Customers say: True professional

"JT’s Home Repair did such a wonderful job on my home. Soffit repair, facia replacement, pillar replacement, and repair, Back porch, re-screened and replacement of rotted board due to water. And termite damage. Entire house repainted, including brick. Gutters added. When I called for an estimate, James answered on the second ring and came the same day to assess the repair work. He stayed in contact with me over the next week and came A couple more times for additional measuring and planning. He broke down the cost of each additional repair so I could prioritize and budget. For a project this big that is extremely helpful and necessary. I am already dreaming about what I can do to my kitchen with JT’s Home Repair for our next project. Thank you, everyone on the team."

"Randy answered his phone the first time I called him, and came out and looked at the job we wanted done by the end of that same day, which was adding a 24 ft. X 12 ft. metal roof over half of our deck and gave me a verbal estimate the same day. We were very pleased with the work they done. Everything was built with heavy duty materials, made to last. They showed up when they said they would, and got the job done in the amount of time he said it would take. They even worked in the rain for a while the last day to get it done on time. Carl and his crew were very professional and polite, and cleaned everything up at the end of each day. We may have a few more projects in the future, and will definitely call on them again."

"I paid $349 to get two painters to come to my house and paint for 8 hours (each), so I was concerned when I got an early morning call saying that one painter was sick, so I'd only be getting one painter. I was a little worried that I wouldn't get my "money's worth." But a sweet young man named Victor arrived right on time, worked quietly and professionally all day long and finished the job. The rooms look great. So I guess I really did get my money's worth. The job was very well done."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Alexander, AR

Hiring a pro to refinish wooden stairs means labor makes up 20% to 30% of your total budget. That price covers sanding, staining, and sealing each step. In most cases, a certified refinisher can tackle a 10-step staircase in about two hours, then apply stain and sealant for a durable, eye-catching finish that stands up to daily traffic.

A pro can sand a standard 10-step staircase in roughly two hours, then needs another four to six hours for each coat of stain and sealant to dry. DIYers should budget up to a week for sanding, staining, and sealing in stages. With a crew on site, the bulk of the work is completed in a single day, minimizing disruptions while still achieving a high-quality finish.

It’s possible to refinish stairs without full-scale sanding by using chemical strippers, power buffers, or simply layering a fresh finish over the existing coat. Chemical strippers break down old stains and sealants, while buffers quickly shave off surface material. Even so, a quick hand-sand with fine-grit paper helps the new finish bond properly and look smooth. As always, suit up in protective gear and follow product directions to keep your wood—and yourself—safe.

For most stair projects, you’ll want two sandpaper grits. Begin with 80- to 120-grit to strip the old finish and even out rough spots, then move to 150- to 220-grit for a smooth, ready-for-stain surface. A power sander speeds up the coarse pass, but switches to hand sanding with the fine grit in corners and along edges to keep abrasion even and give stain or sealer something to grab onto.
