After

A rental landlord in The Kingsway was turning over a legal basement suite and wanted a durable, affordable staircase upgrade. The pine treads had taken ten years of heavy traffic and painted-over nail holes.

## The scope

We flattened the existing treads and risers, installed warm oak-look vinyl capping with a bullnose edge, and finished with matching trim. Scope was $2,800 within our $2,400-$3,200 quoted range.

## Timeline

Two days on site. Day one: template and prep. Day two: cap install and trim.
