A damaged stairway cleaned up for market

The project story

Built around how the space needs to work.

This stairway had chipped edges, missing material, exposed fastener locations, and damaged decorative trim at every visible step. Because the homeowner was preparing to list the property, the goal was a focused make-ready repair that would photograph cleanly and feel finished during buyer walkthroughs.

Listing preparation is not about covering up defects or rebuilding more than necessary. We identify the details buyers will notice, make sound repairs, match the surrounding materials, and leave the space looking intentional instead of patched.
