Modern Farmhouse Maple Stairs and Rails with Iron Balusters Moorestown NJ

                                         

This Modern Farmhouse Maple Stairs and Rails with Iron Balusters in Moorestown, NJ, turned out beautifully. I wish I could have taken some pictures after everything was tidied up, but here they are, despite the chaos! Nothing was where it was supposed to be since there was work happening in multiple areas of the house at the same time. And clients moved out and moved back in, more than once, during the renovation. However, the team was great to work with—very laid-back and easygoing.

This project involved a lot of work! The stairs were in real bad shape. As per usual, the previous contractor from 20 years prior, didn't do anything correctly, to say the least, so we had to reinforce and partially rebuild all the old stairs, which took a few days. then we installed the new maple treads and painted risers. After that, we moved on to the posts and rails, taking another week or so to complete. Once the painter/stainer finished everything to match the floors, we returned to install the iron balusters, which took an additional day or two. The work extended from the basement up to the third floor.

Here are some specifics about the job: the newel posts are from the 4003 series, measuring 3 1/2" square, and we needed 20 of them. The handrail is from the 6800 series, with dimensions of 2 3/8" high and 2 5/8" wide....@ 130'. The iron balusters are satin black, measuring 1/2" wide. The styles of the iron balusters used were 16.1.34 (with 1 knuckle), 16.2.1 (straight bar), and 16.1.35 (with 2 knuckles), which we alternated throughout the installation. (280 total).

We work all over the Delaware Valley, in towns like Voorhees, Cherry Hill, Marlton, Mt Laurel, Medford, Haddonfield, Ocean City, Margate, Wildwood, and everywhere in between.

Remodel Staircase With Painted Box Newels Hardwood Treads And Handrail And Iron Balusters In Mullica Hill NJ

A recent project involved Remodeling a Staircase for a young couple in Mullica Hill, NJ. The couple wanted Painted Box Newels, Hardwood Treads, Handrails, and Iron Balusters. The project took about a week to complete, as we had to replace everything that touched the stairs - including the nosing, posts, handrail, and balusters. Safety was a top priority, especially with a little one running around. We worked around other ongoing projects in the house, and the couple was kind enough to trust us to do our job without any distractions.

Although I didn't take many before pictures, the results were impressive. The staircase looked brand new and added a touch of elegance to the home. While most of my customers trust me to do my job, it was refreshing to work with a couple who never questioned our methods. 

One of the challenges was cutting off the rounded bullnose starting step on both sides at the bottom of the stair. That's why there's an unfinished part of the floor beside the post at the bottom. The painter hadn't come back to touch up that part yet. They wanted to keep everything a little more modern and square, and the round bullnose had to go. 

So, If you're in need of a Staircase that needs a Remodel, you can't go wrong with the Painted Box Newels and Hardwood Handrails with Iron Balusters pictured here, and it doesn't matter if you're in Mullica Hill, or Swedesboro, or Sewell, or Glassboro or any surrounding towns, be sure to give Ron Hartman Woodwork a call at 215-694-5046 to get your FREE consultation. 

Traditional Oak Stair With Painted Box Newels and Square Balusters Moorestown NJ

 This Traditional Oak Stair With Painted Box Newels And Square Balusters In Moorestown NJ really makes all the difference when you walk into this warm and cozy home. I can't even remember what the rail looked like that we ripped out. I just know it was old and ugly. 

This took about 3 days to complete. Super nice people. Super accommodating. 

I do like the stained trim on the post. That's not standard so when ordering those it usually takes a little longer, but I think it's worth the wait.

It seems everyone is going with the square balusters these days. And I must admit, they do look good.

For this stair, we left the side stringers in place, because they were in really good shape. And we disassembled the old treads and risers and replaced with new. The house was built fairly well, so it made for an easier job for us. When you have to deal with really shoddy original work, that tends to make our work not so fun sometimes.

So, if you're in Mt Laurel, Marlton, Medford, Voorhees, Haddonfield or surrounding towns, and you're wanting to update your old foyer, be sure to give Ron a call at 215-694-5046 or email him at 45stairman@gmail.com for your FREE consultation and you can pick out your own Traditional Oak Stair With Painted Box Newels and Square Balusters like the one here in Moorestown NJ.

Modern White Oak Rail With Box Newels And Square Balusters Ocean City NJ

Here's a great example of a Modern White Oak Hand Rails with Box Newels and Square Balusters in Ocean City NJ. I met these homeowners and they wanted a clean, square, white, shore house look for their staircase. 

It takes a lot to build a new house. It takes time, patience, perseverance, focus, toughness, people skills, communication skills, and of course, money always helps. That list of what it takes could go on and on but you get the idea. When building a house decisions need to be made....often. It's best to make them thoughtfully, but relatively quickly, to keep the project moving forward. I've seen it done a million different ways in 40 years, and it's always nice to see it done well. This couple did a good job responding to questions and meeting challenges directly and deciding quickly which way to go once they heard what the options were.

 I think the end result turned out really well. And now they and their family get to enjoy all our hard work for the next 40-50 years. the square box newels are really popular right now, as are the square balusters. White oak is also getting more and more popular in general, but for floors and stairs in particular.

 Handrails are used every day by everyone living in a particular house. So, they must be up for the challenge of children holding onto them, and teenagers swinging on them, and old folks really leaning, and pulling on them, for 40-50 years, and staying rigid and safe for all that time.

 I just did another job for a customer who runs an inner city gym for at risk youth, and he said he couldn't believe the sturdiness of the stairs and rails we installed 18 years ago, given that they were used every day by dozens of teens just about every day. 

So, if you want it done right the first time, give me a call at 215-694-5046 and schedule your FREE consultation and you can get your very own White Oak Hand Rails with Box Newels and Square Balusters in Ocean City NJ.....or you can choose any style you like and we'll come install it in whatever surrounding shore town you may live in.        

    
 

Wood Stair And Rail Installers Mullica Hill NJ

 

                                  Mahogany Posts And Handrail with Painted Wood Balusters

 

                                 Stair Replacement With Mahogany Treads And Painted Risers

 

I don't want to say this was an "easy" Wood Stair And Rail job by professional Installers in Mullica Hill NJ, but this is as close as it gets to "easy" in the stair and rail replacement world. These homeowners went on vacation and we scheduled the stair install for that week. They were super nice people and accommodating in every way. Stairs were out and new one was installed by @ noon. We then started rail install and finished it next day. We always leave the balusters out till painter is done staining and painting everything, then we come back and do the baluster install and we're done. When replacing anything, but especially stairs, it always comes down to precise measurements. If you get the measurements right, it makes the job "easier". And after 30 years of doing this, I'm always looking for ways to make my life (and the customers' life, obviously) a little easier. They went with mahogany treads and rail and posts and painted risers and stringers. I love mahogany for the look and the finish, and it's easy to work with. Some say we're easy to work with. If you need a new Wood Stair or Rail, and you're looking for some professional Installers in Mullica Hill or surrounding towns to do it the "easy" way... then give us a call at 215-694-5046 to schedule your FREE consultation.  

Remodel Handrails Box Newels With Iron Balusters Voorhees NJ

 Here's a recent Remodeled Handrail with Box Newels and contemporary handrail with Iron Balusters in Voorhees NJ. I should have taken before pictures because I can't even remember what style this customer had before we started, but I know it was ugly lol. This is the original staircase. Not every job do we replace the stair. Sometimes the original is in decent shape and just needs a refinishing, which is what we did here. Another really nice couple who let us do our job and would go out for most of the day while we did our thing. And she would leave the front door open so we could get there when we get there, because she understands how traffic goes in the Delaware Valley. It's always nice when customers understand reality, and yet don't act like your typical reality TV stars, lol. We love helping folks transform their homes into the home they've always wanted. I'm certainly no fan of the pandemic, but it definitely made my contracting life a lot easier. Folks finally allowed me to give prices from pictures that they sent via phone or email. And now everyone has no problem with it. I often still have to go in person to take real measurements, especially if we're doing anything with the stair itself, but many jobs, I show up with material and start the job, and I've never been in the house before. And, I only go to the house once the customer has already decided they want me to do the job. The price rarely changes, and if it does, it often goes down, not up.
