give an all wood look, and white paint gives contrast.
Will new treads stop the squeaks?
In most cases. A loose step is secured first, and every new tread is bonded and fastened.
How are open stairs finished?
A return on each exposed end wraps the rounded nosing so the step looks finished.
How does the crew reach the island?
Brazil Floors coordinates the ferry crossing for crew and material, so you do not book anything yourself.
Is there a warranty on stairs?
Yes, a full year on labor, with installers who are licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
