Tread samples ride in the estimator's truck. Hold one against your entry floor at the base of the stairs and the right wood shows itself.

Quiet, Solid Steps
Any wobbly step is screwed down hard before new wood arrives. Then our installer fits each tread tight to the stringer, glues it and fastens it.

/ OUR SERVICES
Stair Installers in Old Lyme
We rebuild stairs in Lyme Street colonials, Neck Road cottages, Hartford Avenue homes and shore houses near Black Hall Pond. Carpet comes up, loose steps get anchored and fresh hardwood treads and risers are installed, frequently in a single day. Staining is done indoors.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
A narrow cottage stair and a broad colonial flight call for different answers, so we guide you on wood, risers and trim.
Red Oak Treads
Warm stained red oak suits the older floors in the houses along Lyme Street.
White Oak Treads
White oak shows a light, clean grain in a shore house with strong morning sun.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Hickory resists sandy sneakers, and maple lightens a dark stairwell in a Blood Street cape.
Painted or Wood Risers
Near Rogers Lake, owners choose white painted risers or oak ones in the tread stain.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
An open stair in a Neck Road cottage gets return ends that round each tread at the side.
Landing Treads
In older Old Lyme houses, the top tread is set level with the second floor boards.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much is one new hardwood step in Old Lyme?
One step is $60, covering the hardwood tread, riser, bull nose, stain matched to your floor and the labor.
Do you remove old carpet from stairs?
Yes. Carpet, pad, tack strips and staples all come off your Old Lyme stairs, and the price for that is set on site at the free visit.
Should I replace my treads or refinish them?
Solid oak steps are hand sanded and refinished at $50 a step. Cracked or worn thin treads are replaced.
Can the risers match the treads?
Yes. Risers stained like the treads give a full wood look, and white painted risers give a crisp contrast.
Will new treads stop the squeaks?
Mostly. Loose steps are fastened first, and every new tread is fitted, glued and secured so it stays quiet.
How is an open sided stair finished?
On any exposed end we add a return, which wraps the rounded nose around the side of the tread.
How long does a stair project take?
Unfinished stair work often starts the next day and wraps up in about two. Prefinished treads have to be ordered, so they take longer.
Is there a warranty on stairs?
Yes. Stair labor has a one year warranty, and the Old Lyme crew is licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
