Posts, railing and spindles upgrade

Railings review in Pickering

We recelntly purchased a new home that unfortunately had poorly painted the railings and the spindles were extremely short which I felt was a safety hazard. I chose Ideal Stairs after reading reviews on HomeStars. I was not disappointed. They did an amazing job and the project was completed quicker than I had imagined. They removed our painted railing and completely sanded and refinished them. We also got new spindles and beautiful squared posts to update the look.
Ideal Stairs was very professional and had wonderful communication. The workers were very clean which was important to us as well. We are beyond happy with the way the new stairs turned out and would happily recommend them to anyone. Thanks to Mesh and his team for making this a pleasurable experience!

FANTASTIC SERVICE

Floor Laying & Refinishing review in Toronto

We are THRILLED with our new staircase and railing from Ideal Stairs. This is BY FAR the best customer service I have ever received from a company!! Their communication was perfect, and the end result is nothing short of spectacular! Our initial quote was incredibly detailed. The finished product was even better than we had imagined! The crew called each day to let us know what time they would be arriving. They were super efficient and cleaned up everything at the end of each day. Their work ethic and craftsmanship are second to none. Thank you to Mesh and Rajan and the entire crew. Our home looks beautiful. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this company to anyone!

Hardwood flooring and circular staircase

Floor Laying & Refinishing review in Georgina

We consulted with a number of companies to conduct the renovation before choosing Ideal Stairs. The design was to install a new curved staircase with iron and wood handrail as well as install hardwood in the hall and master bedroom. From the first point of contact with Mesh and up to the completion, it was an amazing experience. We were contacted every morning to explain the work for the day. Each evening we were asked if we were satified of the days work. It us refreshing to see such a confident and positive crew. Their competency was never an issue. They were able to match the colour of our existing hardwood floor without any difficulty. We are 100% satisfied with Ideal Stairs and would absolutely recommend their work.

Stair Refinishing and Hardwood Floor Installation

Floor Laying & Refinishing review in Toronto

We are thrilled with the work done by Rajan, Mesh and their team. They installed 2 hardwood floors and refinished 3 flights of stairs - in 9 days! The stain of the stairs is a perfect match to the hardwood, which had been a concern of ours. Our house looks very updated now. We highly recommend their work to everyone.

Stairs Railing Replacement (Main and 2nd floor)

Great workmanship! Would definitely recommend them to friends and family. Really like the fact that they finished the job as promised (less than a week) with great quality. We had the main floor and 2nd floor railings/pickets done as it needed an upgrade.

Hardwood floor installation & new stairs

Floor Laying & Refinishing review in Toronto

Ideal Stairs quickly replied to my message from Homestars and upon reading other reviews, I was confident in their ability to complete our project.

Mesh & Rajan stayed in good contact as our project was completed and were always reachable. The install team was friendly and most of all, did great work. I have no complaints and would without hesitation recommend them to friends & family, and will use their services again in the future.

Thanks again to the team!

Main floor stairs, basement stairs, 2nd floor hallway

Floor Laying & Refinishing review in Pickering

We are very happy with the service Ideal Stairs provided us. After receiving 3 quotes, their price was most reasonable. Comparing their price with the reviews they’ve received, we knew we were going with a reliable company. They started on the date that they said they would and finished within a week. They redid both sets of stairs but sanded our existing hand rail and stained it to match, which I am so happy with. The detail and craftsmanship is beautiful. See my before and after pictures below.

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!

Combining the custom manufacturing facility along with skilled installation crews allow us to renovate your staircase in approximately 3-5 days. Visit our website www.idealstairs.ca to view our Testimonials, and listen to very satisfied clients who have generously allowed us to record their successful renovation in their own words.

We believe we are the only staircase manufacturer that will renovate your staircase AND install hardwood flooring. We want to minimize the time and disruption in your home by coordinating these two products. We are dealers for many brands of hardwood and laminate flooring but our proudest boast is we have hardwood flooring that is 25% and 100% Canadian content. 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.

We can transform your builder staircase into a dream staircase easily within your budget. While you are considering changing the colour of your staircase, this is an excellent time to change the appearance. Since we will be taking off the handrail, pickets and posts to sand and stain your steps, take the opportunity to install another post style, such as square, remodel your existing pickets and changing the look from old to new.
