Stair Refinishing in Mathews, VA
Mathews cottages sit low and close to the water, and the stairs inside take the damp along with everything else. We refinish worn treads, replace the ones that have gone soft, and pick finishes that suit a waterfront home.

The Stairs We Work On in Mathews
Damp crawl spaces can loosen stairs and swell treads over time. We fix the structure first, then refinish or replace the treads. Lighter, natural stains are popular in Mathews cottages, where they keep small spaces bright and hide sand and salt.
- Waterfront cottages: Small, steep stairs that need careful work.
- Damp-damaged treads: Replaced and matched to the rest.
- Light, natural colors: Keeps small cottages bright.
- Second homes: Work done while you are away.
