Designed Stairs

We sourced custom wood railings for a large residential project and were very pleased with the materials and their customer service.

All I can say is I'm glad we found Design Stairs. From the beginning working with Jacob on the design and quote, to the installation scheduling with Angi, everyone was helpful, understanding to our needs and schedule. They both did everything possible to make it happen. As for the installation, Joe did an amazing job of removing the old stairs and installing the new stairs. His attention to detail was superb. Thanks to everyone for the work and effort you guys provided. I'd highly recommend Design Stairs to anyone looking for a great company.

A truly excellent job!! The craftsmanship of my stairs was amazing. Every measurement so precise! Best decision ever to go with Designed Stairs. Love their work and attention to detail.

If you are looking to do any home remodeling or new construction that will involve staircase, Design Stairs is the one to go. I knew the company since mid 1990's and I am still using their service till to these days. I highly recommend Design Stairs for their professional and quality product.

I have used Designed Stairs as a builder over the years because they offer consulting advice on best practices and latest design trends, they are very detail oriented in thier design, their installation team are consistently perfectionists (Paul was the latest example), and they do not nickle and dime the customer. I am happy to take a call from any prospective client to substantiate my recommendation. ed

We hired Designed Stairs to do a new stairwell wall railing and upper stairwell railing (banisters, newel, etc.). Harburt was so great to work with, very patient and very informative. They had amazing choices and really were great partners through the whole process to help us get to our desired vision. Day of the install was quick, thorough and respectful of the space. Have gotten so many compliments on the work and absolutely recommend them to anyone in the Chicagoland area.

We've been working with Designed Stairs for years and we absolutely enjoy working with all of them! Angie, Kristi, John and all of the rest of their staff and installers have always been so incredibly easy to work with and take such good care of us. It makes stairs a breeze for our houses and they always turn out stunning! They are truly artists!

Designed Stairs was great to work with. From the service to the finished product we were very happy with them. The staircase was built to the exact specifications and is absolutely stunning. It's such an amazing focal point in this house.

Designed stairs was the best contractor we used on the construction of our new home. We had an unusual contemporary floating staircase with built in LED lighting where we needed considerable design help. The owner, John Ressler personally helped us thru the design process and followed up with us numerous times to ensure that everything on the project was going well. Not only was the service outstanding, but the quality was also excellent. And the best part was their price was considerably less than two other companies we received quotes from. I would strongly recommend this company for any interior custom staircase. You won’t be disappointed!

You will find the people at Designed Stairs to be quite friendly, professional and easy to work with. They take pride in their workmanship and make you feel like you are a part of their family. No job is too small or large. They are efficient on the site and everything is cleaned up at the completion. The entire process was simple and stress free. I highly recommend you giving them a call for your next project.

If the highest quality is what you want, stop your search with Designed Stairs. They genuinely care about homeowners, builders and their product. I have used numerous other sources for product in the past and NONE compare in quality to what Designed Stairs gives me on every single job. Designed Stairs cares deeply that my company is successful and that my clients are thrilled with the product I install. They aren't #1 by accident, they dedicate time and energy into constantly improving their already superior product so that they are never stagnant in a changing industry. If you can dream it, they can create it for you. Seriously...stop looking for someone better, they don't exist.

Designed Stairs has partnered with us for over 30 years. The relationship that has developed over that time with the owner and the employees is one of trust. From sales to service to installation they are committed to doing things the right way; always providing a high quality product.
