Lived-in Decatur houses are why we run advanced, virtually dustless containment. Stairs sit in the middle of the home. Extraction keeps dust out of the air, ductwork, and furniture while we pull carpet, fit treads, and finish rails.
If the adjoining floors are original strip oak, the stair stain is sampled on those boards so the hall does not look like two contractors. Hartselle is on the same Morgan County route if that is closer.

Custom staircase installation in Decatur
When a Decatur addition or a ruined layout needs a new interior stair, Rocket City Stairs builds it as millwork: solid hardwood treads and risers, skirt boards cut to the wall, newels, and a wood or wood-and-matte-black metal rail finished to the adjoining oak. If the existing stringer is sound, a remodel or makeover is usually the better job — we say so on the free on-site estimate. We do not fabricate outdoor steel stairs.
Interior staircase railings in Decatur
Interior staircase railings in Decatur are quoted as millwork, not a welded outdoor package. A typical Decatur rail is a wood handrail on square newels, with wood balusters, matte black metal balusters, or a mix — fitted to an interior hardwood stair. We set newels plumb, run a continuous handrail that follows the pitch, and space balusters so the guard meets typical residential interior requirements. Exact height and spacing are confirmed on the written estimate at the house; this page is not a code manual. We do not do outdoor steel stairs, deck rails, or commercial metal fabrication. If a Decatur search for railings lands on a metal shop, that is a different trade. Our rail work is the interior guard on a hardwood stair: oak or painted newels, a wood cap, and balusters that belong with the treads. Carpeted stairs and a new rail can be one job. If the stringer is sound, we pull the carpet, install solid treads and risers, and set the rail in the same visit so you are not coordinating two contractors. Hartselle is on the same Morgan County route. Call (256) 665-2161 for a free on-site written estimate.
