Stair Refinishing in Smithfield, VA
Smithfield has two kinds of stairs: original heart pine and oak in the historic homes downtown, and carpeted builder stairs in the newer neighborhoods along the Pagan River. We handle both.

The Stairs We Work On in Smithfield
On older Main Street homes we refinish what is there, keeping worn character where you want it and fixing loose treads and squeaks first. In newer homes, swapping carpet for hardwood treads with white risers is the upgrade most people ask for.
- Historic treads: Gentle sanding to keep as much original wood as possible.
- New construction: Carpeted stairs converted to hardwood.
- Handrails: Sanded and refinished to match the new treads.
- Stain matching: Stairs matched to existing hardwood floors.
