ANDOVER & THE TWIN CITIES
Give your staircase a fresh look with carefully fitted treads, risers, and finishing details. Pro Floors Inc. installs Cap-A-Tread and hardwood stair surfaces, helping you coordinate your steps with the flooring throughout your home.
Carpet removal, material choices, and stair installation, planned together.
STAIR REMODELING, MADE PERSONAL
Your staircase joins the rooms you use every day. Updating the treads and risers can help tie an entryway, living room, hallway, and upper landing together. We review the existing stairs and nearby flooring before recommending a material and finish.
The tread is the horizontal surface you step on. The riser is the vertical face between steps. Planning both together gives you a clearer picture of the finished staircase.
Cap-A-Tread is a stair renewal system designed to cover compatible existing steps. Its tread cover includes a rounded front edge, with options that coordinate with laminate and vinyl flooring. We check the existing tread dimensions, product profile, and available color before ordering. A coordinating appearance does not mean the tread has the same construction or water-resistance rating as your floor.
Hardwood stair treads bring real wood grain and character to a staircase. We discuss the wood, finish, nosing, and connection to surrounding floors as part of the plan. If your project also includes hardwood flooring installation, coordinating those decisions early helps the stairs and rooms feel like one complete project.
White risers create a crisp contrast with wood or wood-look treads. Coordinating risers can give the staircase a more continuous appearance when available for your selected product. We also review exposed sides, trim, and the top landing. Color availability and the shape of your staircase help determine the options.
FROM CARPETED STAIRS TO A NEW LOOK
Removing the old covering reveals what the new stair surfaces will sit on. Carpet, padding, tack strips, staples, and debris need to be addressed before the selected tread system is fitted. We review the exposed steps and discuss any repair or preparation needs.
Each step deserves its own measurements. Width, depth, existing nosing, and the fit against the sides can vary along the same flight. The upper landing and bottom step also need attention because they connect the staircase with the adjoining floors.
The project shown here pairs brown wood-look treads with white risers. The photo above shows the new tread and riser surfaces installed, with surrounding trim work still in progress. This gives you a view of the work at two stages.
OUR INSTALLATION PROCESS
Stair projects involve more than counting steps. We plan materials, preparation, and finishing together so the estimate reflects your actual staircase.
We review the stair layout, existing covering, landings, exposed edges, and your preferred finish. Photos and a flooring product name are helpful starting points. On-site measurements let us confirm the materials, quantities, and work included in your estimate.
We remove the agreed existing materials, assess the surface, and measure and fit the new components. Installation follows the selected system’s requirements. Any newly discovered preparation needs are discussed before additional work proceeds.
We finish the agreed risers, edges, trim, and transitions, then review the installation with you. We also explain when the stairs can be used and how to care for the selected materials, including any adhesive curing time.
PLAN YOUR STAIR UPGRADE
From replacing carpet to choosing riser colors, these details help you plan a stair remodeling project with fewer surprises.
Yes. We can include carpet and padding removal, disposal, preparation, and new tread and riser installation in your estimate. The existing stair condition and selected product determine the preparation needed. Let us know whether the adjoining hallway or landing is also part of your project.
We can help look for a coordinating stair product. Share the flooring brand, collection, color name, and a sample or photo if available. Exact matches are not always offered, especially for discontinued floors. We’ll review the closest suitable option before you commit to materials.
We can discuss both looks. White risers provide contrast, while coordinating risers depend on the product and color available. Some kits include a reversible riser; others have separate components. We confirm the specific material and finish when planning your order.
These details are reviewed during the estimate. A landing may need flooring and a coordinating stair nose, while an exposed side may need a return or other finishing piece. We confirm how the selected system fits your staircase and how the top step meets the adjacent floor.
The estimate depends on the number and size of steps, material choice, existing covering, preparation, landings, exposed sides, and trim. A straight flight and a staircase with turns may require different amounts of work. Send photos and your location, and request a free in-home estimate for a clear project scope.
The schedule depends on material availability, the staircase, and the preparation and finishing included. Access may be restricted while work is underway and while adhesives cure. We’ll discuss timing and access before the project starts so your household can plan around the work.
Yes. Planning the stairs with vinyl plank, laminate, or hardwood installation lets us consider colors, floor heights, and transitions together. If you prefer to keep a softer surface on the stairs, ask about our carpet and stair runner installation options.
Pro Floors Inc. offers free in-home estimates, free material delivery, and a 2-year labor warranty. We’ll confirm your materials and installation scope in the estimate. Manufacturer product warranties are separate and depend on the material you choose.
Based in Andover, Pro Floors Inc. installs stair treads and risers across the Twin Cities, including Blaine, Ham Lake, Coon Rapids, Maple Grove, and Plymouth. Tell us how many steps you have, share a few photos, and let us know the flooring you want to coordinate with.
