Quoting Steps- Start to Finish 

"Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase" Martin Luther King Jr. 
Whether you are planning a renovation to your existing stairs and/or railings or starting from scratch, taking the proper steps to bringing your stair vision to life will save you time, money and headaches
As soon as you decide to renovate or build, please contact us via email at info@stairhaus.com. By starting the design process early, you leave ample time to coordinate with yourself, builders and planners. It is a lot easier to create your dream stairs and meet expectations if you reach out to us as soon as possible.
Quoting Process:
If you are completing a renovation, please include in your email any pictures of your current stairs and railings as well as any inspiration pictures. If you don’t have inspiration pictures, feel free to check out our Instagram @stairhaus_inc and website for ideas and include them in your email.
If it is a new build, kindly include floor plans and pictures you have found for your new set of stairs and/ or railings. You will also want to include the flooring type (wood or tile) including the type of wood.
For any project (renovation or a new build) including the location of the project and your timeline is of great importance. 
It is also important to note specific design interests in your email. The more information provided the easier it will be for us to execute.
Once we receive your email one of our dedicated team members will review your request, discuss with you and provide you with a budgetary estimate. If you would like to move forward with the project a deposit is required to secure a place in our installation queue. Once we have a deposit on file, we will schedule a time for an onsite measure to confirm our quote. Shop drawings or renderings will also be provided for your final review and approval. We will also provide you with a timeframe for installation and contact you in advance to ensure your project is still on track. Final payment is due upon completion of your installation.

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.

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.

Design Feature- Glass Inserts

As summer is upon us, now is the best time to consider adding a glass feature to your home!

The use of glass as a guard, whether it be indoor or outdoor, can truly transform a space. As many of us continue to work remotely, why not take advantage of the situation and make your space as inspiring as possible.

Glass is a feature that can be included in many different ways. Glass can be used as a guard, incorporated into the railing design, or as a wall itself. The use of glass in any design adds a high-end custom finish to the project. The addition of glass to any space also immediately makes it more open and bright, while maximizing the views of any location.
