    Staircase Painting

    Quick answer

    Can I still use the stairs while you're painting?

    Yes — we work in halves and stagger drying times so there's always a usable side, or finish each evening with the stair fully walkable.

    Staircases take more punishment than any other painted surface in the house. We hand-strip flaking paint, fill, sand, prime and finish spindles, handrails, strings, risers and treads using durable systems built for high-traffic areas. Two-tone schemes, painted treads with stained handrails, and full traditional white-and-natural-wood looks are all routine work.
