Stair refinishing and hardwood installation

Floor Laying & Refinishing review in Ajax

I wanted to replace the carpet in my home with hardwood as well as refinish my carpeted stairs with hardwood. I did the quotation process with Mesh via email and he was very helpful throughout the process. I provided my idea and Mesh was able to translate my vision into requirements for the job. Mesh was very patient and supportive throughout the process as we coordinated with my painter to get my entire project completed.

As we began the project, I was able to check in with both Mesh who was my main contact as well as the lead installer. I was always kept in the loop as to what was going on and timelines. When I had questions about anything, both answered and addressed my concern . They were great!!!!

My friends and family have all commented how great the wood and stairs look!

I would happily recommend Ideal Stairs to anyone looking for a quality service and an honest contractor. Thanks so much for helping to bring my vision to life!

Replacement of stairs

Stair Builders review in Mississauga

After I had my stairs redone by a third party to my total dissatisfaction, I called Ideal Stairs to see if they could salvage what the third party had done. I sent Mesh a photograph of my stairs and asked him if he could recap them. He was kind enough to get back to me without delay and quoted me an acceptable figure. I was very pleased with his quote so I gave my approval for the project. He sent Rajan to obtain my written approval. Rajan told me he would be sending a team of two people to do the work. The team completed the entire job in about 4 days. I was absolutely satisfied with their performance and I was extremely pleased with the end result. I would recommend Ideal Stairs to anyone who wanted a job well done and on a scale of 1 to 10 I would have no hesitation in giving this company a ten!

Another Great Project with Ideal Stairs

Floor Laying & Refinishing review in Caledon

Ideal Stairs did our house last year (2017) so when I needed to get the same work done on our rental house I didn't hesitate to contact them. Mesh, Rajan, Kai, and the whole team were fantastic yet again. They have real craftsmanship, so any weird angles, curved walls, different flooring heights, etc are all taken into account when they work. The team was onsite on time every day of the job and they always cleaned up at the end of the day. Plastic sheets were used to minimize dust to other areas of the house. The project came in on time and on budget. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to family or friends.

Carpet to Wood Stair conversion with refinished railing and wrought iron pickets

Railings review in Oakville

Mesh, Rajan and their team at Ideal Stairs were a pleasure to work with. They gave us a competitive quote to convert our existing carpeted stairs to Oak, with a refinished handrail and new wrought iron pickets. The crew arrived as planned and completed the project in just over a week. They were careful to mask and seal off any areas where dust/debris could enter and tidied up at the end of each work day. The job turned out fantastic and we are very happy with how this has transformed the look of our home. We would highly recommend Ideal Stairs for any stair refinishing project.

stair renovation

Stair Builders review in Toronto

A great thanks to Mesh, Rajan and their team for doing a beautiful job on our stair renovation. Installation of new risers, treads, pickets, handrails, nosing and stringers went smoothly. Communication, timing, coordination, and attention to detail were great and as promised. Any deficiencies noted were fixed immediately. Clean up at the end of the day was good, and the guys protected other area's of the house from dust and debris. All in all a great experience and I would definitely recommend them for any stair renovation needs.

Customer Service Excellence

Whitby

Victoria and I hired Ideal Stairs to redo our old carpeted oak stairs and to replace 650 square feet of carpet on the main floor and upper landing area. We selected Ideal Stairs due to other reviews on HomeStars regarding their excellent customer service. If we could give them a 12 out of 10 we would! From start to finish they kept us informed of everything that was going on, when it would be done and what was to be worked on each day. The crew was very respectful, quiet and they cleaned up every evening before going home. The price was reasonable while the quality was excellent. Raj answered our many questions and the one or two minor issues were addressed immediately. We felt truly like the customer which these days can be very challenging. The job started on the day they said it would and finished one day early. We are so pleased with our new stairs and hardwood. See the before and after pictures. Thanks very much to Mesh, Rajan and their entire crew!!

We offer custom colours on your hardwood flooring (over 750 square feet) for Red Oak and Maple. We value our premium service by supplying and ensuring the colour you choose for your flooring is also used on the renovated staircase.
