Richmond Flooring Installation For Stairs From Top Industry Professionals


If you’ve started or are considering a home renovation, you’ve probably thought about the big things; a kitchen remodel, maybe a bathroom update. But have you considered giving your home a facelift by getting your stairs redone?

The staircase is often one of a home’s most prominent architectural features. Having an outdated or worn down staircase can take away from a home’s updated features and even deter potential homebuyers. A staircase remodel can instantly lift the appearance and aesthetics of your home. A well-maintained staircase is also an important part of keeping your home safe, as worn steps or loose parts can become dangerous.

Why Remodel Your Stairs During
Renovation?

Stairs are a beautiful architectural piece in your home, but there are many other reasons it’s a good idea to keep them updated. Whether it’s a full-scale remodel to match a home’s new look or just a new set of treads and risers, keeping your stairs in good shape is good practice as a homeowner.

  • Safety: A staircase is one of the highest traffic areas in a home, and as they become worn down over time, they can quickly become a safety hazard. Old stairs can become loose as the foundation settles, and wood stairs that aren’t maintained can become slippery. Loose holds or wobbly steps can also be dangerous. Well-kept stairs are less likely to lead to a fall, slip or other accident.
  • Home Value: In addition to making a home safe, an updated staircase is an important contributor to a home’s value. Scuffed or worn risers, broken spindles or steps that need to be refinished can lower home value.
  • Appeal: Along with increased home value, a beautiful staircase also has increased buyer appeal. If the staircase doesn’t match the rest of the home, it can be a drawback.

What is Stone Flooring?

Stone flooring may be a good choice for those who prefer an earthy feel. One can choose from many stone flooring types, including limestone, travertine, granite, marble and slate. The characteristics of those options will vary with each choice.

Limestone


Limestone flooring is a type of stone flooring that can be found in many modern-day residences. This type of stone flooring is not only popular, but also has many benefits. Limestone floors are one of the most durable types of materials due to their tough and heavy characteristics.

Limestone floors can hold up against scratches and spills, which means they do not need to be refinished as often as other materials.

Travertine


Travertine flooring is made of limestone that has been compacted and cemented together. Travertine comes in various colors, from tan, to brown, to black, each with unique characteristics.

Travertine can be challenging to install on your own due to the weight of the stone and the fact that it may not adhere if not correctly pressed down onto a surface. Travertine flooring will have a natural feel, as all the color variations come from natural impurities in the stone's formation.

Granite


Granite is an igneous rock that has formed over millions of years by the cooling and solidifying magma below Earth's surface. It is one of the hardest natural materials known to man. Granite's physical characteristics make it preferable for flooring as it has a uniform grain and texture, making each slab naturally easy to split into slabs.

The uniformity of granite also means that there are rarely any surprises with the final product because every piece will look similar to its neighbors.

Granite flooring is resistant to heat, water, scratches and stains, making it great for kitchens and bathrooms where spills are common. It is also very durable, so the stone can be used in areas with heavy traffic such as hallways or foyers without wearing down or becoming damaged easily. The surface of granite has a low porosity which makes it resistant to dirt buildup.

Marble


Marble is a metamorphic rock of mineral aggregate, with variable hardness and a high natural polish. It can be used as a cheaper alternative to granite flooring.

Marble slabs are generally more economical than granite slabs. Although marble slabs have a glossy appearance, they may have a slight sheen or texture that makes them less desirable for high-traffic areas at first glance. Still, marble slabs offer many of the same benefits as granite slabs with less expense involved.

Slate


Slate flooring is a type of stone that is found in metamorphic rocks. Slate is mined from the earth and then worked to create versatile flooring options for different applications. Slate can be polished to have a high sheen, matte finish — or somewhere in between. There are also textured slates available for those who want a more rustic look without the additional cost of installation.

What Does a Stair Remodel Involve?


Choosing to remodel your staircase can be a small or large project, depending on how much work and how many things you want to change. From wood stairs to carpeting and railings, each part of the staircase can be renovated or repaired. Remodeling possibilities include:

Handrails

Whether the railings are loose, worn or just don’t fit your interior style anymore, these can all be tightened or replaced.

Newel Posts

These are the posts that hold up railings. If they are loose or broken, it can affect the whole handrail.

Balusters

Balusters are the decorative parts of handrails. Iron and wood are the most popular options for these. If you choose to replace your treads, you’ll also have to replace the balusters.

Treads and Risers

Treads and risers are the actual “steps” of a staircase, and may need to be replaced if they are wobbly or worn down.

What Our Customers Say

Scott from Footprints Floors Richmond came out to our home to estimate a tiling job. This company was timely, knowledgeable, and had a great deal of integrity! We would highly recommend.
Sharon Sheffield 07/7/25 — google
Definitely recommend Footprints Floors as THE hardwood floor installer for RVA. The workers were most professional and hardworking, and Scott and Terrance were absolutely wonderful from the initial quote to managing the entire project from beginning to end. Look forward to working with you all again to replace the second floor of our home!
Cindy Kirschke 07/3/25 — google
My house was built in 1900 and some areas of my floors (original wood floor) were causing me concern. Had some boards that were cracking and a bit loose. Scott met with me and explained that the concerns were cosmetic and/or could be fixed with minor repairs I could do myself. He was professional, knowledgeable, and most importantly, didn’t try to sell me something I didn’t need. Highly recommend.
Kyle Roberts 07/1/25 — google
Very friendly, efficient, and collaborative process. I worked with Scott and Terrence who were both great. Terrence and his team completed the project while I was away; they were respectful of my property and the few items that were inside the house. I never once worried about the fact that they were there when I was out of town. Terrence called and texted me daily with updates. Regarding the work, I opted for a water-based natural finish with amberizer. The floors look terrific! There were rough spots that they got out via sanding that I did not think would come out. They also removed an odd built-in in a bedroom that the previous owner installed, allowing the team to create an evenly textured floor in the entire room. Very impressed. Highly recommend. I know that it is a lot of money to spend, but it is worth it to have a clean, new look in your home. Be sure to follow all of Scott’s tips for caring for the floors to avoid damage over time.

Footprints did an excellent and quick job installing my flooring.
Susan Hill 06/22/25 — google
Company was easy to work with from beginning to end. We were replacing old carpet with laminate flooring. The crew was fast, polite and cleaned up after. Would recommend them to anyone looking for floor installation.
david williams 06/19/25 — google
Scott came out to look at a section of floor that was cupping—shot really straight, gave me some suggestions to remedy the issue before resorting to a whole refinish, and said he’d be happy to help when the other moisture variables were accounted for and we were ready to refinish the whole floor. I’ll definitely be calling them back when we’re ready. Integrity matters and these guys have it.
Larry Liebler 05/13/25 — google
I had a great experience with this company. Scott was very pleasant, professional, and reasonably priced. He scheduled my appointment for the following week after receiving my free estimate. The workers arrived promptly at 8am as scheduled and completed the job a lot sooner than anticipated. I am in love with my new floors! Footprints has gained a new customer!
Lauren Williams 04/18/25 — google
We have a sixties rancher with oak floors which were refinished by Terrence and his team using a neutral stain and 2 coats of oil based polyurethane. The floor looks fantastic. Completely satisfied.
Doug Park 04/18/25 — google
Excellent from first point of contact to completion of the project. Professional, effective communication, efficient execution and quality workmanship. I highly recommend.
James McDonald 04/11/25 — google
We have used Scott and his team for two projects on our house and have been so happy with the result. They are easy to work with, communicative, well-priced, with high quality results. Scott is extremely kind and knowledgeable and we will definitely be calling him for future projects.
Sarah Maddox 03/29/25 — google
Outstanding company and attention to details. Footprints blended new hardwood into the original rooms and it all looks like it was laid the same time. Use Footrints!
Dave Anderson 03/27/25 — google
Footprints Floors were great to work with great customer service and the floors turned out great! Highly recommended!
James Bierlein 03/27/25 — google
There were issues with regard to project management on our engagement. Scott was contrite, transparent, and remedied the said issues. He went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. We couldn’t be more pleased with the final product.
Matthew K 03/22/25 — google
We had our hardwood floors refinished and luxury vinyl put down in one room and we are very happy with the final result. Their prices were also comparable to other quotes we received. I would highly recommend them for any flooring needs.
Darcy Loveland 03/10/25 — google
Scott and Footprints Floors not only did amazing work at our storefront, but they were so incredibly patient while we took our time deciding on timing for our flooring replacement. They were fast and efficient with scheduling, and the work done looks excellent. Scott is a wonderful communicator and kept me in the loop at all points of the job. I really appreciate the work you guys did, thank you again! I highly recommend!
Monica Croxton 03/6/25 — google
Footprints refinished a 70+ year old floor in one of our federal housing units. It was absolutely destroyed from glued carpet and years of neglect. It turned out amazing. Scott was extremely helpful during the initial assessment and very knowledgeable in restoration. Scott and Foorprints were the only ones willing to take on this job. 10/10 I would highly recommend this company to anyone. D Marti, National Park Service.
dan marti 01/13/25 — google
Footprints Floor Richmond is a highly professional and personable flooring company. Scott explains their services, details the steps of the project, provides cost competitive quotes. Ken manages the projects effectively and ensures all goes well and the customer is totally happy with their work. They leave NO MESS!!! They totally clean up behind themselves. Over the past two years, Scott's team have replaced vinyl flooring in four of my bathrooms and laundry room. They just recently, November 2024, completed tiling work in my owner's bathroom renovation. They removed the old flooring, replaced with tile, did the baseboard trim, and tiled the walls/niche around the vanity with mother of pearl tile. It is absolutely gorgeous. I am totally satisfied. (Disregard the lighting in the picture. The new lights will be more modern and centered when they arrive. Obviously this is not within scope for Scott's team.) They will be back to lay hardwood floors in my downstairs level and to tile the backslash in my kitchen. I would definitely you recommend you give them a try.
Kaysaundra Shelton 12/15/24 — google
So very thankful I found Footprint Floors! I had 3 other prospects fall through & was seriously beginning to think I was never going to have this wood flooring installed. This is a GREAT company to do business with. Scott & his team are wonderful .They are professional, respectful, dependable & have GREAT customer service. Will definitely use them in the future for all my flooring jobs.
Anne Snelson 12/5/24 — google
Footprints was amazing! They provided a quick and professional installation of my new flooring. It’s been a few months and the flooring has been great. I’d highly recommend them!
