Custom Stairs & Railings for New Construction in Frisco & Prosper

Frisco and Prosper are two of the fastest-growing new-construction markets in North Texas, and the staircase is one of the details that separates a memorable new home from a forgettable one. Whether you’re a builder framing a subdivision or a homeowner in the middle of a custom build, here’s how FJR approaches stairs and railings for new construction in these communities.

Why new construction is the ideal time

The best staircase decisions are made before drywall. Open-riser and floating staircases need their concealed steel engineered and framed for from the start; even a traditional stair benefits from planning the railing runs and landing geometry early. Building in Frisco or Prosper means you can specify the stair as an architectural feature rather than retrofitting one later at higher cost.

Options that fit new-build design language

Frisco and Prosper homes trend transitional and modern-farmhouse, and that’s exactly where mixed-material stairs shine — warm wood treads with iron, cable or glass railings. Because we run one in-house metal shop, the stair ironwork can be matched to a custom iron entry door so the home reads as one cohesive design from the curb to the second floor.

Built for a builder’s schedule

New construction lives and dies by the schedule. A staircase installed late holds up flooring, trim and the certificate of occupancy. We coordinate directly with your superintendent and fabricate in-house — not in a subcontractor’s queue — so stairs and rails land in the right sequence and pass inspection the first time. For volume plans, our production-home stair packages keep pricing and lead times predictable.

Honest pricing for planning and bids

Because we publish ranges, budgeting a new build is straightforward: custom staircases start around $8,000, floating stairs run $15,000–$60,000+, and railings run roughly $60–$250 per linear foot by material. Builders get a figure they can drop into a bid; homeowners get numbers they can plan around — with an exact written estimate after we review the plans.

Start early

The earlier we’re involved, the more design freedom you have and the smoother the install. If you’re building in Frisco, Prosper or the wider metro, reach out during framing and we’ll help you get the staircase right the first time.
