"Our roof was in bad shape and we needed to have it replaced. I had gotten estimates and decided to go with Home Pro Remodeling. Emil and Brian were our contact people for the project. Emil was very professional and paid attention to our concerns. He worked with us through the entire project to our complete satisfaction. Brian is extremely courteous and helpful as well! The project went very smoothly, was completed before the initial project end date, and the results were beyond our expectations. The job turned our beautifully! Our new roof looks FANTASTIC! Our neighbors have commented to us how great it looks. We are very pleased with our experience with Home Pro Remodeling and would definitely recommend them."

"I would like to recommend Pete Pena for his amazing cabinetry work.  My house went through a 100% renovation.  We had a chance to compare Pete’s work against another cabinet professional.  We used another cabinet person for our kitchen and bar cabinets before we knew Pete.  We found Wood Crafters after we started that work.  Pete did our master bed and study cabinets . I could not be happier with his fantastic work and will do any future work with him. Here is why. Pete’s great work started in the planning phase.  Even though I had experience with cabinet work, he is such a professional, he anticipated some problems with my design.  And, he pointed it out (how many other vendors let you keep moving forward because they are busy?)  Then, he kept in touch with me after the initial drawings were done.  As he did the production, he ran into things that he noticed and called me and advised me on the best approach to finishing the project.  Pete advised me on options that fit my budget. One big thing, he was always ahead of me.  He was calling me about phases he was done with before I was ready with my other subs.  (What construction vendor ever is ahead of the customer! I worked with over 25 subs, and not one were ahead of my job’s progress except the framing crew!)   I give my unequivocal support and recommendation for Wood Crafters for quality work, done with care, done with planning and done on time!  His cost is worth every dollar!"

"We had a major remodeling of our primary and guest bathroom, walk-in closet, fireplace, and laundry area. We are glad to say they thrilled us about the results, now we feel like we live in a luxurious hotel every day! The good thing about working with Best Builders Group is that they have plenty of resources, and they have experts in different areas. We asked for a lot of changes and they always try very hard to accomplish them even though some of them were hard tasks. The team is very professional and what’s more important is that they are always patient in communication. We want to thank Zohar and all the team members who took good care of the house! We really appreciate their positive attitudes and energies towards work, and we feel very safe to see them working in our house. Not only did they take care of the project professionally, but they also helped with a lot of miscellaneous work such as helping deliver orders from local vendors and meeting with other vendors on making work smoother, which we truly appreciate!"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Capistrano Beach, CA

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.
