HAPPY EARLY CANADA DAY!
Feature Walls Rule!
Looking for a cool way to make your house stand out a little more? A barn board/grey board feature wall is very easy to install and will change the entire look of a room. Here at Stairhaus, we sell our grey board 2 ways:
RAW - the material is de-nailed and dry (basically straight off the barn)
DRESSED - the material is de-nailed, dry and ripped to width (we will organize all the cut pieces in stacks of the same size) This material is ready to be installed on a wall.
Regardless of how you want to purchase the materials, if you want a tight fitting feature wall, then the material will have to be dressed.
The barns will be gone sooner than later, get this material before it is not available anymore!
Wrapped up and ready to roll!
Wolfgang is now the best looking straight truck in town thanks to our friends at @mariodesigns.

Meet Wolfgang - Our New Delivery Truck
Meet Wolfgang, our brand new stair delivering machine! Having 3x stair installation days a week was starting to take its toll on our F250/trailer. We wanted to thank Greg over at Lewis Motor Sales for taking great care of us. Can't wait to show you this truck in a week as we are getting it wrapped - highlighting a job we recently got professional pictures of. Big thanks to @darreneagles for getting some killer shots.
Curved Railing - How We Do It!
Here is a time lapse video of a level curve railing glue-up. We ripped the white oak into thin strips then glued all the strips together. After the strips are coated in glue it is lifted up onto the blocks. The blocks are screwed to the template/radius of the curve we require. Once the rail is clamped we will leave it for 24hrs to dry.
Happy (early) Victoria Day - Long Weekend Here We Come!
We wanted to wish you all a safe and happy Victoria Day long weekend! We will be closing early today so our guys can get a head start on the weekend. The Haus will be closed on Monday, reopening on Tuesday (regular hours).
Party on!
We Are Expecting..........................
We have some exciting news to share with you................we are expecting!
If you are familiar with the term "too many cooks in the kitchen" then you will understand why we need more space. The Stairhaus production facility is a bee hive of activity every day and we have outgrown our current facility. We will now have 8500sqft to work with which will significantly increase our efficiencies and productivity. We have another couple tricks up our sleeve to share with you however we will save that news for another day! Have a great Friday and enjoy your weekend!
Please plan ahead - The Haus is very busy!
Just wanted to send out a quick notice to our existing and new customers. We are currently slammed with work and need to send out this notice to make sure you all are planning well in advance. Here are some timing guidelines when it comes to stairs & railings:
Current wait time for stairs after measure:
Carpet Grade: 2-3 weeks
Stain Grade (standard stairs): 4 weeks (straight & winder stairs)
Custom Wood Stairs: : 5-6 weeks (self support/large circulars/mono-stringer)
Steel/Wood Custom Stairs: 6+ weeks
Railing Installs: 3 weeks (glass - add an additional 2 weeks to allow the glass to be cut)
We are working hard to make sure we make all of your deadlines. We are constantly investing in new equipment and staff to keep up with the order volume. If you have any questions/concerns please do not hesitate to give us a call or send me an email (matt@stairhaus.com).
Have a great week!

I just posted a bunch of projects we recently completed. Check'em out!
Mono-Stringer + Graffiti = Stairhaus
Probably one of the coolest/one-of-a-kind set of stairs you will ever see. We installed this monster mono-stringer yesterday after the very talented SAGE tagged it up. We commissioned Toronto's #1 graffiti artist to bring this stringer to life. The artwork wraps around all 4 sides and looks killer against the barn board/reclaimed steel feature walls. These stairs will be getting 3" reclaimed elm treads which are drilled for low profile LED lighting accents. More updates on this beauty in the coming weeks.
