Maintenance and Care

Your hardwood stairs are more than just a pathway between floors; they're an investment in the beauty and value of your home. Proper care ensures they remain a proud feature for years, if not generations. Here's how you can maintain the elegance of your hardwood stairs.

​

Long-Term Care: Steps to Sustain Beauty

• Regular Cleaning: Dust and clean the stairs regularly to prevent grit and dirt from scratching the wood. Use a soft-bristled broom or a vacuum with a soft attachment designed for hardwood floors.

• Immediate Spill Response: Attend to spills immediately to prevent watermarks or damage. A soft, slightly damp cloth can be used for sticky spills, followed by a dry cloth to remove any residual moisture.

• Appropriate Products: Utilize cleaning and polishing products specifically formulated for hardwood. Avoid oil-based cleaners or waxes that can create a slippery surface or dull the finish over time.

• Protective Pads: Consider placing protective pads under furniture legs or decor that rests on the stair landings to prevent scratches.

• Sunlight Protection: Use window treatments or UV protective film to shield your hardwood stairs from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading and aging.

​

Refinishing Services: Restoring Timeless Elegance

• Assessment and Consultation: Our refinishing services begin with a thorough assessment of your stairs' condition. We'll consult with you about the desired outcome, be it reviving the original hue or updating the color to match recent renovations.

• Sanding to Perfection: We sand down the existing finish, revealing the bare wood beneath. This step also smooths out any imperfections, scratches, or dents that have accumulated over time.

• Custom Stain Application: Choose from a spectrum of stains to find the one that breathes new life into your staircase. Whether you’re looking for a light refresh or a dramatic change, we have the shades to suit your vision.

• Durable Top Coats: After staining, we apply multiple layers of topcoat for a finish that not only looks pristine but also offers enhanced protection against the wear and tear of daily use.
