Project Overview
This project focused on replacing an aging exterior staircase with a safer, more durable, and lower-maintenance solution. The original pressure-treated wood stairs had begun to weather over time, and sections of the lattice skirting and framing required repairs before new materials could be installed.
The finished staircase features composite stair treads, white PVC railings, updated lattice skirting, and structural improvements beneath the deck. The result is a clean, attractive staircase designed to withstand New England weather while complementing the existing deck.
Project Highlights
- Structural stair framing repairs
- Composite stair tread installation
- White PVC railing system
- New lattice skirting installation
- Improved safety and durability
- Low-maintenance exterior finish
Job Description
The project began by removing the existing stair system and inspecting the framing beneath the deck. Damaged and weathered components were replaced as needed to create a solid foundation for the new staircase, while sections of the lattice enclosure were rebuilt to improve both appearance and support.
Once the structural work was complete, new composite stair treads and white PVC railings were installed to provide a durable, low-maintenance finish. Careful attention was given to the stair layout, railing alignment, and trim details, resulting in a staircase that improves accessibility, enhances curb appeal, and is built to provide years of reliable performance.
