Treads, Risers and Nosing

We carry red oak, white oak, hickory and maple, each tread 1 inch thick and 11 1/2 inches front to back, bull nosed, with a new riser.

Tread Samples at Home

A stack of tread samples comes along to the estimate. Lay them on the bottom stair next to your hall floor and pick what looks right.

Quiet, Solid Steps

Old city stairs move, so loose steps get screwed down hard first. Next, every new tread is scribed to the stringer, glued and nailed.

One Year Stair Warranty

All crews are licensed, insured and NWFA certified, and every staircase gets a year of labor guarantee. A step comes loose, we return.

/ OUR SERVICES

Stair Installers in Providence

We build stairs in Fox Point cottages, College Hill Victorians, Federal Hill multi family houses and Elmhurst colonials. Carpet is ripped up, sagging steps are pulled tight and hardwood treads over new risers are installed, often by the next morning. We stain everything on site.

/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

A narrow back stair and a grand Victorian front flight are not the same job, and we help you choose wood, riser color and trim for each.

Red Oak Treads

Red oak holds a warm, honey stain and blends with old floors inside Fox Point cottages.

White Oak Treads

White oak gives a crisp, pale look to an Elmhurst colonial with lots of daylight.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory handles student traffic near College Hill, and maple brightens a Smith Hill hall.

Painted or Wood Risers

In Mount Pleasant, people go for painted white risers or oak risers in the same stain.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

An open flight in a West End Victorian gets return ends that round off each side of a tread.

Landing Treads

Up on Federal Hill, a landing tread meets the second floor, leaving the last step perfectly even.

What will new hardwood steps cost me in Providence?

New steps are $60 each. In that price: the hardwood tread, riser, bull nose, a stain matched to your floor and labor.

Will your crew rip up the stair carpet?

Yes. We peel off carpet and pad and pry up the tack strips and staples, then quote that removal on our visit.

Can old three decker treads be refinished?

Often. Solid oak in a three decker can be hand sanded with a new finish put on for $50 a step. Thin or cracked ones get replaced.

Can risers match the treads instead of white?

Yes. Oak risers can take on the tread color in stain, or go white, which looks sharp in a Victorian front hall.

Can new treads cure a creaking city staircase?

Almost always. Loose steps are screwed down hard, then every new tread goes on with a scribe, glue and nails.

How do you finish a stair open on one side?

Return ends are mitered onto each open end, so the bull nose runs around the corner for a clean look.

How soon could a crew get to my stairs?

Usually the next morning, and the job wraps within two days. If you choose prefinished treads, expect a wait of weeks.

Is your stair work warrantied?

Yes. A year of warranty comes with our labor, and every crew is licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
