Stair Restoration inMacungie, PA.
Stair restoration matches worn or damaged period parts — newels, balusters, treads — rather than replacing the staircase. For Macungie's 1800s Pennsylvania-German farmhouses we source replacement newels and balusters turned to match the home's original profiles, or have them made, and finish them to the existing stain tone. A profile-matched restoration runs about 4–5 weeks; a single newel $1,200–$2,500.

Stair Restoration in Macungie — your questions, answered.
How much does stair restoration cost in Macungie?
Restoration is priced by profile complexity and the number of parts to match. A single replacement newel runs about $1,200–$2,500 depending on the turning; a fuller farmhouse restoration scales from there. A profile-matched job typically takes 4–5 weeks of lead time.
Do you restore Pennsylvania-German farmhouse stairs in Macungie?
Yes — period-sympathetic restoration is part of what we do. Macungie Borough has original 1800s farmhouses with stair components worth preserving. We source replacement newels and balusters turned to match the home's original profiles — or have them made — and finish them to the existing stain tone.
Can you match the original newel profile in my Macungie farmhouse?
Yes — for both turned and box profiles. Bring us a photo or a sample turning and we match it within a few weeks of lead time. We can also reproduce custom moldings on box newels from a returned profile sample.
Is restoration better than a new stair for a Macungie farmhouse?
For a period Pennsylvania-German farmhouse, almost always. The original parts are usually superior material and carry the home's character. We match only what's damaged and refinish the rest, preserving authenticity and value.
How long does a farmhouse restoration take in Macungie?
A profile-matched restoration typically runs 4–5 weeks of lead time for the matched parts and finishing, then a one-to-two-day install. Everything is finished in our Whitehall shop to minimize disruption to the historic interior.
