Flared Oak Stair Treads and Handrail Haddon Heights

Here's a nice example of Flared Oak Stair Treads and Handrail in Haddon Heights New Jersey. We did this project for a local Builder/Developer/Architect, Watson Development. His customer wanted a little more than the standard L-shape stair that was called for originally. So we gave her a Flared Double-Open Bullnose Starting Step to make her foyer a little more "grand".

It's important to remember, when selecting your Newel Post, and Baluster, and Handrail, style, to consider everything in and around your home that will be affected by that selection. Some customers don't know what to choose, so they ask the builder, he asks me, and then I give the customer some options that would fit their particular house and layout. I think it worked perfectly here, because she loves it, and that's job one.

Iron Balusters in Evesham Twp NJ

This house in Evesham Twp with Iron Balusters was fun to do. The bigger they are, the more fun they are to do. And to look at. Everybody loves the Flared Main Stair. It makes such a dramatic difference when you walk in the front door. And when you walk up the Stairs.
Homeowner gave me a picture from a magazine that she wanted to incorporate into her Balcony Rail. I then gave it to my iron specialist and he created the Custom Iron Panel that makes such a difference especially when viewing from the family room. The back stair pie shaped treads were first laid out and drawn on a cad system to ensure the exact fit for that well opening. This home builders' procedure is always the same. (Every builder has his own way of doing things) He puts the roof on, puts the windows in, installs the doors, and makes sure the house is dry, and then we deliver and install stair. (This stair was not light with that flare) House is then finished all the way to paint, and then I come in with all the rail parts and do the Install of the Posts, Rail, Nosings, and Iron Balusters.

If you're ready to build your custom home, and want the Stair and Rail to be the best you can find, to match the rest of your home, give me a call and make an appointment.

Wood Handrail Replacement in Philadelphia

Wood Handrail Replacement in Philadelphia. This customer has a soon-to-be toddler, and was concerned about the big spaces in his old, ugly, wrought iron railing.

I treat each home like I would want a contractor to treat my home. With care and respect. This was in Roxborough area of Philadelphia. Installation took two days, and homeowner stained rail himself. I then returned and installed balusters within a day or so. I usually do that as a favor to painter/stainer so they don't have to "cut in" all around each baluster with paint and stain, thereby saving lots of time.

I don't work for the big box builders; I mostly work for homeowners who want to upgrade their builder-grade stairs and rail after a few years, and want their stairway and foyer to match the rest of their house.

Maple Victorian Newel Post and Rail Installed in Medford NJ

Here's a nice example of a Maple Victorian Box Newel Post and Handrail to match the Maple floor and Staircase. The Balusters are 1 1/2" sq. at base, the box newel is 6 1/4" sq. at base. Each Rail part has a style number assigned to it by its' respective manufacturer. This customer went with the 5715 Balusters and the 4091FL(uted) starting Post, and the 4075FL(uted) Posts for upstairs. The 4075 Newel Post is 3 1/2" sq. We used the 6900 series Raleigh Jr Handrail, which is 2 3/8" high and 2 5/8" wide. I like the combination, it gives a very classic look, which fit the house well. Customer has grandchildren visiting often, and wanted something very sturdy. Everything we do is very sturdy and solid, but nothing is more sturdy and solid than a big, 6" box newel.
Whatever your situation is, chances are I've seen it before, sometimes dozens of times, sometimes hundreds of times, in the course of 20 years. I love ripping out old junky Rails. Especially the ones that were obviously done by someone who had no idea what they were doing, and they're on the verge of falling down, and literally falling apart. I've seen people use multiple neckties tied from one Baluster to another to keep their children from crawling or falling through the gaps in the Railing. I wish I took 20 years of videos just for moments like that. Kind of funny and kind've not. I've seen some really unsafe situations. If you have an unsafe stair or Rail situation, don't hesitate to call me at 215-694-5046 and schedule your free consultation.
