Customers say: Quality work

"John did an excellent exterior home paint job and replaced rotted walkway and outdoor shower wood floor boards. He is a true professional, completes projects in a timely manner, and communicates as the job progresses. I highly recommend him from his workmanship to his professionalism. John also replaced the plumbing valves for our exterior hot water heater. He did an excellent job in a timely manner. His workmanship was better than any plumber I've used in the past. We will use John for any further maintenance issues or repairs for our home."

"Moving to the Cape, I was warned about how unresponsive home repair people can be. Phil and his team are complete pros and totally changed my outlook. Hired them to install an over the range microwave in a kitchen that was less than perfect. They called within minutes of the request and has someone out within a day. Jim s work was above and beyond the call. He was friendly and resourceful. Did the job perfectly. You have got to hire these guys!!!"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Buzzards Bay, 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.
