Stairs

As critical yet overlooked infrastructure, stairs enable accessing homes' upper levels and basements safely. Yet over time, treads deteriorate, railings loosen, and visibility decreases – causing potential accidents.

As a leading Kenilworth, NJ carpenter for many years, J&J Elite Carpentry specializes in complete stair replacements, blending sturdy construction with aesthetics matching your interiors. Our company has built a strong reputation in the field, and we focus on providing our clients with the best services within their budgets.

We replace worn treads, secure loose balusters, and integrate lighting for enhanced home safety, function, and flow. Stairs also create powerful first impressions in commercial buildings while contending with heavy daily traffic from tenants, customers, and guests. Worn-out stair components portray neglect, while slick surfaces present liability risks and accessibility issues.

We construct customized commercial staircases using durable wood or metals paired with grip tape, contrasting nosings, and up-to-code railings. Our eye-catching stairs combine structural safety enhancements with stylish, modern finishes, and you can rely on our technical expertise and artistry for stair foundations built to impress and endure.

Common Stair Types

Understanding options helps you select systems that suit your needs and spaces, and we can provide:

Straight Stairs - As named, straight runs connecting floors linearly save space but tend to feel steep without landing breaks.

Switchback Stairs - With 90-degree turns allowing gradual ascents, this classic staircase works in tight footprints and homes that don't need more extensive understair storage.

Spiral Stairs - Compact circular stairs save room yet only accommodate 1-direction traffic but have a small footprint and work well in specific settings.

Curved Stairs - Graceful rounded profiles make artistic statements in open-concept homes and require expert layouts accommodating enough foot width.

Custom Stair Design and Installation

After assessing your current space and layout, we will suggest new installations of replacements (per requirement) optimized for safety, storage, and style priorities. We use our creativity and design expertise to collaborate on railing design, finishes, lighting, and other details so you know the results before starting construction.

We precision-build staircases in our shop, facilitating quality control. Our staircases integrate functionality with aesthetics. Some things we focus on include:

Safety – Code-compliant components sized for anticipated usage include slip-resistant treads, beefy stringers, and strong balustrades that passed rigorous stress testing. Proper lighting illuminates each step.

Storage – Box steps incorporate discreet drawers while keeping an elegant appearance if more functional space is desired.

Seating – Wider lower stairs allow built-in bench seating for putting on shoes flowing with railing lines.

Style - Open risers, multi-tier rails, accent lighting, wood species, colors, and more customizable elements make stairs focal features.
