REFINISHING
Transform Carpet-Covered Stairs
Our crew can expertly refinish carpet-covered stairs, giving them a stunning new look. Here’s what you can expect during the process:
Carpet Removal:
We’ll remove the carpeting, whether it’s installed in separate pieces or as one continuous wrap.
Tack strips and staples will be carefully removed to expose the underlying hardwood.
Sanding, Staining, and Finishing:
After exposing the hardwood, we sand the surface to smooth imperfections.
We then apply custom stains to enhance the wood’s natural beauty, followed by a durable finish to protect your stairs.
STAIR PARTS AND DESCRIPTIONS
Understanding Stair Components
Here are the key parts of a staircase, each contributing to its functionality and beauty:
TREADS: The horizontal surface of each step that you walk on. Treads can be made of wood, metal, or other materials and may feature non-slip finishes for safety.
RISERS: The vertical element between each step, providing height and structure. Risers may be slightly inclined for added comfort when climbing.
BANISTER: The long handrail running alongside the staircase, offering support and enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the stairs.
STRINGERS: The structural boards on either side of the staircase that support the treads and risers.
SPINDLES: Also known as balusters, these vertical supports between the banister and the stairs add decorative detail and safety.
