Stairway

No we have not fallen off the face of the earth... just been too busy to take the time to blog....

From previous posts, you know that Rod is doing the trim work in the house. One item that a trim carpenter normally would do is the stairways. We decided that Rod didn't have the time to learn how to do it right, so we paid a man named Jeff Hill to come do the interior steps. We had already bought all the supplies from 31W Trim and had it all ready. We bought oak treads and the balusters we did a pattern of two double twists and then 1 basket. To install all of this Jeff charged us $1300 to do these steps. It was hard work and his helper didn't show up! We are very pleased with the job and how the steps look. Now we only need to sand them and stain them when the hardwood gets placed down.
