    Just finished our stair remodel and had to turn to the Internet to share our experience. The family over at Felix Flooring did an amazing job with the floors. They feel great to walk on and we are obsessed with the finished project. They were able to get these installed in two days, incredibly professional and a pleasure to work with. Would highly recommend and will be going back to them for our next tile/flooring project. Once they were done, the guys with Straight Up Stairs came in to work their magic. We love supporting local businesses that are owner operated. Working with a company that just does stairs means they really take the time and effort to hone their craft. Tom had a great idea for our design and Curtis was a master of the craft. We also had them create a custom pet/baby gate for the top of the stairs. It's a piece of art, no longer an eyesore. We are so incredibly happy with our finished product! We cannot wait to take those milestone family pictures on our new stairs. Thank you Felix Floors and Straight Up Stairs!

    We are so happy with our new stair rail that Tom and his team did. The quality of the work really shows that Tom and his team are masters in their craft. If you are looking to improve your stairs, do yourself a favor and hire Straight Up Stairs. Our entire experience from design to communication to price to the final outcome was awesome.

    Straight up stairs railing, there's a dog gate at the top as well.

    Honestly one of the best contractor companies I've worked with. Awesome communication even when there might be a delay or a miscommunication. Went above and beyond to get us the updated modern look we wanted. The Owner, Tom and Curtis are a dynamic personable team. 10/10 will definitely recommend. Wish we would've had them do the stairs treads as well.

    We had a great experience with Tom and we highly recommend him. We had white builder grade stair railing which were in need of an upgrade and we love how beautiful they came out! Exactly what we wanted and have a huge difference and great first impression when you walk through our home. Thank you Tom to you and your team!

    Tom and his team are the absolute best! Scope of work on this project: Take out thick walled dated stairway. Open up the space. Replace carpeted treads with solid hardwood. Add wooden banister and horizontal rods. First I would like to attest to the quality of their work. They are true artisans. The carpentry they do is phenomenal. They pay the closest attention to every detail of the job, and the results are spectacular. I explained my vision to Tom, and he brought it to life. I would also like to add that they are reliable, trustworthy and honest. All qualities that make them an absolute pleasure to work with. I highly recommend this company.

    I highly recommend Tom from Straight up Stairs. I researched for months on a good reliable stair company. I had contacted another local company with no follow up responses. After doing a little research on Yelp I realized Tom from Straight up Stairs was the same Tom I was reading about from the other company's reviews. When I was ready to give up Straight up Stairs was tagged in another contractors post. I decided to give Tom a call. So glad I did. Not only was Tom responsive to my call he was polite. His crew was always On time and always cleaned up at the end of the day. You can tell when a person cares about his job vs when it's just another job. Tom truly cares about the simple details. He takes pride in his company. I highly recommend him 100%.

    I can't begin to express how happy I am with my stair remodel. The crafmanship, attention to detail, and professionalism from Straight up Stairs was above and beyond. Remodels are usually so stressful, and this experience was flawless. They knew exactly what my vision was and they delivered.

    We give Straight Up Stairs 5 stars. Tom and his team were very thorough and knowledgeable. They communicated with us to ensure our vision for our new beautiful staircase to become a reality. If you are looking to add value and beauty to your home we recommend calling Straight Up Stairs!

    I want to say thank you to Tom Lawson owner of straight up stairs and his team for an AMAZING experience with my stair railings and a custom baby gate. Perfectionist at its finest.Tom and his team arrived on time when scheduled and made sure the workspace area was safe and covered with a barrier for my daycare kids to still be able to attend my home. If I had any concerns he was quick with his communication. I absolutely love the fact that his team took the time to work on the weekend to get the job done to accommodate my schedule for me to be able to have my house complete by Monday for me to work. I would absolutely recommended them to anyone.

Front start to finish, Mike Gast and Juan Navarro worked with me to translate my vision into the bright open studio I have been dreaming of... As the project manager, Mike Gast was extremely patient and accommodating, and provided lots of feedback to solve various issues. This was a large project that involved removing the garage door, retrofitting 3 sets of doors, framing and finishing for a custom look, inside and out. They even installed special thresholds so we could be assured of being able to roll equipment in and out of the space easily. After each stage of the job, the crew cleaned up the area and removed all debris. The price quoted us initially was in line with competitors, better than several, who failed to follow up with us. There was no cost-creep, and we finished at the price quoted us. Progress and payment was tracked on their online job project site, which was an added benefit and inspired confidence. I can highly recommend Mastercraft and hope to use them in the near future for several other home improvement projects. (A special thanks to the team, Victor and Tony for their cleanliness and work ethic).

Only after I posted photos showing the damage did their response change, when the evidence could no longer be disputed. This has been an ongoing nightmare, and this update is being posted so others are fully informed. I am continuing to document everything and will be sharing additional photos and videos that show the full scope of the project, the condition it was left in, and the sequence of events that led here.
