Southern Utah Stair Repair

Stairs are often an overlooked area of a southern Utah home when it’s cleaning time and ignored more frequently when it comes time for repairs. Creaking, bowing, and separating in between walls and stairs are all items that should be treated as concern and fixed immediately. Creaking staircases are often seen as a nuisance when they could be the sign of loosening seams which can lead to potentially dangerous situations.  Stairs that bow in the middle may be caused from wood that is damaged by either moisture or exceeding the stairs allowed weight capacity. Use care when using liquids around the staircase and check your stairs thoroughly, especially after using the stairs as a path for moving heavy furniture or other objects. Inspecting the seams between the walls and your stairs in vital in maintaining the integrity and strength of your staircase. Stairs that start to separate from the walls pose a risk of collapsing.
