Treads, Risers and Nosing

Our stair stock includes red oak, white oak, maple and hickory, each tread a full inch thick with a rounded nose. Risers can be primed white or stained to match.

Tread Samples at Home

A stained sample tread gets set on the lowest step beside the hall floor, so both colors can be compared in the same light before we commit.

Quiet, Solid Steps

Few openings in older capes are truly square. Each tread is traced against its own skirt and trimmed by hand, so no sliver of light shows along the stringer.

One Year Stair Warranty

Your stair carpenters are on our payroll, trained through the NWFA and covered by license and insurance. Should a step loosen before next year, it is tightened free.

Stair Carpenters Near the Common

Steep stairs climbing to dormer bedrooms in capes, wide front staircases in older homes by the common and plain straight runs in newer colonials near the Town Forest each call for a different approach. Every opening is measured on site, and each tread is cut to fit.

/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE

Wood Stair Treads and Risers

A staircase from the 1800s is built differently from one framed in the nineties, so stringers and risers get checked before we plan.

Red Oak Treads

Red oak is the classic pick in a postwar cape, taking color well and echoing its original floors.

White Oak Treads

White oak shows tight, cool toned grain that looks crisp beside light gray walls.

Hickory and Maple Treads

Hickory has bold, busy grain that hides dents from cleats, while maple stays smooth and quiet.

Painted or Wood Risers

Crisp white risers let dark stained treads pop, or one stain can carry across both treads and risers.

Open Stairs and Return Ends

On an open side, mitered returns wrap the tread end so no raw end grain shows from the foyer.

Landing Treads

Up in a cape dormer hall, a level oak landing means no ridge for bare feet coming down to the kitchen at night.

Floors That Flow Into the Staircase

Fresh treads can make the upstairs hall look tired. We sand that hall to match, run oak or LVP through the bedrooms and mend split strips, so foyer, stairs and landing read as one job.

How are new hardwood treads priced?

New solid hardwood runs $60 per tread including labor, while a sound original tread is refinished for $50. Your quote lists each step and landing.

Can steep cape stairs stay the same?

Yes. The framing stays as built, so the steep rise up to those dormer bedrooms keeps its shape while new treads and risers go over it.

Do you remove the old runner?

We do. Carpet and pad are pulled, we pry out all the staples and tack strips, and every step is vacuumed before any wood is set.

Can tread color match our hallway?

Usually. Sample pieces get stained beside your hall floor and adjusted until both tones line up, so the landing and steps look like they were built together.

Why do my stairs creak?

Usually a loose tread rubbing on its stringer or riser. Our carpenters glue and screw each new tread in place, so those squeaks never come back.

Should old treads be kept or replaced?

Sturdy oak with no long splits is worth refinishing at $50 apiece. Any tread cracked through or chewed by a puppy should be swapped for new ones at $60.

Can we reach the bedrooms while you work?

Yes. We install in sections or skip every other step for a day, so the family can still climb up to bed each night while work continues.

Do you guarantee stair projects?

Yes. Our carpenters stand behind their stair work for twelve months. Separately, the tread manufacturer warrants the wood itself under separate terms.
