Floating Stairs in Marysville, WA
Why Marysville Homeowners Choose Us
A Modern Staircase Built for Your Marysville Home
Marysville has grown fast, and the newer neighborhoods east of the freeway are full of two-story homes with open main floors and tall entries. Those layouts were built for a staircase that opens the space up rather than closing it in, and a floating design delivers exactly that.
Floating staircases are the only thing we build. Steel work, tread finishing, and installation all stay with our own people from start to end. On a feature this visible, that single chain of hands is what protects the quality.

Why Floating Stairs Work in Marysville Homes
The two-story homes filling in around Lake Stevens Road, Sunnyside, and the Getchell area typically put the staircase right off the entry, in full view from the front door. A boxed-in staircase in that position makes the whole main floor feel smaller and darker than it is. Swap it for a floating system and the entry doubles in perceived size.
The older housing stock closer to downtown and along the waterfront is a different story. Homes from the 60s through the 80s are getting opened up, and once the walls come down, the original dark stairwell is the last thing left that dates the interior. A floating staircase finishes the update and pulls light between the floors.
Where We Build Across Marysville
We work throughout the city: downtown Marysville, Sunnyside, Getchell, Kellogg Marsh, Shoultes, Whiskey Ridge, Pinewood, Cedarcrest, and the newer developments spreading east toward Lake Stevens. Two-story homes with open entries are our most common local project.
We also serve the surrounding communities, including Everett, Lake Stevens, Arlington, Snohomish, and Tulalip. If your project is anywhere in north Snohomish County, call or send the form and we’ll be in touch within a business day.

Stairs & Railings
Pair with Railings
by Custom Railings WA
A floating staircase and its railing should be one design. Our sister company, Custom Railings WA, builds cable railings, steel rail systems, and frameless glass guardrails in the same shop as your staircase, so the two are drawn together and go in together.
For Marysville family homes, cable and thin steel rails hold up well against kids, dogs, and daily traffic while keeping the stairwell open. Glass panels give the staircase more presence in a larger entry. One consultation covers both, with samples you can handle.
Mono Stringer
Mono Stringer Stairs in Marysville
A mono stringer runs one steel beam up the center of the staircase with treads mounted to both sides. It’s the system we install most in Marysville: it fits a wide range of openings, looks clean from every angle, and delivers the full floating effect at the friendliest price of the three.
Each beam is fabricated to your specific rise and run, then powder coated in your chosen finish. Matte black steel under white oak treads is the local favorite and works with almost any interior palette.
Double Stringer
Double Stringer Stairs in Marysville
A double stringer sets a beam along each side of the treads instead of one through the middle. It’s stiffer underfoot, carries wider treads, and gives the staircase a more substantial presence. For Marysville’s bigger two-story homes and longer runs, this is the system we specify.
Two beams also broaden the design. Thick slab treads, extended spans, L-shaped and switchback layouts, and lighting under each tread all come together cleanly. Every staircase is built to the exact dimensions of your run.
Cantilever
Cantilever Stairs in Marysville
Cantilever stairs conceal the structure inside the wall, so each tread appears to float with nothing beneath it. It’s the most dramatic system we build and the one that turns a Marysville entry into a genuine showpiece.
Cantilever stairs are the most involved of the three systems, and we’ll tell you during the free consultation whether one suits your space. On a new build we coordinate closely with your builder so everything integrates cleanly.
