A licensed general contractor or a carpenter specializing in stair installations typically handles staircase remodels. These professionals manage everything from design planning and material selection to installation, ensuring your new staircase meets all safety standards and building codes. Working with a professional also helps the project stay within your budget.
Building a new staircase usually takes from a few days to a few weeks, depending on the design's complexity, material availability, and whether an old staircase needs to be removed first. Simple designs like straight staircases are quicker to install, while curved or custom designs may require more time for precise craftsmanship.
