Floating and open-riser staircases with a clean, modern profile. WA Stair Guy provides floating staircases for homeowners in Tacoma, Pierce County, and nearby communities in the South Sound 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 Tacoma Choose This Service

Remodels in Tacoma usually start with the stair that is already there. With historic homes with original woodwork and postwar ramblers with basement stairs common here, we plan layouts and materials that suit the existing architecture rather than forcing a one-size design.

Tacoma has a deep stock of early 20th century homes in the North End and Stadium District plus postwar neighborhoods throughout the city.

We serve neighborhoods such as North End, Stadium District, Proctor, Hilltop, about 33 miles from Seattle.
