Are a few of your stair treads worn or damaged, whilst the rest are still in good condition? You might be thinking about replacing the treads. However, this is often more involved than it seems. In many cases, a staircase renovation is a smarter, quicker and more sustainable alternative. We’ll explain why.

Is replacing stair treads a good idea?

Damaged or worn steps can be a nuisance, especially if your staircase is in the middle of your home. However, replacing individual steps is a major job.

 

The damaged steps of your wooden staircase need to be milled out, which creates a lot of dust and noise and carries a risk of damage. What’s more, it’s difficult to ensure that new steps match the existing wood or the colour of your staircase exactly. As a result, the finish often looks uneven, which detracts from your interior.

Why choose a staircase renovation?

A staircase renovation offers a more attractive and sustainable alternative. Instead of removing the old steps, our skilled craftsmen fit stair tread covers over your existing staircase. These are made entirely to measure and secured using our unique sound-absorbing foam adhesive.

 

A staircase renovation has many advantages:

  • No chopping or breaking
  • Completed within a day
  • No dust or mess in the house
  • Durable, safe and low-maintenance
  • A brand-new look

 

Our stair tread covers feature the Upstairs Original Top Layer – an exclusive finish that is scratch-resistant and non-slip. This ensures your stairs not only look great, but remain safe for everyday use.
