"We are extremely pleased with the work done by H&J Roofing on our roof and gutters. Steve visited us to discuss our specific needs and gave us a thorough education on the materials he would use, and the meticulous cleanup process his crew would use during the job. Steve was professional and courteous and responsive to our follow-up questions. I had gotten four quotes for this job and the price difference from the highest to the lowest around 15,000. While H&J was not the lowest, I chose them because Steve conveyed a lot of thoroughness and pride in his work, and took the time to make sure we understood the whole process. Plus, H&J had already done a few roofing jobs on our block, and having spoken with neighbors and seen the work firsthand, I was confident in our decision. Steve delivered on his promise of fine work, done in a timely fashion, leaving no mess behind - just a beautiful new roof and new gutters."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Andover, CT

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.
