stair spindles/balusters
Hi All, We are resurrecting the staircases in our brownstone and need to add a few missing spindles/balusters to two different baluster styles. We’d love to be able to find some that matches the existing styles (see photos). If you have any advice on where to look – I’d really appreciate it! Thank you! — sorry for the repeat the last message would not allow me to upload photos

There are two stair repair companies in Brooklyn who specialize in fixing old stairs. They can make you exact copies. Search this Forum for their names.

I had some made recently. I bought the wood of my choice at HD. Paid for labor. Great copy and very reasonable price. I shopped around and got them made for less than 1/2 the average quote. Msg me for info.
