I never heard back from them. They never came to the house they never followed up. Nothing.

Spectacular job done by the entire team at CSS. They are fairly priced, provide excellent craftsmanship, are very professional and trustworthy, have stellar work ethic, and are overall very nice people. We used to hate walking up and down our staircase; it was so outdated, dirty and just gross because of the carpet. After the remodel, we smile every time we are on it - it's so gorgeous. I, without a doubt, highly recommend them. read more

Bought a 32 year old house about 18 months ago and one of my projects was to redo the main staircase. I went with CSS because of the great reviews and great customer service from the owner Chris. From day one, Chris was responsive and helped me make my dream staircase happen. I choose a dark finish with black, high quality ornate wrought iron. I am very pleased with the results. Like with any home project, the cost can make you gasp a little bit. Talking to Chris I learned he employees full time employees not getting day laborers to work. These amazing men like the carpenter, Elmer; site manager, Steve; breakdown employee Hayden and stain finisher, Rodrigo worked hard to get iAll these guys are skilled workers. My project took about 3 weeks. Each stair had to be painstakingly made and fitted by Elmer. Chris was very good about keeping us informed what the next step would be. In conclusion, if you are looking for a professional company to redo your stairs I highly suggest CSS. read more

the quality of the stairs (white oak and white paint) and a white oak handrail with white balusters was great. however there were multiple issues working with CSS. they left dust all over the house. there was some confusion about what we received because there was poor communication from Chris (we weren't aligned on the size and molding on the posts). they promised to touch up the paint on the walls after payment but after two weeks I'm likely going to have wait another couple of weeks until after the holidays or do it myself and I had to reach out to Chris to get status on the touch up. not awful, not great, 3 stars. read more

Could not recommend Chris and CSS stairs enough. Christ was easy to talk to and helpful in planning what we wanted from just a few conversations and pictures. Then Steve showed up with Elmer right as planned with much of the work prepared ahead of time. During the whole process we were able to access both floors of our house aside from a few hours while the finish was drying. Near the end of the project my wife and I weren't quite happy with the stain we had chosen, no fault on Chris or CSS. Despite this, Chris and Rodrigo when out of their way to make it right and we couldn't be happier!!!! In our research we there are really no there places that do this type of extensive and detailed work with such precision and experience. We have no regrets for making such a good investment into our home, it's a clear centerpiece when you walk in. They have my highest recommendation!

Let me first say I'm a bit of a finish carpenter myself so I'm fairly picky when it comes to woodworking craftsmanship and these guys know how to deliver Chris is the owner and always was prompt on all communications. A nice guy too. This is a company that's prides their work, shows up on time, works clean, and is respectful of you and everything in your house The main tradesperson in my job was Steve and I couldn't be happier with the result. After being in the business for over 20 years he knew what decisions to make on his own and which ones I needed to weigh in on. Even if something required a bit more work he would typically agree on my decision and went forward.....knowing you have a guy working on your house that works contentiously on a project, always wanting the best, is so rare these days. All woodworking is based upon accuracy although stair building I quickly realized adds a level artistry as there's a lot of out of plumb walls and things to throw off a straightforward build. In this trade you need people that can work through tweaks and nuances to deliver a beautiful product. Chris, Steve, and the team at CSS know how to deliver read more

Chris and the team at CSS Finish & Stairs did an excellent job transforming our old 1987 railing into a modern staircase that is now the centerpiece of our home. CSS used their professional experience, guidance & craftmanship to exceed what we could not originally envision. The finished product exceeded all our expectations. Since we were living in the home during renovation, CSS finished on time, on schedule, and with minimal clean up required. Excellent work, thank you!!! read more

We reached out based on the reviews on Yelp when we needed to install stair railings. We have a late 60's house with some very late 60's aesthetics that we try and enhance. Chris and his team delivered us EXACTLY what we wanted and worked with us every step of the way, easily and without hassle. We attempted to start this project a few times in the past and just couldn't get it where we wanted it for both design and price. This time it was great on both aspects, then enhanced with tremendous customer service and support. Every person we worked with listened well and offered ideas that were helpful. The end result is wonderful! read more

I called and I believe I spoke to Chris and I told him what I wanted to get done was staining on my staircase, a beam, and front door and was told to send him pictures what I wanted to get done and inspirational photos of something I wanted it to look like never heard back from him didn't get any response after I sent him video and pictures and just kind of rude and unprofessional.. I get it if you don't have time then you could easily respond that you don't have time or aren't taking any new clients at the time...instead of calling me back and telling me to do all this, just to not get a simple response back.. no professionalism! read more

I have been trying to get my stairs done since October. This company was the only one to follow through with the estimate and the work. Mathias was the builder. Every morning he was there on time, he communicated well, and my kiddos loved him too! They subcontract for the staining and paint, and even the subcontractor was great! Rodrigo was efficient and precise with the painting and staining. Over all I would recommend them to friends and use them in the future. Overjoyed that the project got done so well! read more

Our stairs came out amazing! Great quality and craftsmanship. I called several stair contractors. While CSS was not the cheapest, it was the most value for the price and quality of work. I was originally thinking of going with someone cheaper but Chris had mentioned to make sure that the stairs they were providing were not pre-fabricated. I'm so glad I ended up going with CSS stairs because everything is REAL wood and made with excellent craftsmanship. You can definitely tell the difference! Other contractors doing similar wood work were charging twice as much. Very happy with our stairs and Chris was very pleasant to work with. The guys who came to do the stairs worked fast and Rodrigo the painter was very nice as well. Highly recommend! read more

Hassle free, reliable, trustworthy and great results. Very happy with how beautiful our stair rail looks!

I hired CSS Finish & Stairs to install stair railing and trim for my home. This was a challenging job as they had to custom match existing railing and trim in my kitchen area. Moreover, the job had to be completed in a short time frame to ensure that our home was ready to be listed for sale. The job was completed on time and the stair railing, newel posts and balusters perfectly matched the existing kitchen area. The additional trim and molding work really added to the overall professional look of the job. CSS Finish & Stairs staff worked closely with me to produce a final product that met my expectations. The staff were courteous, professional and arrived on time each day. Mr. Strycula, the owner of the company, was great to work with and very attentive to my concerns. I am very pleased with the work and highly recommend CSS Finish & Stairs. read more

I recently had our floors replaced and needed to get our bannister redone. I found CSS on Yelp. I wanted the bannister stained and the balusters replaced. I wanted a company close to our area and found CSS. Normally I usually get three bids, but Chris impressed me immediately with his knowledge and "no pressure" salesmanship. I chose him and his crew. From sanding to staining ( magnificent job done by his guy Rodrigo) to balusters set, the entire project was completed within a week! There were a few "hiccups" but Chris got his guy, Steve, to immediately come and correct them. I highly recommend CSS to anyone who's looking for a professional, honest and super friendly crew to do your stairwell or finishing project. My husband and I are very pleased with our stairs! read more

CSS did a great job for me. The job was to replace an existing stair railing that was dated and install a new metal railing, with stair treads and wood posts. The carpentry work and the stain/paint work was outstanding. The job was timely and the site was left clean. My only criticism is that there was some imperfections in the wall texture where the old railing had been. They ended up doing their best to make it look good, but it really needed a texture job and I need to do that separately. But I still give them 5 stars. By the way, I got several bids for this work and CSS was the best price and also the most straightforward in explaining the job up front. read more

Over 6 months ago, my husband and I hired someone to install a new bannister. The guy did the demo, but kept dragging his feet to install the new one. After several months and multiple no shows, we decided to move on and hire someone that would actually get the job done. We chose CSS bases on the reviews here and on houzz. We are so happy that we did. Chris came out right away to take a look at the space and provide us with an estimate. After scheduling the installation, he was very responsive and accommodating to our design changes. He also shared some ideas with us. One installation day, Steve showed up on time and worked for hours and hours to get the job done. If I remember correctly, I think came at 7:30 and didn't leave until 3:30. He did an excellent job! We were happy with the look of the bannister. We were also impressed by how clean he left the place. In the past, we had workers who left a mess behind. This was not the case with Steve at all! Aside from some dust (very understandable) that we had to wipe down, he left the inside and outside (where he built the bannister) immaculate. Steve also hauled away the materials from our old bannister, which Chris was kind enough to say was okay. About a week and half later, Rodrigo came out to paint the bannister. Chris said he could get another painter to us earlier, but we didn't mind waiting. Similar to Steve, Rodrigo came on time and worked hard to get the job done. Overall, he did a great job. However, after he left, we noticed that there were a few scuffs on the wall and there were holes left behind from where Steve had to move a bracket. We let Chris know and he came out to take a look at it. When he was here, I also let him know about a gap between the handrail and baluster, as well as a missing block under the handrail. I told him it wasn't a big deal because no one would see it unless they were looking closely. But, Chris insisted that he would take care of it. Rodrigo came out the next morning and took care of everything in an hour. We definitely recommend the guys at CSS (and have already referred them to a friend). They are professional reliable, easy to work with, and do great work. read more

I just finished my staircase with Chris with CSS Finish & Stairs. I'm assuming that CSS is Chris' initials, since his last name starts with a "S." Anyways, I'm surprised that he hasn't been Yelped, yet. He has a ton of 5 star reviews on Service Magic- which is where I found him. http://www.servicemagic.com/rated.CSS.18136478.html Let's get down to the business end of this Yelp review. I got a new crib, needed to update the place. I searched high and low for a good staircase contractor. I got about 8-9 estimates. Most staircase contractors are corporate- meaning the guy who gives the estimate does NOT do the work. I found only two businesses that were small where the guy giving you the estimate are the people who do the work. Chris is guy who gives you the estimate, the guy who consults with you regarding your ideas, the guy cutting wood, the guy using the nail gun, and the guy collecting payment. Basically, he is the guy, who also is the guy, who also is the guy, who also... you get the idea. His work is impeccable. I have no complaints in regards to his workmanship. He shows up to work on time and he is very patient with my VERY picky wife. I would estimate that his prices are below the average licensed finish and staircase estimate that I received. I thought Chris' attitude was professional, friendly, and basically outstanding. My wife showed Chris a magazine photo of what she wanted on her droid phone. Chris uploaded it onto his droid phone. And he delivered that photo into our foyer. Amazing work. Reasonable cost. And most importantly- awesome customer service. I'd use him again in an instant. read more

I went on Yelp to find this review as my family was looking to have Crown Moldings done in my 4,343 Square Foot home. The job took 3 days to do as we did the entire home. The painting took 3 days as well. These guys were 1000% professional and are legitimate. We are so damn happy with the job that I'm raving about it to everyone I know. The painters took very special care of not just the moldings but of my wall. I never asked them to repaint my room but they did because the paint we received didn't match anymore if they just painted right below the moldings. That had to do with the quality of the paint. So we bought new paint and they re-did the entire room. These guys are not satisfied with the work until you are. I highly recommend them for moldings. read more

We chose CSS to update our tired and outdated staircase, and couldn't be happier with the results. The impact of having a "STATEMENT" staircase greet you upon entering the house, went from a WOE, to a WOW!!! Not only will we enjoy the staircase now, but we know when we sell the house we will more than recover our investment, as well as make an amazing first impression of our home to perspective buyers. Can't wait to see the reaction of my friends and family when they see our new beautiful staircase that used to be a source of embarrassment. Of all the improvements, and updates we have made to our home over the years, this transformation has been one of the most dramatic. I loved how Steve left the handrail up for me when I voiced concern about losing the security of holding on to it, and the only time I had to walk down without it, Mathias offered his hand to me which I thought was very thoughtful. We did end up with a scratch on our wood floor, but Chris graciously accepted responsibility for the damage and paid for it to be professionally repaired to our 100% satisfaction. I would highly recommend this company to my friends, family, and neighbors. read more

I needed my custom wood entry down to a curved stairway totally demoed and rebuilt, so I called CSS Finish and Stairs. Chris and his crew did a great job. It was a big job - they weren't sure what they would find under the stairs until the demo was complete.

When all was said and done, I was very pleased with the great job they did. read more
