Brazil Floors carpenters, licensed, insured and NWFA certified, build every stair in Newington. Nobody from another firm works on them.
Treads are measured one at a time, since stairs in older houses are seldom square. Each piece is cut for its own step.
Each tread and riser has a year of labor warranty starting the day the stairs reopen, and the oak itself carries the maker's warranty.



Each new oak step in Newington is $60, with tread, riser, nosing, stain and labor included. Sanding an existing stair or capping it with laminate is $50 a step.
