Our Metal Stair Repair Services in Chicago
We provide a full range of stair repair and restoration services for all types of metal stairs:
Welding and Structural Repairs
We repair cracked, broken, or rusted stair components using professional welding and reinforcement techniques. Whether it’s a single tread or a full frame rebuild, we’ll restore your stairs’ integrity and safety.
Rust Removal and Corrosion Treatment
Chicago weather is tough on outdoor stairs. We remove rust and apply corrosion-resistant treatments and coatings to protect your stairway against future damage.
Tread and Riser Replacement
Worn or warped treads are a major trip hazard. We fabricate and replace stair treads and risers to match the original design, or upgrade for better durability and slip resistance.
Handrail and Guardrail Repair or Replacement
Loose, wobbly, or missing railings are a safety violation. We repair or replace handrails and guardrails to meet current Chicago Building Code standards.
Metal Stair Painting and Finishing
After structural repairs, we can prime and repaint your stairs with weather-resistant, long-lasting paint that enhances both durability and curb appeal.
Emergency Stair Repair
