Treads, Risers and Nosing

Pick red oak, white oak, hickory or maple for treads, each 1 inch thick and 11 1/2 inches deep, bull nosed and paired with a riser.

Tread Samples at Home

Tread samples ride along with the estimator. Hold one against the floor at the base of the stairs and the right wood is easy to see.

Quiet, Solid Steps

Any wobbly step is screwed tight before new wood goes in. The installer next fits each tread tight to the stringer, then glues and fastens it.

One Year Stair Warranty

Licensed, insured, NWFA certified crews build each Stonington staircase, and the labor carries a full year of warranty. A slip is fixed free.

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

A narrow Borough stair and a wide colonial flight need different answers, so we help you pick the wood, the risers and the trim.

Red Oak Treads

Warm stained red oak suits the older floors in houses around Cannon Square.

White Oak Treads

White oak shows a light, clean grain in a harbor house with strong morning sun.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory resists sandy sneakers, and maple lightens a dark stairwell in a Quaketaug Hill cape.

Painted or Wood Risers

Along Mechanic Street, owners pick white painted risers or oak ones in the tread stain.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

An open stair in a Lords Point cottage gets return ends that round each tread at the side.

Landing Treads

In older Stonington houses, the top tread sits level with the second floor boards.

How much is one new hardwood step in Stonington?

One step is $60 and includes the hardwood tread, riser, bull nose, stain matched to your floor and labor.

Will you remove the old stair carpet?

Yes. Carpet, pad, tack strips and staples come out, and the removal price is set on site at the free visit.

Can I keep my treads and just refinish them?

If the oak is in good shape, hand sanding and refinishing is $50 a step. Cracked or worn thin treads get replaced.

Can the risers be oak?

Yes. Oak risers in the tread stain give a full wood look, while painted white risers give a crisp contrast.

Will new treads stop the squeaks?

Usually. Loose steps are fastened first, and each new tread is fitted, glued and secured so it stays quiet.

How do you finish an open sided stair?

On an exposed end we fit a return, which wraps the rounded nose around the tread's side.

How long does a stair job take?

Unfinished jobs often start the next day and wrap up in about two. Prefinished treads have to be ordered and run longer.

Is there a warranty on stairs?

Yes. Stair labor has a one year warranty, and your Stonington crew is licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
