Quiet, Solid Steps
Any loose step is screwed down before new wood arrives. Our installer then scribes each tread against the stringer, glues it and fastens it for good.

/ OUR SERVICES
Stair Installers in Salem
We rebuild stairs in Four Corners colonials, Gardner Lake cottages, Buckley Hill Road capes and homes off Route 85. Carpet is lifted, loose steps get anchored and new hardwood treads and risers go in, often within a day. Staining happens inside.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
A steep cottage stair and a wide colonial flight call for different choices, so we guide you on wood, risers and trim.
Red Oak Treads
Warm stained red oak suits the older floors in colonials around Four Corners.
White Oak Treads
White oak shows a clean pale grain in a lake house flooded with morning light.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Hickory shrugs off wet sneakers, and maple lightens a dark stairwell in a Buckley Hill Road cape.
Painted or Wood Risers
On Horse Pond Road, owners choose white painted risers or oak ones in the tread stain.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
An open stair in a lake cottage gets return ends that round each tread at the side.
Landing Treads
In older Salem houses, the top tread is set level with the second floor boards.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much does one new hardwood step cost in Salem?
One step is $60 and includes the hardwood tread, riser, bull nose, stain matched to your floor and the labor.
Do you remove the old stair carpet in Salem homes?
Yes. Carpet, pad, tack strips and staples all come off, and the removal price is agreed at the free visit.
Do worn treads need replacing or can they be refinished?
Solid oak can be hand sanded and refinished at $50 a step. Cracked or thin treads are replaced.
Can the risers be oak instead of painted?
Yes. Oak risers in the tread stain give a full wood look, and painted white risers give a sharp contrast.
Will the squeaks stop with new treads?
Usually. Loose steps are fastened first, then each new tread is fitted, glued and secured so it stays quiet.
How is an open sided stair finished?
A return goes on each exposed end so the rounded nose wraps around the side of the tread.
How long will the stairs take?
Unfinished jobs often start the next day and finish in about two. Prefinished treads are ordered specially and take longer.
Is there a warranty on stair work?
Yes. Stair labor has a one year warranty, and the Salem crew is licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
