Remodeling A Staircase
Jessica and Tom with @2540Loveandco have been in the process of renovating their entire home, and with that also came the renovation of their outdated staircase. Knowing this would be a large undertaking, the couple reached out to L.J. Smith for some guidance. Check out all of their project details below.
The Plan
“Since purchasing our home last fall, we knew one of the first things we wanted to tackle is the stairs. The dark basket style iron balusters, and red oak treads, handrail and posts are just a little too formal for me. Our goal is to lighten up and comfy up this house and if we want that vibe, the stairs have to go.”
While she knew she wanted to change up the entire style of the staircase, Jessica had a difficult time choosing the exact style to go with and found herself in a rabbit hole of ideas. She eventually took to Instagram to poll her options, and eventually decided on post to post instead of over the post, and a mix of black painted wooden balusters, black painted posts, and natural white oak handrail.
Products Used
“We worked with L.J. Smith Stair Systems on all the stair parts and I am impressed with the quality, communication, speed of delivery, and helpfulness through the process. There are so many choices to make when redesigning stairs and L.J. Smith made sure to talk through all of them with me, answering all of my questions along the way.”
Finished Space
The space isn’t quite finished yet, but as they work to complete the rest of the entryway there will be plenty more photos to share.
“To be able to customize our stairs exactly to our liking could have been complicated and tedious, but it was simple because of L. J. Smith. They patiently answered every question as we made up our minds about all of the details.”
