A damaged or poorly designed staircase that no longer meets minimum building codes can become a safety hazard. Updating it can increase safety, improve its style and function, and potentially increase the home’s property value.

If you want a full replacement of the entire staircase structure, consider hiring professionals to design and install. Replacing finishes like treads, railings and balusters is a project that many homeowners successfully tackle themselves.

The style you choose should reflect the overall architecture of your home. The most common material for stair treads and railings is natural wood stained in warm, medium-to-light tones. Balusters are available in many varieties and will give your staircase a style direction. Wood balusters either stained or painted are a classic traditional look while glass and metal designs lean more contemporary.
