Removal of Existing Finish
If your staircase has an existing finish or covering, it is carefully removed to prepare the surface for the new materials. This step ensures proper adhesion and a smooth, even finish for the refacing materials.
Installation of New Treads, Risers, and Railings
New treads (the horizontal part of the stairs that you step on) and risers (the vertical part between the treads) are installed. These components can be made of various materials, each offering unique aesthetics and durability. Additionally, new railings and balusters are installed or updated to match the new design.
Finishing Touches
Staircase refacing professionals pay close attention to details such as molding, trim, and decorative elements. These finishing touches enhance the overall appearance of the staircase, creating a cohesive look that complements your home's style.
Safety Measures
Staircase refacing also includes ensuring that the stairs meet safety standards. This involves secure installation, proper spacing of balusters, and stable railing systems to prevent accidents and ensure the safety of those using the stairs.
Clean-Up and Inspection
After the refacing is complete, professionals conduct a thorough clean-up, removing any debris and ensuring the area is spotless. A final inspection is carried out to guarantee that the refaced staircase meets quality standards and fulfills your expectations.
