OUR STAIRCASES

Eight staircase families. One that fits your home.

The same workshop answers a contractor closing in a frame and a homeowner replacing a flight from 1960. In both cases the layout follows from the stairwell, never from a photograph. These are the eight models we build in our own shop, each available in a classic or a contemporary style, and all shown under our staircases.

Straight hardwood staircase with a glass guard

Straight staircase

The most common layout. Simple, solid, and the least costly to build.

Winder staircase with radiating treads and a wood guard

Winder staircase

A quarter or a half turn, to save floor space without narrowing the treads.

Spiral staircase turning around a central post

Spiral staircase

When you need a way upstairs and there is very little floor to give.

Classic staircase with turned balusters and closed risers

Classic staircase

Closed risers and turned balusters. The warm, timeless choice.

Modern staircase with taut lines and an exposed stringer

Modern staircase

Exposed stringer and tempered glass. The change people notice first.

First treads of a Butcher Block staircase, hardwood strips glued on edge

Butcher Block

Thick hardwood treads glued on edge. The thickness is the whole point.

Central-stringer staircase in steel with a tempered glass railing

Central stringer

One steel beam down the middle, and treads that look like they float.

Luxury wooden staircase with wrought metalwork

Luxury staircase

Curves and wrought ironwork, for when the stair is the centrepiece.

METHOD

How it works, from the site visit to the install

Whether the order comes from a contractor or a homeowner, the sequence does not change. What changes is where we step into the site schedule.

01
We measure at your place

Finished floor to finished floor, the run available on the floor, the width of the opening. Nothing is drawn before that visit.

02
Drawing and quote

You get a dimensioned drawing and a firm price: layout, wood species, stain, railing infill. Nothing is cut until you approve it.

03
Built in our shop

Everything is made in Granby, in our own shop. Count six to eight weeks between the approved drawing and the install. We check the dimensions a second time once the stringers are laid out.

04
Installation and finish

Our own crew installs it, in one to three days. No subcontractor: the same people from start to finish.

custom staircases delivered and installed in Sherbrooke

We manufacture interior stairs in hardwood in our Montérégie workshop, and we install them ourselves in Sherbrooke and the surrounding area. The survey is done at your home, the machining and the finishing at the workshop, and it is the same team that comes back for the installation.

Distance changes the way we plan, not the way we work. We group the survey and decisions in a single visit, and then we arrive with a finished staircase, ready to be installed.It is precisely because the workshop is far away that nothing should be left pending on the day of installation.

  • Complete survey in one visit, petrol and railing stopped
  • Machining and finishing in the workshop, including hidden faces
  • Installation in one to three days depending on the chosen route
  • railing and handrail asked in the same intervention

What to stop before heading to the Estrie

The layout, the type of wood, the colour, the type of railing and the path to the cage – these five points are fixed to the survey and do not move. On a local site, a detail can be decided on the way; on a project in the Estrie, each additional round trip weighs on everyone’s schedule.

What remains adjustable on site is of a different order: the adjustment of the stringers against a wall that is never perfectly level, the fittings of handrail, the resuming of a few millimeters of play at the start or at the end.These are installation adjustments, not design decisions, and our team arrives equipped to deal with them the same day.

This clear separation between what is decided and what is adjusted allows us to keep a date of installation at a distance, so a staircase delivered in Estrie arrives in the same state of finish as a staircase installed ten minutes from the workshop.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What we are asked from the Estrie.

Are you travelling to Sherbrooke for a single staircase?

Yes, the on-site survey is not negotiable: floor to floor height, the opening of the stairwell opening and the clearances decide what is feasible at your home, and none of these measurements are taken over the phone or on an architect’s plan, which rarely reflects the cage as it was built. We simply arrange the visit so that we cover everything at once. quote.

Is the delay longer than in Montérégie?

No, because the main time is the manufacturing and finishing in the workshop, not the transportation. The typical lead time of six to eight weeks applies in the same way. Only the day of installation requires a little more coordination, since it is planned around a longer travel. We set it once the manufacturing has begun, never before.

Can we choose the essence and the shade remotely?

We prefer to leave staineds samples on site during the measurement, so you can look at them in the real light of your cage rather than on a screen. A hue is not judged in a photo: the grain of the wood and the lighting of the room completely change the rendering. stairs in hardwood.

Who lays the stairs once they arrive?

Our team, the same team that surveyed the cage and machined the parts, does not go through a local installer. This is what allows us to make up for the gaps that are not foreseen in any plan on site, because the person who adjusts already knows the part and knows why such a decision was made at the survey.

Do you also take over an existing staircase?

Yes, from sandblasting with refinition to the complete replacement of the fly. It is the condition of the stringers that decides the extent, and this can be seen on the survey, not on a photo. renovation of stairs.
