Our
Approach

Glass is cut to your staircase, so every job begins with a free in-home measure of the treads, posts and handrail the panels will sit between. We confirm the panel layout and fixings with you before anything is ordered, because glass cannot be trimmed on site.

Most glass railings go in alongside a staircase recap or a new hardwood floor, and we plan the two together so the finishes match. The price you get is a fixed written price, and we work across Toronto, Vaughan, Mississauga, Brampton, Markham and Richmond Hill.

We are licensed, insured to $2 million and WSIB compliant, and our workmanship is warranted for up to two years.

Glass railings, what to expect

Glass panels replace the wood spindles on a staircase or landing while the treads, posts and handrail stay, which opens up a stairwell and lets light through. Every glass job is quoted after a free in-home measure, because panel sizes and fixings are cut to your staircase.

Most of our glass work happens alongside a staircase renovation, so if you are recapping carpeted stairs in hardwood at the same time, we plan the two together. See staircase renovation in Toronto for what else we change on a staircase.

Frequently asked questions

Are glass railings safe?

The panels are safety glass, tempered or laminated depending on the installation, and the railing is built to meet the Ontario Building Code for height and loading. If a panel is ever damaged it is replaced as a unit rather than repaired.

Can glass replace the spindles on my existing staircase?

Often yes. Glass panels can go in where wood or wrought iron spindles are now, and the existing newel posts and handrail can stay if they are sound. It is one of the quickest ways to open up a dark staircase without rebuilding it.

Do glass railings show every fingerprint?

They show marks more than wood or iron, and a stairwell with children will need wiping down. Most people find that a fair trade for the sightlines and the light a glass railing lets through, but it is worth knowing before you choose it.

What does a glass railing cost?

Glass railings are quoted per job rather than by the foot, because the number of panels, the hardware and whether the posts and handrail are being replaced at the same time all change it. The price is fixed in writing after a free in-home visit.

Before & After

Don't just
take
our
word for it

CUSTOMER SERVICE
When you call us you speak to the people who will actually be in your home. No call centres, no ticket numbers, no being passed between departments.

You get one point of contact from your first quote to the day we clean up and hand the room back to you.
FEEL THE DIFFERENCE
A well-installed floor is quiet. No creaks, no clicking, no movement when you cross a room at night.

We take the time on subfloor preparation and fastening that makes that silence possible, because noise is the first sign of a rushed installation.
EXPERIENCE
For over 15 years, we have been providing high-quality flooring installation and home renovation services throughout the Greater Toronto Area.

With hundreds of successful projects under our belt, you can trust us to deliver exceptional results for your space.
Choosing a floor for a home with young children means balancing warmth underfoot against a surface that survives toys, spills and scooters.

We will tell you honestly which products manage both, and which ones only look the part.
