The "Stair Experts" Difference
Stairs and stairways are specialized and often complex and intricate structures. It is important that the designers, craftsmen and installers who design, build, maintain and repair them are familiar with the specialized techniques used in their construction. It's not enough to simply retain a general carpenter or someone who is handy with a hammer and nails to make repairs or build new stairs. Safety and durability are paramount, and North Shore Stairs has the personnel and experience to build and repair stairs that will meet our own high standards and the building code requirements in each area that we work.
