Wooden Prefabricated Stairs

Wooden prefabricated stairs are available locally and their use can easily equate into a savings of 30 - 40 percent. Whether you're building track, duplex, multi - family, or custom homes a design or style is available to fit your needs. One of the more complex and expensive carpentry tasks faced by all builders is the stair building process.

Just to construct a straight set of stairs with no finish stringer and carpeted stair treads requires over 275 circular saw cuts. For a carpenter to figure out the rise, run, layout, cut the stringers, risers, treads, and install the stair components can easily take 4 hours.
