Treads, Risers and Nosing

Pick red oak, white oak, hickory or maple. Each tread is 1 inch thick, 11 1/2 inches deep and comes with its own bull nose and riser.

Tread Samples at Home

Wood samples ride along with the estimator. Set a few beside the floor at the foot of the stairs and the right species stands out.

Quiet, Solid Steps

Loose treads get screwed tight first. Then each new tread is cut to the stringer, glued and fastened so it stops flexing.

One Year Stair Warranty

The crew is licensed, insured and NWFA certified, with a one-year labor warranty. If a step shifts, we come back and fix it.

Stair Installers in North Haven

We rebuild stairs in capes along Ridge Road, in split-levels and in older colonials. The old carpet leaves, wobbly steps get anchored, and new hardwood treads and risers are stained and set, usually within a day or two.

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

A three-step landing and a full flight to the second floor call for different things, so we help you choose wood, risers and trim.

Red Oak Treads

Stained red oak warms older hallway boards and ties into the floor at the landing.

White Oak Treads

White oak shows a clean, pale grain in a front hall that catches plenty of morning sun.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory takes hard use from kids and boots, while maple brightens a dim stairwell.

Painted or Wood Risers

Many owners go with painted white risers, and others choose oak risers stained to match the treads.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

Where one side of the flight is open, the tread ends are returned so the nosing wraps around the edge.

Landing Treads

At the top, the last tread is set flush with the second-floor boards so there is no ledge to trip on.

More Floor Work in North Haven

Most calls start with one wobbly step, and from there we can refinish the oak, replace boards, or lay hardwood, vinyl plank or laminate through the house.

What does a new hardwood step cost in North Haven?

Each step is $60, covering tread, riser, bull nose, matching stain and labor.

Do you pull the old carpet?

Yes. Carpet, pad, tack strips and staples all come out, and the removal is priced on site.

Which wood is best for treads?

Red oak, white oak, hickory and maple are in stock. Lay the samples next to your floor and the choice usually settles itself.

How many days does a staircase take?

A straight flight is usually one or two days. Winders and open stairs can take longer.

Can my existing stairs be refinished instead?

Yes, at $50 per step, hand brushed. Risers are quoted separately.

Do you do laminate stairs?

Yes, laminate treads run $50 per step in labor, and the nosing is cut from the same plank.

Will the treads match my floor?

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

What does the warranty cover?

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