Define the renovation scope
Assess treads, risers, stringers and landings before deciding what can be refinished, refaced or replaced.
Coordinate materials and colour
Plan how the staircase will meet adjacent floors and whether the wood should match or intentionally contrast.
Include railing connections
Review posts, handrails and balusters with the stair finish so connected work is planned in the right order.
Your staircase takes a beating every day. If it's covered in worn carpet or the wood is scratched and creaking, it’s time for an upgrade. We specialize in renovating indoor stairs with materials that are built to last, like solid hardwood. Based here in Peterborough, we skip the sales pitch and focus on doing the job correctly so it doesn't need to be done again in a few years. A solid staircase is safer and adds real value to your home.
Get Rid of Worn-Out Stairs
Old carpet on stairs traps dirt, wears out in paths, and frankly, looks shabby. Worn-out wood treads get scratched, dented, and can become a safety hazard over time. We get straight to the point: we rip out the old material and give you a clean slate. A new hardwood staircase isn't just about looks; it's about getting a durable, easy-to-clean surface that can handle real life.
Our Focus: Durability and Function
We build staircases that stand up to daily use. Our material of choice is solid 3/4 inch hardwood—typically oak or maple—because it's tough. These woods resist damage far better than soft woods or laminate products, which we simply don't use on stairs. We make sure every tread and riser is measured, cut, and installed for a tight fit. This precision is what eliminates the squeaks and flexing you get from a rushed job. It's about building something that feels solid every time you use it.
The Process is Simple
Our method is straightforward. We start by carefully removing your existing flooring and inspecting the underlying structure, or 'stringers'. If there are structural issues, we fix them first because a solid foundation is non-negotiable. Then we install your new hardwood treads, risers, and any new posts or railings. We focus on a clean finish and a structurally sound installation. The result is a staircase that is built for the long haul.

★★★★★
"My project was a little over 1000 sq ft of hardwood flooring, 350 ft of baseboard trim, 350 feet of door stop and 10 sq ft of tile in front of a fireplace. Upon completion, the rooms looked fabulous for 2 reasons. One was the natural warmth and elegance of wood flooring and secondly, the workmanship of Rudy and his crew. The quality and professionalism of the job was no more evident then where the tile and wood met. The tile was raised to the level of the wood thickness and the 2 met each other at an odd angle. The transition between the 2 surfaces was seamless and flawless and no transition pieces were required to hide any shortcomings. I was most impressed with this part of the job as only an experienced professional would do such a perfect job. In addition, Rudy and his crew were very courteous and cleaned up the mess after each days work. Even though I invited them to bring their saws and cutters indoors because it was cold, they insisted on doing this part of the job outdoor to minimise the mess in my home. I would definitely recommend Rudy and his crew to anyone seeking to have their flooring done. He is reasonably priced and offers quality work in exchange. Thanks Rudy and crew. Great Job."

We had the carpet on our staircase and flooring replaced with hardwood and laminate and we were happy with the end result. Rudy and his team transformed my house in a beautiful place to live and taking the time to make sure that the job was done in the way we wanted. I would definitely recommend this company to my friends."
