Stairway, Door, & Trim Restoration Project
CertaPro Painters® of Colorado Springs
Stairway & Interior Trim Project in Colorado Springs
In February 2023, CertaPro Painters of Colorado Springs took on a small but impactful project that transformed a homeowner’s upstairs landing area. This two-day project focused on updating the stair railing, doors, and trim to create a bold, modern aesthetic. The homeowner’s goal was clear: they wanted a new, contemporary color scheme for their upstairs landing that would make a striking impression when entering their home. The primary focus was on the stair railing, which needed to deliver the “wow” factor they were looking for. The existing woodwork, including the railings, doors, and trim, featured a dated brown stain that no longer matched the homeowner’s vision for their space.
Project Details
The project involved transitioning the stained wood surfaces to a painted finish, creating a sleek and modern look. Specifically, the team transformed the brown stair railings to a solid black, while the brown wood doors were painted a crisp white. The walls themselves remained untouched, as the homeowner was satisfied with their current color. These changes focused entirely on enhancing the woodwork, ensuring the new finishes would stand out against the existing backdrop.
Special Challenges
Choosing the right color palette for a project like this can be daunting. To make the process easier and ensure the homeowner’s satisfaction, CertaPro Painters brought in their experienced color consultant. Together, they selected modern, complementary colors for the doors, trim, and banister that aligned with the homeowner’s vision. The black railings provided a bold contrast, while the white doors added a clean, timeless touch.
Techniques and Equipment
Painting over previously stained wood requires specific preparation and techniques to ensure durability and a professional finish. CertaPro’s top crew, experienced in working with stained wood trim, utilized their expertise to handle the project efficiently. Proper surface preparation, including cleaning, sanding, and priming, was essential to achieve smooth and long-lasting results.
The team’s attention to detail and use of high-quality paints ensured that the finished surfaces would stand up to daily wear and tear while maintaining their vibrant appearance. Even though the project was smaller in scale, the precision required to work on railings, trim, and doors demonstrated the value of skilled craftsmanship.
The Final Result
The transformation was striking. The solid black railings immediately drew attention, providing the “wow” factor the homeowner had envisioned. The white doors and trim brightened the space and complemented the modern aesthetic. Together, these changes elevated the home’s overall look and gave the upstairs landing a fresh, updated feel.
