Customers say: Quality work

"Ryan and his crew provided exemplary service to us - I would give a rating of 10 stars if I could. We sought assistance to repair damage from a water leak as we prepped to have new carpet installed. It felt like other businesses saw our misfortune as opportunity, but from the beginning it was very clear that Ryan's focus was solving our problem - in the most thorough and expeditious way possible. I appreciated their clear communication and attention to detail. My house is solid, and the finish is beautiful. I would not hesitate to call them again for any future work. They are trustworthy. In fact, I am wondering if there are other projects I have put off..."

"Grady met all our expectations above and beyond! He performed every duty with the utmost professionalism. Always on time, and met our every wish and need. He even took it upon himself to install an extra security rail so our 14 year old nearly blind doggie wouldnâ t fall off the edge of the deck. His craftsmanship is superb and heâ s also just a really nice guy! We highly recommend Grady!"

"Mizan rebuilt a hallway linen closet that was remuddled by another construction company. He was easy to work with and understood exactly why you can't draw air from a closet. He fixed the code violation and installed a beautiful open closet. He does quality work at a fair price and I'll be asking him back to fix the stair on the main stair case and update the balusters."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Aurora, OR

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.
