Stair & Railing Work for Northbrook, Illinois homes
A staircase is the one piece of carpentry in the house that people put their weight on every day. It has to be tight, and it has to stay tight.
Northbrook is mostly post-war split-levels and ranches, where the work is upgrading builder trim, finishing basements and fixing stair transitions. Whichever it turns out to be, the carpenter who prices your Northbrook job is the one who shows up to do it.
We replace treads and risers, swap wood balusters for iron, rebuild handrail runs, and fix the squeaks and loose posts on stairs that are otherwise fine.

Common questions
Stair & Railing Work in Northbrook, answered
Do you do stair & railing work in Northbrook?
Yes. Northbrook is inside our regular service area and we work there every month. Call (224) 944-8652 and we'll set a time to look at the job and put a written price on it.
Can you swap wood balusters for iron without rebuilding the stairs?
Usually yes. The existing treads and handrail stay; the wood spindles come out and iron balusters get set into the tread and rail. It's one of the bigger visual changes you can make to a staircase for the money.
How much does it cost?
Every job is priced after we see the actual space, so you get a real number rather than a range. The estimate is free, it's in writing, and the scope is spelled out before any work starts.
