Staircase Work in Decatur Homes
Decatur sits just east of Atlanta with nearly identical housing character. Bungalows, craftsman homes, and mid-century ranches on tight lots are the norm — most built between 1920 and 1970, almost all with original hardwood hiding somewhere beneath decades of floor coverings.
Staircases are often the last thing homeowners address in a renovation — and the most visible thing left unfinished when they don't. In Decatur, we see the full range: stairs with worn carpet over original oak treads, formal staircases with dated balusters and handrails, and new-construction stairs with builder-grade components that don't match the rest of the home.
The most common job in Decatur is a carpet-to-hardwood conversion: removing the carpet runners to reveal the tread, patching any nail holes or damage, and refinishing to match the main floor. When done at the same time as a floor refinish, the whole home — floors and stairs — reads as one continuous surface.
Every estimate in Decatur is done in-home — we walk the floors, test the subfloor, and look at the specific conditions of your home before we quote. That means no surprises on project day and no scope creep. We tell you exactly what needs to be done and what it will cost, in writing, before any work begins.

Why Decatur Homeowners Choose Olivas
We've been working in Decatur and across Metro Atlanta long enough to understand what local homeowners actually care about: showing up when we say we will, doing the work right the first time, and leaving the home cleaner than we found it. That sounds basic — but it's what separates us from the contractors who disappear mid-project or leave dust on every surface.

That means consistent quality, direct accountability, and a crew that's done this exact type of work hundreds of times. When you call with a question, you're talking to the same people who did the work.

What a Staircase Renovation Looks Like
Here's exactly what happens from your first call to the final walkthrough — no guesswork, no vague timelines.
Assessment and removal. We inspect the existing treads — whether they're under carpet, painted, or already exposed — and give you an honest read on what's worth keeping vs. replacing. Carpet removal and tack strip removal is part of the job.
Tread work. If the existing treads are solid and thick enough, we sand and refinish them to match your floor stain and finish. If they need replacement (common in older homes with narrow or damaged treads), we install new solid oak or maple treads.
Baluster and handrail work. We replace dated wood or metal balusters, upgrade handrails, and refinish newel posts to match the overall look. Most homeowners upgrade from builder-grade dowel balusters to a cleaner craftsman or square-profile baluster at the same time.
Combining a staircase renovation with floor work? Most Decatur homeowners do both in one project so we can match stains perfectly. Ask about hardwood floor refinishing in Decatur or new hardwood installation in Decatur when you call.
