Templated to the run
West Ward straight-run box stairs are narrow and rarely uniform — we template each tread so it sits tight to the skirt board.

Built for Easton
Tread Replacement that fits the homes here.
Easton's West Ward rowhouses were originally built with painted poplar treads and a skirt board against one wall — and the most common West Ward call is a tread-and-riser replacement after the floors are refinished, so the stair matches the new floor species. These straight-run box stairs finish in three to four days on site. Our Center Valley remodel shows the matched-floor result.

Tread Replacement for Eastonhomes — what's involved.
Matched to your floor by species
Red oak, white oak, or a darker walnut — matched to the species of the floors you just refinished, so the stair flows into the room.
Built in Whitehall
Building and sanding happen at our shop, not on your Easton stairs — no dust or fumes through a row house. Treads arrive unfinished.
Days on site, not weeks
Standard West Ward and College Hill flights install in a day; the longest part is the ~4 weeks of shop fabrication first.

Tread Replacement in Easton — your questions, answered.
How much does stair tread replacement cost in Easton?
A standard Easton flight starts around $3,000 and rises with tread count, species, and whether risers and the skirt are included. A full West Ward rowhouse tread-and-riser run is more than a treads-only job. That's a range to set expectations, not a quote — we confirm firm after templating your stair.
Can you match new treads to floors I just refinished in my Easton home?
Yes — that's the most common West Ward request. We match the treads to your floor's species so the refinished floor flows straight into the stair, whether that's a darker walnut or a natural oak.
Do West Ward rowhouse stairs need the whole staircase replaced?
No — usually just the treads. The straight-run box structure is typically sound; we replace the original painted poplar treads with hardwood and leave the framing and risers in place. The narrow footprint actually makes these among the faster jobs we do.
How long does tread replacement take in an Easton rowhouse?
About four weeks of shop fabrication after templating, then three to four days on site for a full tread-and-riser run (a single day for a treads-only flight). Treads arrive unfinished, so there's no on-site sanding marathon.
Should I refinish or replace the original treads in my College Hill home?
If the treads are the matching species, thick, uncupped, and sound, refinishing is cheaper and preserves original material — important in a College Hill period home. If the species doesn't match, or they're thin, warped, or deeply worn, new treads are cleaner. We assess on site before you spend.
