INSTALLATION GUIDELINE AND TIPS

Starting a new build or a renovation project can be very daunting!

When first starting a new project there are many different aspects and components to consider. One of the most important factors to think about is planning ahead! This is important as it will ensure that there is plenty of time to meet each and every deadline that will pop up.

Knowing and considering how every aspect of how a project ties together is important to take into account. You will need to think about what flooring you are planning to use in your home as it will dictate which type of wood species would be best to use on the stairs and railings. With flooring in mind it is important to note that it is best to install the stairs, nosings, and railings prior to the installation of any flooring.

One last factor to consider is that specific stair openings and layouts will allow and accommodate different styles of stairs, railings, or glass based on the design. It is important to assess your project and what may be possible early on in the design process. This will ensure that changes can be made if necessary.

As the industry continues to increasingly get busier each and every day it is crucial to plan ahead and for different steps in the process in advance! Providing yourself with ample amount of time for each step of the project to be planned and installed seamlessly.

If you have any questions or concerns about how to get started on your next renovation project or a new build, please reach out to us and we would be more than happy to help!

DESIGN FEATURE - TREAD CAPS

Have you been looking at your stairs recently and think that they are in need of being refreshed but the structure is still in great shape?

Tread caps are a great way to refresh a set of stairs that are still in good structural shape and are cost effective. Tread caps are installed directly over existing treads! This ensures that the staircase layout and design structure is not changed. By capping a set of stairs allows for a cost effective refresh to occur when the frame and stability of the current stair structure is not the issue.

Along with the addition of tread caps, new railings can reconstruct a space. Combining different materials, such as wood, glass, and steel can create an exquisite railing system to be created into any and all designs.

Check out our social media pages for more inspiration and ideas on how to refresh your home!

BUDGETARY ESTIMATES

Starting a renovation or new build project can be very overwhelming! There are many decisions to make which effect both the budget and design of your project. We have included some tips below to help ensure a seamless process when reaching out for stair/railing estimates.

  1. Floor Plans/Photos

    It is important to have a copy of your floor plans or photos of your current space. This way we can base a budgetary estimate off of the size and layout of your project.

  1. Design Inspiration

    Photos of design inspiration will help us to determine what style you are hoping to see included in your quote. These photos are also helpful to visualize what your new stairs or railings will look like in your own space.

  1. Flooring Type

    It is important to narrow down what type of flooring you will be using for your space as this will impact what wood species you will want to use for your stairs/railings. Typically, we would recommend going with the same wood species you are using for flooring so that it is easy to match when you go to stain. Contrasting the flooring with a darker stain is also an option, or paint grade materials.

  1. Budget

    It is important to keep your budget in mind when thinking of renovating your stairs/railings. There are many options to fit all price ranges; However, it is important to consider what will work best for your space and budget.

  1. Timelines

    Planning for your stair/railing project well in advance is a great way to keep your project on track. This allows for the appropriate time to confirm designs and ensure that your stairs and railings are installed relative your desired time frame.

INSTALLATION TIPS

Starting a renovation or a new build project can be very overwhelming!

There are hundreds of decisions to make and many factors to consider. It is crucial to plan ahead whenever you are working on this type of project to ensure that there is plenty of time to meet your deadlines and achieve the finish you are looking for.

It is also important to consider how every aspect of a project ties together. For example, the flooring you decide to use in your home will impact what wood species would be best to use for your stairs and railings. It is also important to consider that it is best to install stairs, railings and nosings prior to new flooring.

Another factor to consider is that certain stair openings and layouts will accommodate different styles of stairs, railings, or glass based on their design. Assessing what is possible with your project early on in the design process is an important step in ensuring that changes can be made if necessary.
