The staircase - sometimes considered a mere connector between levels - has the potential to be so much more than just a working element. By combining thoughtful design with innovative functionality, a staircase can evolve into a dynamic and integral component of your home's living space; a versatile and purposeful centerpiece that adds style and value.

Victoria Ortiz, director of B&A Stairs and Metal Gates, LLC, agrees. Ortiz says investing in a staircase remodel is a strategic decision. “It will not only preserve the home’s equity but will also yield a more significant impact than the amount spent.”

She shares that homeowners find that a staircase renovation enhances aesthetics and has a transformative effect on the overall floor plan, “creating harmonious spaces and providing a constant source of satisfaction every time they lay eyes on their staircase.”

When it comes to refurbishing a staircase, there are various options to consider, each offering a unique touch to suit your taste and your space.

Wooden railing is a popular choice for a classic and timeless appearance. For those who are looking for a more contemporary look and feel, Ortiz suggests considering glass railing as a trendy and modern option. She says that for those who prefer to have a modern and minimalist aesthetic, a good choice is industrial railings that chiefly feature steel or iron. But according to Ortiz, the most popular choice for homeowners is cable railing.

“The predominant demand revolves around the preference for railing systems featuring cables, complemented by modern metal balusters with wooden accents,” says Ortiz. “These styles are favored due to their seamless integration of minimalism, elegance and harmony.”

No matter the style, reshaping a staircase can create a practical work of art in your home.
