"I recently hired Collazo Home Improvements to replace the old staircase that led up to my elevated deck and I am very happy with their work. Jonathan Collazo came out the next day and provided a reasonable estimate, and Kevin Goss and Perry did an excellent job with the demo, site-prep, and construction. I will definitely call this company again for future home repair and improvement projects."

Local woodworker with 30 plus years experience that works with you to create custom pieces all wood. Also provide a handyman service for your convenience. Visit our website: www.MABwoodworking.com

"The cabinets themselves were very well made, but the process and other aspects of the experience were less than great. Michael didn't pay much attention to the detailed drawings or project parameters provided by the designer, and didn't verify as-built conditions. As a result one of the cabinets was incorrectly sized and some floating shelves I provided were incorrectly installed. Because they hadn’t been included in the original quote, I had to pay an additional fee. Additionally ,communication and adherence to promised schedule and deadlines was inconsistent. Michael is a nice guy and I can tell he’s capable of doing some very good work, but I wouldn’t hire him again based on this experience."

I Specialize primarily in residential carpentry services for elderly and the "aging in place" population. I am familiar with all residential requests from landlord, multifamily or single family homes. I am currently focusing on projects that can be scheduled afternoons and weekends. Typical requests are from grab bars and handrails, to stairs and ramps.

"Joe was not always as punctual as I would have liked but he was dedicated to doing the job right even though he was a little slow at times. He was excellent value and I would hire him again in the future."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Barre, MA

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.
