Renovate or replace stairs: what is best for your home?

ReStair® renovation or stair replacement

When it comes to updating your home, the staircase is often a central part that may need to be renovated or completely replaced. The choice between renovating or changing the stairs depends on several factors such as budget, time and the style you want to achieve. Renovating or replacing stairs can seem daunting and unnecessarily expensive, but there are several benefits that are worth considering. With ReStair® stair renovation or a stair replacement, you get the opportunity to optimize the space in your home, refresh the look and choose a new design that suits your style.

The benefits of changing stairs

Replacing your stairs may seem daunting and unnecessarily expensive, but there are several benefits that are worth considering. At the same time, you can change the floor plan, which gives you the opportunity to optimize the space in your home. In addition, a staircase replacement facilitates painting and wallpapering around the stairs, which can give a fresher and more uniform look. You also get the opportunity to choose a staircase with a different design, which can renew the style of the entire home. A staircase replacement does not necessarily have to be much more expensive than a renovation, and it offers more choices, such as different types of wood. If you also want to change the railings, handrails and arch edge railings, it is often economically advantageous to look at a completely new staircase.

Renovate the stairs

For many who consider renovating their stairs, the appearance of the stairs is the main reason. The stairs may be worn after years of use or simply feel outdated. There may also be damage or functional problems, such as creaking noises and loose steps. Refurbishing an existing staircase can be a cost-effective option and is particularly suitable if the basic structure is solid but the surface is worn or outdated. A renovated staircase can look like new.

Renew your stairs with ReStair® stair renovation

With ReStair® stair renovation, it will be easy to make the stairs look like new again. This complete system offers unique advantages. ReStair® ensures that the stairs not only get a new and fresh look, but also meet all important functional and safety requirements.

ReStair® – simple and effective stair renovation
ReStair® is an innovative stair renovation system that makes it easy to give your stairs a new lease of life. The system is based on renovation steps that are 9 mm thick, which contributes to increased stability while being sandable. This means that you get the benefit of "two renovations in one" as the steps can be sanded and refinished as needed. The material is thick enough to reduce the risk of future problems, without being so thick that it creates uneven step heights or makes the steps look clunky.

Two types of wood – many combinations
ReStair® is offered in both oak and ash, two hard and durable types of wood. Oak has a slightly darker color that is excellent for both varnishing and oiling. Ash, with its lighter base tone, is particularly suitable for lasering in different shades. These variations provide many combination possibilities to adapt the stairs to your personal style and taste. ReStair® is also available untreated if you prefer to treat the wood yourself.

The handrails are designed to be easy to grip, increasing the safety and comfort of your stairs. They are supplied in standard lengths but can easily be cut to suit your specific needs. By adding wall guides and railings, you can reinforce the new feel and aesthetics of your staircase.
