Our Process
Our Process
Every flooring and stair project should be a seamless and stress-free experience. That’s why we’ve created a clear, step-by-step process for completing your home project. When you choose Top Step Development, you get more than quality products and skilled installation—you get a trusted partner who values communication, craftsmanship, and your satisfaction every step of the way.
Below is an overview of what you can expect when working with us:
Your project begins with a personalized consultation where we take the time to understand your vision, needs, and budget. Whether you’re looking for new hardwood floors, luxury vinyl planks, or custom stair components, our team carefully assesses your space and discusses your options. Based on this conversation, we prepare a detailed estimate so you know exactly what to expect before moving forward.
Once you’ve reviewed your estimate and are ready to proceed, we’ll provide a contract that clearly defines your project details. This agreement ensures everyone is on the same page by outlining the scope of work, timeline, and terms. We believe in transparency and want you to feel confident about what’s ahead. That’s why our team is always available to answer questions or clarify any part of the agreement before work begins.
With your contract signed, the next step is preparing the materials needed for your project. Depending on your chosen design and requirements, we either order high-quality products from our trusted vendors or custom-manufacture components right in our mill shop. This allows us to provide both standard solutions and unique, one-of-a-kind pieces tailored specifically to your home.
After confirming when your materials will be ready, we work with you to schedule a start date for installation. We carefully coordinate the schedule to fit your project timeline and your daily life, providing you with as much notice as possible. While installation dates are occasionally subject to change due to supply or manufacturing timelines, we always promptly communicate adjustments so you remain fully informed throughout the process.
Your project materials will be delivered directly to your home. Our team ensures that all supplies are placed in a location that is convenient for the crew to access, but still out of the way of your daily routine. This allows the materials to acclimate to your home environment if needed, while minimizing disruption to you and your family. Some projects may not require early delivery, and in those cases, our crew will bring the materials with them on installation day.
When it’s time to begin, our professional crew arrives as scheduled and gets to work transforming your space. With years of experience and a commitment to detail, we handle every part of the installation process with care—from preparing the work area to installing each plank, tile, or stair component with precision. Our goal is not only to deliver a beautiful finished product but also to respect your home by maintaining a clean and safe work environment throughout the process.
Once installation is complete, we invite you to join us for a walk-through of your project. This is your opportunity to see the finished results, ask any final questions, and confirm that the work meets your expectations. Our team takes pride in our craftsmanship, but more importantly, we want you to feel confident and excited about your new floors or stairs. If there’s anything you’d like clarified or adjusted, we address it promptly.
The last step is all about celebrating your completed project and sharing your experience. If you love your new floors or staircase, we encourage you to tell your friends and family. Referrals are one of the greatest compliments we can receive, and they allow us to help more homeowners create spaces they’re proud of. We also welcome reviews and feedback to ensure we’re always delivering the best possible service!
