Tread Samples at Home
Sample treads arrive with the estimator. Set them on the landing floor and the right color usually picks itself.

Quiet, Solid Steps
Wobbly treads are screwed down first. Each new tread then gets scribed to the stringer, glued and fastened, which kills the creak.

One Year Stair Warranty
Our staircase crew is licensed, insured and NWFA certified, and labor is warranted for a year. A step that works loose is ours to fix.
/ OUR SERVICES
Stair Installers in New Haven
We rebuild stairs in Victorians near Hillhouse Avenue, three-families and old rowhouses. Carpet comes off, loose treads are anchored, and new hardwood treads and risers are stained and installed, often in one or two days.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
A three-step entry and a tall flight to the third floor ask different things, so we help pick wood, risers and trim.
Red Oak Treads
Stained red oak warms older hall boards and carries into the landing.
White Oak Treads
White oak keeps a clean, light grain in a front hall that catches morning sun.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Hickory shrugs off kids and boots, and maple lifts the mood of a dim stairwell.
Painted or Wood Risers
Owners often paint risers white, while others stain oak risers to match the treads.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
Where one side of the flight is open, the tread ends are wrapped so the nosing continues around the corner.
Landing Treads
The top tread lands flush with the second-floor boards, so nothing catches a toe.

Hardwood Floor Work in New Haven

Is the old carpet removed?
Yes. Carpet, padding, tack strips and staples are all taken out, and the removal price is set on site.
What wood should I choose for the treads?
Red oak, white oak, hickory and maple are stocked. Compare the samples against your floor and the pick becomes obvious.
How many days does a flight take?
A straight flight takes one or two days. Winders and open stairs can need extra time.

Will the stain match my existing floor?
Treads are stained to your floor, and we show samples first so a mismatch is caught before any color goes on.
What does the warranty include?
Brazil Floors warrants labor for one year, and the wood carries the manufacturer's warranty. Labor is paid when the crew shows up.
