I've been doing home repair for more than 10 years. I've seen the ins and outs of building from the ground up. My skills are mainly focused in carpentry and finish work. I have worked all over the panhandle, just making repairs along the way. Let me get your house back to how you want it!

I have 22yrs experience in several trades. I grew up in Charlotte NC, installing interior trim on custom high end homes. Since moving to the beach I have gained alot of knowledge working on different crews from dock building, metal roof installation, slinding glass door replacement, deck building, painting and even hanging mini blinds and drapes. I do my own thing now and enjoy working with homeowners to make their visions a reality.

"Unfortunately the contractor missed my scheduled appointment.  When called they apologized and showed up shortly thereafter. When the contractor arrived, they explained the scope of what I purchased.  They immediately started to work and was finished in short order.  Work was satisfactory and professionally done.  One repair made did have a small leak at first rain.  When called they responded quickly."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Fairhope, AL

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.
