Floating and open-riser staircases with a clean, modern profile. WA Stair Guy provides floating staircases for homeowners in Seattle, King County, and nearby communities in the Seattle area.

About the Service

Floating staircases use hidden supports or a single stringer so each tread appears to float. They require careful structural planning and are well suited to modern and open floor plans. More about floating staircases

Local context

Why Homeowners in Seattle Choose This Service

Remodels in Seattle usually start with the stair that is already there. With older craftsman homes with original stairs and split-level and midcentury homes common here, we plan layouts and materials that suit the existing architecture rather than forcing a one-size design.

Seattle's housing stock ranges from early 1900s Craftsman bungalows and Tudors to midcentury ramblers, split-levels, and newer townhomes.

We serve neighborhoods such as Ballard, Capitol Hill, Queen Anne, Wallingford, right here in Seattle.
