Why have a staircase renovation done

Every time you go up or down the stairs, you don't get very happy with such a dreary sight. Are you tired of worn steps, flaking paint, frighteningly thick carpet or hideous half-moons? There is a way to give your staircase a whole new look without having to buy a new one: stair renovation. Staircase renovation involves adding a new staircase step over each existing step. Unfortunately, no two staircases are the same and so the new staircases have to be fitted to size over the existing ones. This is not only a very labour-intensive job, but also a very precise one.

What is involved in a stair renovation?

First of all, a choice will have to be made from the many possibilities. Not only in terms of material but also colour. The professional, which you can easily arrange via zoofy.nl, has a sample of the materials and colours. Covering the new stairs can be done with various types of wood, laminate, linoleum, PVC, concrete look or carpet. He or she will also inform you about all the (im)possibilities and costs of staircase renovation.

The pros and cons of a staircase renovation

The professional will advise you about the advantages and disadvantages of the different materials and their applicability and also about the costs of renovating your stairs.
This is an ideal opportunity to give your home a different or more modern look. Would you like to combine a concrete look with metal? Perhaps you will have LED lighting built into the steps, ideal in dark rooms? The banister and the bars can also be included in the stair renovation. They can be replaced by a different material and shape or even be removed. For inspiration take a look at upstairs stair renovation.

Before a staircase renovation can actually be started, materials such as stair mesh and carpeting have to be removed from the existing staircase. You can start this job yourself but it is often done by a professional in a much shorter time frame. This saves you a lot of time, mess and stress.
