## Questions

<!-- pulse:slot services.staircase-renovation.faq -->
### Do you replace the whole staircase?

Not usually. Most staircases are structurally sound and only look tired, so we clad the existing stairs with new treads and risers and update the handrail and spindles. Where a staircase does need replacing, we can remove the old one and build new steps and risers to fit.

### Can my stairs match my new floor?

Yes, and that is the point of doing both together. We colour and style match the treads to your new hall floor, so the stairs look like part of the same scheme rather than an afterthought. Many of our staircase jobs are done alongside a hall floor.

### Can you make stairs safer?

Yes. We fit sturdy treads with secure fixings, replace loose handrails and spindles, and can add anti-slip treatments to the treads. It is worth doing if you have young children or older relatives in the house, and it costs little extra when the stairs are being renovated anyway.

### What happens to the handrail and spindles?

We can sand and refinish the existing handrail, newel posts and spindles, or replace them with new ones in timber to match the treads. Painted spindles with a timber handrail is a popular combination with a light floor, and it keeps the staircase looking bright in a narrow hall.

### Can you do the stairs and the hall floor together?

Yes, and it is the best way to get a perfect match. We plan both as one job.

### Can carpet on stairs be replaced with wood?

Yes. We lift the carpet and grippers and clad the stairs with new timber or laminate treads and risers.

### Do you fit painted risers?

Yes. White painted risers with timber treads is one of the most popular looks.
