We quote on site, because the price tracks the actual fix — re-securing a single squeaky tread is small, while a failing rail that needs a railing replacement is more. After we see your Allentown stair you get a firm number before we start.

Yes — squeaks are one of our most common Allentown calls. They're usually a tread that has separated from a riser or a failed glue block; we re-secure the joint from above or below. In most West End and South Side homes the underlying stair is perfectly sound.

Usually not. A wobbly newel in an older Allentown home is almost always a base-plate or fastener issue, not a failed post. We re-anchor or re-block it from below. Only if the post itself is split do we replace it and splice into the existing handrail.

Not as a marketed service. We handle the everyday failures — loose balusters, a damaged tread, a wobbly rail — through the right fix: a baluster swap, a tread replacement, or a railing replacement. We tell you which one your stair needs after we see it.

Yes. A handrail pulling off the wall or loose at a newel is a routine fix — we re-secure the brackets or the rail-to-newel connection. If a wall-mount bracket has torn out of old West End plaster, we re-anchor into solid blocking.
