Does anyone kow a handyman or company that replaces stairs. We are in the process of renovating a brownstone and the old stairs can’t be fixed. All help is appreciated.

  1. NY Circular: 1 long run. $1800
    We took care of the landings and support. He also made a bunch of spindles for us (40-50??). That was $900 extra.

  2. Work done by NY Fine Circular stairs for 3 long runs and 3 landings:
    -new red oak treads, risers, bullnoses and trim
    -spraypainted spindles offsite
    -leveled and reinforced all steps and banister

    Total: $11K
    Silent beautiful staircase: priceless

  3. Heightswoodworking just finished my stairs
    last week — 3 landings + 2 long runs.
    They replace and level treads, new risers,
    new bullnose, reinforce as needed, etc. Of all
    the contractors I’ve dealt with on my reno,
    heights delivered on time and did a spectacular
    job.

    Approx cost per step is $300. Total cost for
    mine was $14K. I can only justify the cost
    because the staircase is a focal point of the
    house.

    PS I took the trouble of removing all of my
    spindles and had them dip-stripped down the
    jersey shore (http://www.centralrefinishing.com/ very cheap: $8 each where it’s dble
    or triple here). Under many layers of paint was
    mahongany that we will now varnish. So in addition
    to new oak treads we effectively have all new mahogany spindles.

  4. >>>>try Aomr at Heights Woodworking 411 3rd Ave. They replaced my treads and risers and stripped and re-installed my spindles and hand rails. New stairs…..Soxco, restore stairs….Heights Wood. I know….I used both!

  5. We just had our stairs rebuilt by Bill at NY Fine Circular stairs. We were thoroughly pleased and cannot recommend them highly enough. The price was very reasonable and they finished the job very quickly.

  6. For Interior staircases, the place to use is Soxco. The name of the owner is Anton, I believe. they replace all wood staircases and refit banisters with spindles to the new stairs. they are really good.

  7. Hello 4:12, can you tell us about what Heights is charging for the work? They came to my house and spent about an hour measuring and writing and making notes and then I never got an estimate, after calling them back for about 3 months I finally gave up. Thanks for any info
