Stair Railings, Balusters & Stair Trim
Wobbly handrail, dated wood spindles, a stair skirt that never got finished — the stair jobs that are too small for a stair company and too fussy for a handyman.
Stairs are where trim work and safety meet. A handrail has to hold a falling adult; balusters have to pass the 4-inch sphere rule; a newel post has to be anchored into framing, not drywall. We do the carpentry to code and leave it looking like it was always there.
Stairs jobs we do (6)
Basement Stair Enclosure — Close In Open Basement Stairs
The basement is finished but the stairs are still open on one side with a railing and a drop to the floor below. We frame the wall, hang the door, set the rail, and drywall it so the stair matches the rest.

Handrail Replacement & Wall-Mounted Handrail Installation
The handrail wiggles, it stops short of the bottom step, or the basement stairs never had one. We install a rail that holds a falling adult and looks like it belongs.
Read the pageNewel Post Replacement & Loose Newel Post Repair
Grab the post at the bottom of the stairs and it rocks. Or it is solid but it is the one piece that dates the whole staircase. We anchor it into framing and reconnect the rail, or swap it for a box newel.
Read the pageReplace Wood Spindles with Iron Balusters
The oak spindles date the whole staircase. Swapping them for iron is a one- or two-day job that keeps the rail, the newels and the treads you already have.

Stair Skirt Board Installation — Trim Along the Wall Side
The carpet came off and there is a ragged line of drywall along the wall side of the stairs, or the old skirt is chewed up and painted twenty times. We fit a new one tight to every step.
Read the pageStair Tread Replacement — Retro Treads and Risers Over Existing Stairs
The carpet is worn through at the nosings and you want wood stairs to match the new floor. We cap the stair you have or rebuild the treads, one step at a time, and keep it usable each night.
