Treads, Risers and Nosing

Treads come in red oak, white oak, hickory and maple, each 1 inch thick and 11 1/2 inches deep, with a bull nose and a matching riser.

Tread Samples at Home

Sample treads travel with our estimator. Set a few against the hall floor and you will know which species belongs, usually in under a minute.

Quiet, Solid Steps

A stair that wobbles gets tightened first. Then each new tread is cut to the stringer, glued and fastened so it will not creak.

One Year Stair Warranty

Everyone on the stair crew is licensed, insured and NWFA certified. Labor has a one-year warranty, and a step that shifts gets fixed at no cost.

Stair Installers in New Britain

We rebuild stairs in triple-deckers, two-family houses off Broad Street and older bungalows. Old carpet comes up, wobbly stringers get anchored, and oak treads and risers are fitted, frequently within a single day. Staining is done on site.

/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

A basement stair and a three-story flight need different woods, risers and trim, so we walk you through the choices.

Red Oak Treads

Stained red oak treads warm up an upstairs hallway full of older boards and trim.

White Oak Treads

White oak keeps a clean, pale grain in a stairwell that gets little daylight.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory is the tough one for heavy daily traffic, while maple lightens a narrow stairwell.

Painted or Wood Risers

Many owners near Walnut Hill Park pick painted white risers, though stained oak risers also look right.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

On an open stair we return the tread ends, which carries the nosing around the corner with no raw edge showing.

Landing Treads

The top tread is set flush with the upstairs boards so there is no lip to trip on.

How much is a new hardwood step in New Britain?

A step is $60, which pays for the tread, riser, bull nose, matching stain and installation.

Do you remove old stair carpet?

Yes, along with the pad, tack strips and staples, at a price set on site.

Which wood should I choose for treads?

Stock includes red oak, white oak, hickory and maple. Hold a sample against your floor and the choice is quick.

How long do stairs take?

A straight flight is normally done in a day or two. Winders and open stairs take longer.

Can you refinish stairs I already have?

Yes. Each existing step is $50, brushed by hand, and risers are priced separately.

What about laminate stairs?

Laminate treads are $50 per step in labor, each with a nose to match.

Will the new treads match my floor?

We stain them to your floor and show samples first, so any mismatch is caught before color goes on.

What does the warranty cover?

Labor has one year from Brazil Floors, and the wood carries the manufacturer's warranty. Labor is due when the crew arrives.
