Stair restoration matches worn or damaged period parts rather than replacing the staircase. For Nazareth's 18th- and 19th-century Moravian-era homes we source a matching carved newel or have one made, then fit it in Whitehall and deliver it unfinished — installed in a day or two. A single replacement newel runs about $1,200–$2,500.

Built for Nazareth
Stair Restoration that fits the homes here.
Nazareth's downtown carries the same Moravian heritage as nearby Bethlehem — homes around Center Square and along Belvidere Street with turned newels and original walnut handrails, structurally fine but cosmetically worn. Our approach: refinish where we can, match where we can't, sourcing or having matching parts made to suit the carved character.

Questions about stair restoration in Nazareth.
How much does stair restoration cost in Nazareth?
Restoration is priced by profile complexity and how many parts need matching — a single replacement newel runs $1,200–$2,500 depending on the turning. A fuller Moravian-era restoration scales from there. We estimate, usually within a week, after seeing the original parts.
Do you work on Moravian-era stair restorations in Nazareth?
Yes — Nazareth and nearby Bethlehem are our home turf for period restoration. We've worked on homes dating to the 1740s–1850s, sourcing matching carved components or having them made, then fitting them. Documentation packages for preservation review are part of the scope when needed.
Can you match the original newel profile in a historic Nazareth home?
Yes — for both turned and box newel profiles. Bring us a photo or a sample turning, and we source a match or have one made within a few weeks of lead time. Custom moldings on box newels can be reproduced from a returned profile sample.
How does restoration pricing compare to a new-build stair in Nazareth?
Restoration is priced by profile complexity and the number of components to match — a single newel is $1,200–$2,500. New-build subdivision packages are priced per-floorplan and per-lot. Both include shop fabrication, finishing, and crated delivery.
Will restoration disrupt my historic Nazareth interior?
Minimally. Replacement pieces are fit in our Whitehall shop, delivered unfinished, then installed in just a day or two on site, so the historic interior stays largely undisturbed during the work.
