"Mose did a fantastic job. In 2017 I hired Mose to replace the rotten wood trim with Azec around seven windows and around the rear door of my house. Mose's work has stood the test of time. In 2019 his work remains looking excellent. Mose is very detailed-oriented. He even painted the Azec before installing it so it would match the paint on my house. I would highly recommend hiring Mose for your carpentry needs."

"We were needing to frame in our 1100 SQFT. basement so we could finish it. We talked to 3 carpenters and Andrew was by far the best and knew things the other’s didn’t. He was on time and on budget and walked us through everything step by step. If you are looking for an honest and trustworthy carpenter look no further."

"Believe the reviews! Hart was a pleasure to work with and very communicative with scheduling and materials. I had an original set of stairs that broke and needed replaced. I know that can get complicated quick in a home built in 1959, so I found Sturdy Woodworks through Angi’s List. Several other flooring companies took a look, but many of them are equipped for complete stair/floor finishing and replacement (mainly larger jobs) which is pricey. I can sand, stain, paint, and all that…but structural repairs; I needed a pro. Hart replaced 5 stairs treads as well as secured my risers and stringers better. Well, my stairs have never felt more solid!! He also did the first staining of the treads and gave me some tips for finishing and sealing them..which I’m in the process of doing now. I couldn’t have asked for a better result. Getting work done on your home can be stressful and a bit scary to say the least. However, I never felt that way throughout the whole process. It’s rare these days to find quality workmanship and integrity. Reward the good ones! Thanks again!"

"Chris contacted us by text within 30 minutes of searching on Angi's List. I sent a picture and described the issue. He called and came shortly after. He diagnosed the issue and after making a run to the store to buy the needed items, he fixed it (now works like new) and cleaned up the area. He was prompt, professional and the cost was reasonable. 100% recommend his work. "

"There was a little mix up about when the work would start; however, once that got straightened out everything went very well. Had to rebuild steep steps on our raised front deck and did a great job. There was more rot than what they thought but the estimate held other than having to order some wood to make the repairs. Did a great job and had it done in 1 1/2 days. Highly recommend them."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Columbus, OH

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.
