Beautiful new stairs

We had our stairs renovated by Ideal Stairs. They replaced the carpet with hardwood and wooden balusters with iron balusters. While this was happening, we also had the carpet on our 2nd floor replaced with hardwood by another contractor. Ideal Stairs worked closely with our flooring contractor, ensuring a seamless work schedule. The crew was always careful and professional, and made sure their work areas were cleaned before leaving our house at the end of their work days. Ideal Stairs promptly answered any questions we had and addressed the few issues we raised to our satisfaction. We are very pleased with our new stairs which have vastly improved the look of our house.

I highly recommend Ideal Stairs for their stair replacement service. From start to finish, their service was very professional. The team was skilled and attentive to detail. The project began promptly and was finished in a timely manner. Rajan communicated with me daily as to the status of the work and the schedule of the team. I couldnt be happier with the results!

refacing of stairs and railings

Mesh and his crew were a pleasure to work with. Always on time. Calling days ahead to let us know the schedule for the upcoming week. Very accommodating when schedules didn't coincide. We have a big dog so we were scheduling people to be at the house when the crew was there. The crew worked very diligently for long hours. They were not taking long breaks and disappearing like some other trades people we have had work at the house in the past. We would definitely recommend Ideal Stairs for any stair work you may need

Staircase renovation

The team at Ideal Stairs were fantastic to work with. We had them completely replace our staircase. They were flexible and thorough, cleaning up nicely after each day and matching the flooring we had. Communication was great and the work was completed in a good time frame. Would definitely work with them again in the future!

Staircase Renovation

Mesh, Rajan and the team at Ideal Stairs refinished two flights of stairs in our home this past spring. This included custom oak treads stained to match our hardwood floors, new risers, stringers, spindles, a planters ledge and restained our existing banister.

We had high expectations and they delivered. They exemplify "measure twice cut once". Their work is amazing.

I would definitely recommend Ideal Stairs to anyone planning to do any renovations to their stairs.

Installation of basement stairs and banister

Ideal Stairs did an amazing job. I had a carpeted staircase with no banister. Now I have beautiful wooden stairs with a matching banister. Kudos to Mesh, Rajan and the team, I couldn't be happier and would highly recommend them.

Installed railing on flight of stairs

Ideal Stairs installed a railing on an existing flight of stairs. They stained the railing to try to match the stain on an existing railing. The stain match is very close. They selected the new railing to match the design/style of the existing railing (which was installed 7 years ago) and achieved a good match. The work was done in a few hours and the job site was left clean. Time from requesting quote to finishing job was just over 1.5 weeks.

PRODUCTS
[.::STAIRCASES::.] Our core business is fine woodworking. We custom manufacture all elements related to the staircase industry. We make posts, treads (steps), balustrades (spindles or pickets), handrails as well as entire staircases made only from red oak. Combining the custom manufacturing facility along with skilled installation crews allow us to renovate your staircase in approximately 3-5 days. Visit our website www.idealstairs.ca to view our Testimonials, and listen to very satisfied clients who have generously allowed us to record their successful renovation in their own words. [.::FLOORING - HARDWOOD AND LAMINATE::.] Staircase renovation is not our only product. We believe we are the only staircase manufacturer that will renovate your staircase AND install hardwood flooring. We want to minimize the time and disruption in your home by coordinating these two products. We are dealers for many brands of hardwood and laminate flooring but our proudest boast is we have hardwood flooring that is 25% and 100% Canadian content. We offer custom colours on your hardwood flooring (over 750 square feet) for Red Oak and Maple. We value our premium service by supplying and ensuring the colour you choose for your flooring is also used on the renovated staircase. [.::SANDING AND STAINING::.] If you already have a solid oak staircase but you want it changed to a different colour, we also provide sanding and re-staining services. We can transform your builder staircase into a dream staircase easily within your budget. While you are considering changing the colour of your staircase, this is an excellent time to change the appearance. Since we will be taking off the handrail, pickets and posts to sand and stain your steps, take the opportunity to install another post style, such as square, remodel your existing pickets and changing the look from old to new. For the record
