Hardwood stair installation across the Tampa Bay Area
Stairs take more daily abuse than almost any other surface in a two-story home, and in a lot of Pinellas Park and New Port Richey houses they're also the first thing a guest sees walking in. Pro Vinyl Flooring handles the whole job in one trip: removing whatever's there now, leveling the stringers, custom-fitting nosings, and finishing with a low-VOC sealer that's ready for foot traffic within a day or two.
Because Zach's crew are employees and not subcontractors, the same two or three people are on the job from demo through the final coat - which matters on stairs, where fit-and-finish is the whole game.

Solid or engineered treads - it depends on what's below
Solid oak or hickory treads are the traditional choice and sand down beautifully over the years. Engineered treads are the better fit when you're matching an existing engineered floor, or when the stair structure itself sits on or near a concrete landing - they're dimensionally stable and less prone to the seasonal creak solid wood can develop.
- Red oak, white oak, hickory, and maple treads in stock
- Custom stains color-matched to your existing floor with free sample boards
- Open-end, boxed, and curved staircases
- Nosings custom-milled in-house when a manufacturer doesn't carry a matching profile

How the job actually goes
Day one is demo and prep - removing whatever's currently on the stairs, checking the stringers for movement, and shimming anything loose so the new staircase doesn't announce itself with a creak. Day two is installing treads, risers, and nosings with construction adhesive and finish nails, no visible fasteners. Day three is stain (when requested) and finish coats.

Matching your stairs to the rest of the floor
Most homeowners want the staircase to read as a continuation of the room it connects to, not a separate project bolted on afterward. We work from the same stain batch used on your hardwood or engineered hardwood flooring and the same sheen, so the transition disappears. If you'd rather go with a deliberate contrast - dark treads with painted white risers is popular right now - we'll mock that up on a sample board before ordering anything.

Hardwood stair pricing in the Tampa Bay Area
Most homes have 13-16 stairs. Pricing below is per stair, materials and labor included, quoted as a fixed total after your free in-home measure.
| Option | Typical price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Red oak treads and risers, clear finish | $190 - $240 per stair | Most popular option |
| White oak or maple treads, stained | $220 - $280 per stair | Color-matched to your existing floor |
| Engineered hardwood treads | $200 - $255 per stair | Best when matching a slab-set engineered floor |
| Hickory treads | $250 - $325 per stair | Premium, high-traffic species |
Final price depends on stair count, stringer condition, and stain choice. We quote the full job on the spot after measuring in person.
Hardwood Stairs - frequently asked questions
In most cases, yes. We strip whatever's currently on the stairs down to the treads, inspect them, and go from there. Solid treads in good shape get built on directly; damaged or particleboard treads get replaced as part of the job.
A standard 14-stair job runs 2 to 3 days start to finish - demo, install, then finish coats. You can use the stairs the next morning, with full cure in about a week.
That's the goal on most jobs. We bring stain samples to your home and brush them onto a piece of the same wood species before you commit, so you're seeing the actual color on actual wood.
Our own crew handles it start to finish. Stairs are detail-heavy work, and we'd rather have the people who install your floors also cut and finish your treads.
