Service — Rhode Island
Staircase Remodeling in Rhode Island
From refinishing existing treads to full staircase rebuilds. Owner-operated craftsmanship with 30+ years of experience, serving all of Rhode Island.
Your Staircase Deserves the Same Attention as Your Floors
A freshly refinished floor next to a worn, scuffed staircase is one of the most common things we see — and one of the easiest to fix. Staircase remodeling is a natural companion to any floor refinishing project, and it transforms the look of an entire home.
We offer everything from a simple sand and refinish of existing treads to a full staircase remodel with new treads, risers, and railings. We work in hardwood, engineered wood, and painted risers — and we can match your existing floor species and stain color.
Owner Jayson Matias personally oversees every staircase project. This is one of the areas where experience matters most — staircase geometry, tread nosing, and matching adjacent floors requires a level of skill that most general contractors don't have.

What Customers Say
"Our staircase was an embarrassment next to our freshly refinished floors. Jayson's team sanded and refinished every tread and riser, matched the stain exactly, and now the staircase looks like it belongs in a magazine."
"Full staircase remodel — new treads, refinished risers, the works. The crew was meticulous. They protected the surrounding floors throughout and the final result is stunning."
"I'd been putting off my staircase for years because I thought it was too expensive. Jayson gave me an honest quote, matched my floor color perfectly, and the job was done faster than expected. Incredible result."
Frequently Asked Questions
What does staircase remodeling include?
Staircase remodeling can range from sanding and refinishing existing treads and risers to a full rebuild — replacing treads, risers, stringers, and railings. We assess your staircase and recommend the right scope based on its current condition and your goals.
Can you match my existing hardwood floors?
Yes. Matching the staircase to existing floors is one of the most common requests we get. We test stain samples and work carefully to achieve the closest possible match. Perfect matching depends on wood species, age, and finish — we're transparent about what's achievable.
How long does a staircase remodel take?
Refinishing an existing staircase typically takes 2–4 days. A partial or full rebuild with new treads and risers may take 3–7 days depending on scope. Custom staircases with new designs can take longer due to material sourcing.
Do you handle railing work too?
Yes — we handle treads, risers, and railings as part of full staircase projects. We'll discuss what's included and what might involve other trades (like a finish carpenter for balusters) during your estimate.
Is it cheaper to refinish or replace staircase treads?
Refinishing is typically far less expensive than replacement, but not always the right answer. If treads are heavily worn, cracked, or structurally compromised, replacement gives a better long-term result. We give you an honest assessment — not the most expensive option.
