/ OUR SERVICES
Watchung Stair Installers
We rebuild staircases in Watchung colonials, split levels with half flights and hillside homes with long runs. Carpet and staples are pulled, treads and risers are fit tight and nosing is sanded smooth.
/ RED OAK, WHITE OAK, HICKORY AND MAPLE
Wood Stair Treads and Risers
A wide colonial flight, a half flight between split level floors and a steep basement run each take different joinery. Here is how we handle them.
Red Oak Treads
A wide colonial flight looks best with full depth treads and a clean rounded nosing.
White Oak Treads
Stain on new steps is matched to the landing so the whole flight reads as one piece.
Hickory and Maple Treads
Short half flights between split level floors are cut precisely so each step has equal height.
Painted or Wood Risers
Loose treads on an older staircase are screwed from below until the creak ends.
Open Stairs and Return Ends
Laminate on a basement stair stays clean for laundry runs and winter boots.
Landing Treads
Corners and landings are scribed on site, since few walls are perfectly square.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much do new stairs cost in Watchung?
Each oak tread is $60, and the riser, nosing, stain and labor come with it. Redoing the flight you have now is $50 per step.
Can you pull the carpet and check what is underneath?
Yes, and we inspect the framing once the pad is gone. Loose steps are secured before treads go on.
What is the cheapest route for a basement stair?
Laminate at $50 per step, which is tough and easy to wipe.
Will the treads match my upstairs floor?
We stain a spare tread beside your hall boards and adjust until the tones agree.
How long does a flight take?
New treads on an ordinary flight take a day or two. Refinishing runs longer because coats must cure.
Can we use the stairs during the work?
We finish in stages so the household keeps one route. Fresh coats get a rest before traffic.
Is there a discount for booking online?
Yes, $250 off through the website. Furniture moving is a flat $250.
What guarantee comes with the work?
A year of labor coverage from our crew and the manufacturer warranty on the wood.
