"Trinh Brothers remodeled my entire basement, kitchen bathroom, installed flooring in every room of my home, built a roof for my patio, installed new doors, painted every room, etc. etc. They were amazing. So talented and the nicest people I've ever done business with. They worked almost 10 hour days for two months and went above and beyond for me. Highly recommend them."

"We purchased this home on a Friday and decided earlier that week that the hardwood floors needed to be refinished before we moved in the following week. Allen stepped up and offered to do the job over the weekend. The house is nearly 100 years old and it looked like a previous owner tried to refinish the floors themselves and it showed. The rooms also have baseboard heat so it made the job a little more tricky. Allen was hoping that he'd be able to get a smooth finish and in the end, the floor looked 1000% better. Allen truly did appear to love his job and in today's society, how many contractors would give up their weekend."

"This was a big job that was part of a whole-house renovation. JA Drywall installed framing and drywall throughout my second floor (three bedrooms + hallway) that had experienced a fair amount of water damage as the result of a leaky roof. Juan and Joshua were great coordinating the project--super quick response time for a walk-through & estimate. And the crew were great---super nice guys who did a great job. (One of them even lent me a tool to help with a project I was working on in the kitchen!) Both my carpenter and painters were impressed with their work. I would rehire &/or recommend them in a heartbeat."

"Went great. Jen gave us pricing within a few minutes and set up the install for about 1 week later. Could not believe how fast it was considering other fence companies were telling me 6-16 weeks before install. Guys cleaned up pretty well and got the whole thing done in one day. I would recommend them every time."

"Wesley’s prices are competitive and was willing to do a compete service including cleaning the soffit. We have a second story over hang with columns that were chipping and peeling. Wesley talked about the process of power washing, sanding, and painting. Everything went well and looks great. We also have 2 bay windows with over hangs that were white. We had them painted bronze. The finish looked a little more matte than we expected so I called Wesley who was very responsive and he explained that the brand of exterior paint only had satin or a gloss finish. We wanted to try the gloss and he was happy to repaint it. We were happy with the results and would use Wesley again"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Cheltenham, PA

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.
