Bring the light from your front hall into the choice. We carry tread samples to the estimate and hold them up to your old floors.
Old houses settle, so any wobbly step is made solid first. Our installer then scribes every tread to the plaster, glues it and screws it.
Licensed, insured and NWFA certified crews handle each flight, and we guarantee our stair labor a full year. If anything shifts, we return.

It does. Carpet, pad, tack strips and each staple get pulled, and the price for that goes on the written estimate.

Usually. Loose steps get screwed to the stringers first, and only then do we scribe, glue and fasten new treads.
We add return ends, which bend the rounded nose around every open end so the side of the flight looks done.
We can be there as soon as tomorrow and wrap up in a day or two. Treads bought prefinished are special ordered for weeks.
Yes. You get one year of warranty on the stair labor, from crews that are licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
