Dale R. Sweezy, Founder
With a passion for exceptional craftsmanship, Dale began his career in construction in 1971 at the Carpenters Union 1622 in Hayward, California.
Targets set high, he excelled quickly through the apprentice program finishing a year ahead of his class - the first of many accolades decorating a successful career in the trades. Next at the early age of 26, Dale continued his success by acquiring his State Contractor's License and shortly after opened the doors to D.R.S. Stairs Inc. in San Jose, California.
Today, with nearly 50 years of experience in construction and construction management Dale’s vast knowledge base has allowed him to stay competitive and thrive in the Bay Area’s ever-changing environment.
He’s grown to believe in not only the art of construction, but also the art of building relationships and how they both can make the community where we live just a little bit better.
DRS installed modern white oak stairs and rails with metal balusters at my house. Very satisfied with the quality and timeliness of the work. No surprises at all. The crew, lead by Juan, was very accommodating of other contractors working at the house.

We recently had D.R.S. Stairs install a stair railing (wood handrail, steel balusters & posts) for our home. We were very happy with the installation and the estimator. It's extremely difficult to find installers who do modern railings for residential projects.

DRS did a great job on our railing. Kelly came out to measure and give an estimate. I was confused by the size/style I wanted, so went to their office to look at choices. Kelly was very helpful and patient with me. Vicky was always so helpful on the phone as well.

The Solid Foundation.
Like any group of people, over the previous three decades we’ve evolved quite a lot here at D.R.S. Once a modest carpentry business of one, is now a diverse family of tradesmen and women with employees claiming over twenty and twenty-five year tenures. Growing pains and recessions and obstacles have made us stronger as a team and we are humbled to have the opportunity to work in this amazing area with such amazing clients. In the beginning we built thousands of staircases, today we build homes, offices, cabanas, landscapes, basements, stables and - staircases!
