Tread Samples at Home
Espresso on white risers, clear oak from bottom to top, or light treads climbing out of a marble foyer: our crew stains a scrap piece so you can approve the color in person.

Quiet, Solid Steps
We measure each step by itself, since a hundred-plus years of settling has pulled many High Street stairways out of square. Then every tread is scribed for a snug fit.

One Year Stair Warranty
Should a Northbridge tread of ours work loose within a year, our labor warranty fixes it. The wood has its maker's warranty, and NWFA certified staff do it all.
/ OUR SERVICES
Northbridge Staircase Crew
Northbridge stairs get plenty of use: skates and cleats tossed on the bottom step, a dog racing up after a hike to Lookout Rock, laundry baskets going up and down all week. We've rebuilt staircases in mill duplexes off Church Street and in newer Riverdale homes, fitting treads one by one and easing each nosing by hand.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
Guests usually see the staircase first when they come through the door. Choose a look that ties the downstairs and upstairs floors together.
Red Oak Treads
Espresso treads over risers painted bright white give a Whitinsville front hall classic style.
White Oak Treads
Clear finish over both treads and risers lets bold oak grain welcome you at the door.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Pale oak steps that rise from a marble-tiled entry keep a newer Northbridge home feeling airy.
Painted or Wood Risers
A rounded bullnose on each tread softens the stair's profile and feels kinder underfoot.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
Using the hallway's stain on the treads makes the staircase and landing read as one floor.
Landing Treads
A satin sheen on well-used stairs disguises sneaker marks and dog claw scratches far better than gloss.

Once the staircase is redone, the upstairs hall may start to look its age. Northbridge clients also bring us in for hardwood, LVP or laminate, refinishing and floor repairs.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much is one new oak stair tread in Northbridge?
Northbridge stair treads in new oak are $60 each, set in place and stained in whichever shade you want. Keeping the treads you have is an option too, and a refinish is $50 a step with sanding and finish included.
Our Whitinsville stairs are carpeted. Can that come up?
Yes. Once the carpet, padding and staples are gone, we check the wood underneath. Some oak only needs refinishing; other times new treads are the better call.
Should our risers be painted or stained?
Lots of Northbridge homeowners paint risers white so the treads stand out, and others stain them to match. We bring examples of each to your estimate.
Our Whitinsville stairs are the only way up. Is that a problem?
Not at all. The job takes a day or two while stain and finish set, and we can do alternating steps so everyone still gets to bed upstairs.
Can new treads blend with our existing hardwood?
Yes. We test stains on scrap oak until one blends with the hall upstairs and the entry downstairs, and we begin only after you approve it.
Who does the stair work?
Our own employees, every one NWFA certified, and the company holds a license and full insurance. Northbridge staircases are never handed off to subcontractors.
Do you guarantee stair tread work?
Yes. If a tread we install loosens in the first year, we'll return and secure it, because our labor is under warranty. The tread manufacturer separately covers the wood.
How is a Northbridge stair job paid?
Treads are paid for when they arrive, and labor once our crew begins on your stairs. No big deposit weeks ahead, and the quoted per-step price stays fixed.
