What Precision Stairs does

Precision Stairs, Inc. is a privately held, founder-operated custom stair design, manufacturing, and installation company headquartered in Modesto, California. Founded in 1999, the firm operates from a single location at 485 Bitritto Way Unit F and serves residential customers across a roughly 100-mile radius in Central California (the "Northern California Division"), with willingness to extend further upon builder request. Its core capability combines in-house Computer-Aided Design (CAD) with precision milling and fabrication of wood stair systems (balusters, newels, handrails, treads) and ornamental iron balusters with powder-coated finishes.

The company operates three service lines: Production Stairs for nationwide and regional tract and custom home builders, and Stair Remodeling and Stair Renovation for homeowners. Production-buyer revenue is project- and per-unit based across tract developments and is supported by long-tenured relationships with named national and regional homebuilders including Lennar, Tri Pointe Homes, Kiper Homes, and Homestead Community Builders. Homeowner work is quote-based, project-priced, and inbound through phone, email, and a website contact form. The product catalog spans nine stair style systems (Box Craftsman Square, Turned Traditional, Box Traditional, Designer Series/Aalto, Horizontal Craftsman, Horizontal Stainless Steel, Horizontal Iron, Horizontal Steel Cables, and Glass Panel), nine wood species, ten iron finishes, and an add-on set of treads, risers, starting steps, volutes, fittings, rosettes, and wall caps.

Revenue is generated entirely through project-based contracts (residential construction subcontracting) with no subscription, licensing, e-commerce, or marketplace channel. The business is bootstrapped with no disclosed funding, parent company, or external investors. Distribution is wholly direct: field sales and on-site estimating for builder customers, and inquiry-driven inside sales for homeowners. The primary proprietary assets are an internalized design-build-install workflow, a standardized Four-Step selection system paired with an Interactive Stair Designer for customer configuration, and a single-day Wrought Iron Baluster Replacement service that addresses the residential remodel segment. Headcount is documented at 1-10 with referenced "experienced installation crews," and no revenue, awards, patents, or regulatory actions are disclosed in the available data.
