“Transform your home with our expert carpentry finishes. From stunning doors and elegant windows to flawless floors and custom decks, we bring craftsmanship and quality to every project. Trust us to elevate your space with precision and style.”

"We recently had new railings installed on our renewed deck, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the contractor was professional, responsive, and detail-oriented. They showed up on time, worked efficiently, and kept the site clean throughout the process. The craftsmanship is outstanding. Our deck not only feels safer but also looks amazing. The railings completely transformed the space and gave it a fresh, polished look. What really stood out was the contractor’s pride in their work and their willingness to go the extra mile to make sure every detail was perfect. They listened to our ideas, made thoughtful suggestions, and delivered a final product that exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality deck or railing work. If you want a reliable professional who combines skill with great customer service, this is the contractor to call!"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Eliot, ME

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.
