Original Guildwood staircase with turned builder-grade newel post
Before
Finished Guildwood staircase with modern square newel post in stained walnut
After

A Guildwood homeowner wanted a modern update to their staircase without a full renovation. The turned builder-grade newel post looked dated, and the matching turned balusters pushed them further.

The scope

We removed the newel post and handrail, installed a modern square newel post in stained walnut, and ran a continuous walnut handrail across the landing. Balusters stayed. Scope was $2,400 within our $2,000-$2,800 range.

Timeline

Two days on site. Day one: remove and prep. Day two: install new newel + handrail + stain.
