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.

Replace Stairs Handrails Iron Balusters Blue Bell PA





Here we Replace Stairs and Install new Oak Handrails and install beautiful old-world Tuscan style Iron Balusters in Blue Bell PA. We helped an extremely discerning homeowner design her very own creation to fit her home's decor. Her wise husband wisely allowed her complete freedom while she went through the selection process. Whenever he was asked what he thought, he wisely said "I love it!!" And I must say, she really did a good job of allowing him multiple opportunities to agree with her. They really were a cute couple. It was nice to see.  It's not every day you see a happily married couple who know how to communicate, and show love and respect for one another especially in an environment where contracting and design questions need to be discussed and decided. And, I think she did a fabulous job of selecting just the right design, don't you think?

Ok, where were we? Oh yeah, so, anyway, we pulled out the old builder grade posts, rail, and wood balusters, and replaced them with what you see here. It looks like we Replaced the Stairs but we just refinished the treads and repainted the staircase and it looks brand new. It helped that her stair was in really good shape to begin with. We installed the new posts and handrails and drilled all the holes for the iron balusters to be installed later. The painter then came in and stained everything to perfection, and we followed him with the iron balusters within a day or two of polyurethane drying.

So, if you're in the Blue Bell PA or surrounding area, like Ft Washington, Lafayette Hill, Plymouth Meeting, Springhouse, Gwynedd, Abington, or Ambler, and are as wise as this husband, be sure to give Ron a call today and setup your FREE consultation. He can be reached at 215-694-5046, or his email is 45stairman@gmail.com. You can get back in your wife's good graces in no time,  and she'll glory in her very own brand new Handrails and Iron Balusters. She may even tell you how smart you are and how strong you are, and how good-looking you.....ok, ok,  maybe we're going a bit too far, but you get the point.

Your local Stair Manufacturer Rail Installer in Medford NJ. Initially this homeowner wanted to refinish her treads (sand off old stain and restain) and have me install a new railing for her. Upon close inspection of her stair, I discovered a lot of movement in the staircase overall, and numerous treads and risers with cracks and splits all the way through the wood, making that tread very weak because it was in two, sometimes three pieces. When I see that, I know we have to gut all the treads and risers and basically rebuild a new stair in place or pull entire staircase out and replace with new, stringers and all. The stringers were in decent shape, so we gave her all new treads and risers, and new rail, post, and balusters. Ron Hartman has been restoring and repairing and replacing entire staircases and handrails for 24 years from Princeton to Paoli, and from Point Pleasant to Pottstown, and every town in between.
