Brief Description:
Stair ReCraft and Rail Replacement

Detailed Description:
This project was a recrafting of both the main and basement staircases into solid hardwood Oak treads in a Hazelnut finish. New railing was also added for both staircases.

The main staircase received a new volute and an over-the-post railing system. There were 8 box treads, 2 winder treads, 1 open tread, and 1 bullnose tread that were recrafted in solid Oak. Wainscotting going up the right side of the staircase was also added, finishing off the new sophisticated look of the staircase.

The basement staircase consisted of 10 box treads and 2 winder treads that were recrafted in solid Oak with a Hazelnut finish. The railing system that was added was a small over-the-post system that sat upon a new 8" plate.

The last part of the project was the recrafting of the upstairs hallway to match the new main staircase. The length of the hallway was 72 square feet with 4 doorway thresholds.

The total project took about 2 days to install.

    Letter Received from Stan and Nancy Prochaska - August 5, 2008:
    Dear John:

    Our oak staircases are beautiful and the wainscotting looks absolutely great. We cannot be more happy with the results. Working with you and your staff has been a pleasure.

    We appreciate the time that you and your staff spent with us in explaining the process of installing the staircases and the time you took with us when we visited your company's showroom in Haymarket.

    We were excited when Danny Rose and his crew came to install the stairs. As the days went by that week we became even more appreciative of your installation crew. They were the most effective, professional installers that we have seen in a long time. They answered our questions without our feeling that we had interrupted them. They explained everything to us as they went along. There were friendly, courteous, and it was great to hear them joke between each other. So many other installers hardly ever say anything to us when they come to do a job. It put us at ease to see how easy they worked together.

    Again, it was a pleasure being a customer/client of yours. Already we have had compliments from visitors about our new stairs. We would be happy to recommend your company to future clients.

    Sincerely,
    Stan and Nancy Prochaska
