Treads, Risers and Nosing

Red oak, white oak, hickory or maple, your call. Each tread measures 1 inch by 11 1/2 inches, with a bull nose lip over a new riser.

Tread Samples at Home

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.

Quiet, Solid Steps

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.

One Year Stair Warranty

Licensed, insured and NWFA certified crews handle each flight, and we guarantee our stair labor a full year. If anything shifts, we return.

/ OUR SERVICES

Stair Installers in Newport

Our crews build stairs in colonials on The Point, Fifth Ward family homes and Victorians off Kay Street. Tired carpet goes, any loose step is made steady and new hardwood treads go over fresh risers, sometimes the morning after you call. We stain right inside.

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

Steep colonial steps and wide Victorian flights call for different choices, and we help you settle the wood, the risers and the trim.

Red Oak Treads

Red oak takes on a rich brown and sits well beside the old boards of a house on The Point.

White Oak Treads

White oak lends a soft, pale grain to a restored Victorian on a street by Touro Park.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory shrugs off sand from Easton's Beach, and maple brightens a Fifth Ward stairwell.

Painted or Wood Risers

Off Thames Street, white painted risers look sharp, or oak risers can follow the treads.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

Open flights on Bellevue Avenue get return ends, so each tread shows a clean rounded edge.

Landing Treads

On a Kay Street landing, the last tread meets the upstairs hall at the very same height.

What will one new step cost me in Newport?

A new step is $60. Inside that number are the hardwood tread, a riser, the bull nose, stain matched to old floors and our labor.

Does the old carpet come off as part of this?

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

Are my old oak treads worth saving?

Often, yes. Solid oak treads take a sanding by hand and a new finish for $50 per step. Split ones get replaced.

Do you install stained wood risers?

We do. Oak risers stained to the treads look right in older houses, while white paint keeps a classic feel.

Can you quiet creaky stairs in an old house?

Usually. Loose steps get screwed to the stringers first, and only then do we scribe, glue and fasten new treads.

How do you trim a stair that is open on one side?

We add return ends, which bend the rounded nose around every open end so the side of the flight looks done.

How soon could you start, and for how many days?

We can be there as soon as tomorrow and wrap up in a day or two. Treads bought prefinished are special ordered for weeks.

Is your stair labor guaranteed?

Yes. You get one year of warranty on the stair labor, from crews that are licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
