Featured project · Woodbridge
Dark-stained stairs with white risers and new metal spindles
This whole-home project combined new flooring and painting with dark stair refinishing, white risers and stringers, and new posts and metal spindles.
What was there before
The original staircase had warm wood treads, risers and wood spindles. We retained its layout while changing it to dark treads, white risers and black metal spindles.
What remained
The original staircase layout remained while the surrounding flooring and painting were renewed.
Work completed
Stairs were refinished dark, the risers and stringers finished white, and new posts and metal spindles installed.
Planning the work
The stair colour was coordinated with new floors during the wider home renovation. Dark treads, white risers and new metal spindles carry that palette from the staircase into the surrounding rooms.
The result
Dark treads and posts contrast with the white vertical surfaces and carry the new floor colour into the staircase.

FAQ
Planning stair work in Woodbridge
Can I keep my Woodbridge stair layout while updating the finishes?
The main project retained its layout while changing the tread finish, risers, stringers, posts and spindles. Photos of the whole flight and landing help identify what you want to preserve; the wood condition and connections still require assessment.
Do risers have to be white?
No. The main project has white risers, while a separate Woodbridge staircase has treads, risers and stringers finished in one dark-brown colour. Consider both treatments beside your floor and wall finishes before specifying the scope.
How can the upstairs floor and staircase be coordinated?
In another Woodbridge project, we coordinated the stair stain with hardwood installed through the house. Include the upper balcony or landing in your photographs and share the chosen floor material when discussing samples.
Can I compare panel balusters with a simpler pattern?
The Woodbridge views include larger panels and a W-design accent separated by plain balusters. Compare the pattern across the complete landing and stair run, with post spacing and available components confirmed before installation.
For an initial review, include your city or postal-code area, tread and riser count, landing details and the finish you want.
