We refinish worn hardwood stairs, replace carpeted steps with new hardwood treads, and custom-bend LVP so your stairs match your floors.
Start there. It decides the whole job: what we do, how long it takes and what it costs. Pick the one that looks like your house.
CarpetIf there’s solid oak underneath, we sand it and stain it. If it’s builder pine or particleboard (most are), new hardwood treads and risers go on top of the old structure.
Worn woodGray traffic paths and chewed-up nosings sand out. We stain the treads to match your floors (or go darker), paint the risers white, and seal with a satin finish that grips.
LVP floorsWe heat your actual planks and bend them around the front of each step, so there’s no chunky stair-nose piece and no ridge to catch a toe or a dog’s paw.
Not sure which you have? Pull back a corner of carpet on the bottom step, or send a photo with your estimate request and we’ll tell you.
Know your staircase
A great stair job is more than the treads. Tap a part of the staircase to see what we do with it.
Try a color
Dark treads with white risers is the look we are asked for most, but lighter, natural stairs suit open, modern homes. Pick a stain to preview it.
From the first look to the walkthrough.
We count steps, check what the treads are made of and talk through colors.
Itemized by treads, risers, landings, rails and balusters.
Floors and walls around the stairs are covered and dust is contained.
Refinish, install new treads, or bend LVP, depending on your plan.
Stain, paint and seal, then we walk the stairs with you.
Stair refinishing FAQ
Usually two to four days, depending on the number of steps and what gets painted. Your written quote includes the schedule.
Most staircases take two to four days, depending on how many steps there are, whether we are painting risers and balusters, and the finish we use. You will get a schedule with your written quote.
Stairs are often the only way upstairs, so we plan around it. Ask us about working in stages so you keep a way up while coats dry.
Yes. We remove the carpet, pad and tack strips, then either refinish the treads underneath if they are solid hardwood or install new hardwood treads and risers.
We heat your actual LVP planks and bend them around the front edge of each step. The stairs match your floor with no separate stair-nose piece, which looks cleaner and is less likely to trip anyone.
We use a satin or matte sheen on stairs, which has more grip than gloss. If you have small kids or older family members, tell us and we will factor that into the finish we recommend.
Stairs are priced per step, plus risers, landings, handrails and balusters as needed. You get a written, itemized quote before we start, with no surprises.
