Stairway Treatment
Renovating an stairway could add
considerable value to a house.
Threads and Risers
Replacing carpet or hardwood floor
threads for one piece solid threads can be laborious but a very
straight forward task if you are well prepare for the project.
Home depot usually carries solid maple
threads that come combine in a package with a piece of maple veneer plywood to be install as the raiser. The package sales for less than
40.00 dollars for step.
Others suppliers sell oak for about the
same price.
This price is only for pieces
approximately 40 inches long, longer threads will be more expensive
of course. I have some suppliers that will give us a very good price
for custom sizes and woods.
Railings
Railings bring beauty to the stairs.
There are many designs to choose from
at the time to replace the balusters.
Newels add beauty and strength to the
railings
Often a good refinishing brings back
all the charm of an old railing. I often disassemble the railing and
bring the pieces to the shop for a good sanding job and spray
painting or finishing.
When the task calls for the use of bull noses and floor transitions a well plan design and the use of
good measurements will help with the final result.
The installation of a designed
wainscoting on wall side of the stairs will add elegance to the stairways and it will replace with its chair rail molding at the top
the use of a bad looking hand rail fasten to the wall.
Task complexity : medium

The practical use of the space under
the stairs is a custom feature that add storage space to a home.
