Dark Hardwood FAQs
Since dark hardwood is easy to maintain and clean, it can be a great choice for all stair parts. Dark hardwood handrails and balustrades are easy to clean, which is a huge benefit for high contact areas. The durability of dark hardwood also makes it perfect for stair treads, spindles, and bullnose steps.
Dark hardwood is generally a cheaper hardwood option than ash or oak, but still offers most of the same benefits as these. It also has a high resistance to indentation and bending, which means that the investment will last for years to come without the need to replace the wood or update your staircase. The only maintenance that’s needed is revarnishing or staining.
