Stair Renovation — Modernization work

Category: Modernization work

Visual and functional renewal of an existing staircase.

Stair renovation refers to renewing an existing staircase without complete reconstruction. The most common method is the overlay: new treads of solid timber, laminate or vinyl are applied over the existing old treads. The renovation is often supplemented by new risers, stringer cladding, nosing profiles and a modernised railing. A professional stair renovation transforms a worn, unsightly staircase into as-new condition in just a few days — at significantly lower cost than a new build.
