Pre-Remodeling: Assessing Your Staircase renovation

Before embarking on a remodeling project, a thorough assessment of your current staircase is essential. This step ensures that all structural and aesthetic considerations are addressed.


When remodeling a staircase, it’s crucial to assess the existing structure to determine the best course of action. This involves evaluating the condition of the stairs, including the treads, risers, handrails, and newel posts. Consider the style and design of your home, as well as your personal preferences, to determine the desired outcome of the remodel. Take note of any safety concerns, such as worn or uneven treads, and identify areas where repairs or replacements are necessary. A thorough assessment will help you create a realistic budget and timeline for the project.

Removing old staircase components requires careful planning and execution to avoid damage to surrounding areas and ensure a safe working environment. Begin by removing any carpeting, tack strips, and underlayment to expose the underlying structure. Use a pry bar to gently remove the old treads and risers, taking care not to damage the stringers or surrounding walls. Remove any handrails, newel posts, and balusters, and set them aside for potential reuse or refinishing. Finally, thoroughly clean the area to prepare it for the installation of new staircase components.

Stair Tread and Riser Renovation: Replacing Stair Treads

Upgrading your stair treads and risers can dramatically enhance the look and feel of your staircase. We offer a variety of materials and styles to choose from.


Replacing stair treads and risers is a great way to give your staircase a fresh new look. Consider using solid wood, such as oak or maple, for a classic and timeless appearance. Alternatively, you can choose from a variety of engineered wood products, such as laminate or hardwood veneer, for a more affordable and durable option. When selecting new treads and risers, be sure to choose materials that complement the existing staircase structure and surrounding decor. Use wood glue to secure the new treads and risers in place, and finish them with a durable coating, such as patio paint, to protect them from wear and tear.
