Refinishing The Stairs

Oh how I have a love hate relationship with these stairs. I love how they look {now}, but my lazy butt hates having to walk up and down them to get to our room. Yes, sometimes I am too lazy and decide that whatever up there isn’t worth the trip. Sad but true! We have known since we moved in though that the stairs needed a little TLC. Here is how the very first started out as:

They were a lovely shade of poop carpet, too shallow, and the stain was a cherry red. All things not good. We had our favorite floor installer come in and fully replace the steps and match them to our hardwoods everywhere else. Then J and I sanded, stained, and painted the rest. Well, if you were to try and get some customized wooden staircases for your home, you could avail yourself of services similar to bespoke staircase Hertfordshire (or others in your vicinity) to give your house a renovated look! Staircases are not only a means of moving between levels, but they can assist partition or break up a big open-plan area, or can be a creative storage option with in-built cupboards beneath the stairs! IT can also work as a home’s sculptural centerpiece! Opting for a bespoke staircase option could thus, be a good choice for you if you are looking to give your home a new feel and look!

I am constantly amazed by what a little paint and stain can do to an area. The poly-sealer they used on the rails was insanely thick, so sanding it down left quite a dusty mess…but it was all worth it!

Have you done any project face-lifts lately?
