"1) Dave Beck (Classy Craftsmen) provided the most thorough, clear, informative and detailed proposal of the 4 contractors I had quote this work.   <br /> 2) Classy Craftsmen were very appealing because they were willing to perform ALL the items we needed done, not just the big ticket items - but various handyman tasks as well. <br /> 3) Dave Beck was able to provide many suggestions and ideas that added value to the work we planned to perform, given their extensive experience repairing/remodeling homes throughout the city. <br /> 4)  Dave Beck provided the most overall competitive pricing, and the most flexible scheduling of the 4 contractors I had quote this work. <br /> 3) As a contractor myself (unrelated work) - my expectations were incredibly high.  The workmanship of Dave's crews EXCEEDED my expectations and everything was addressed exactly as expected, in most cases beyond. <br /> 4) Dave's crew members were exceedingly professional and courteous (and patient!!).   There was never a moment of discomfort having them in our home, with our dog or our family!  It was a pleasure getting to know them and spend time with them.  They addressed our every concern....... <br /> 5) Most importantly - the workmanship was honest, excellent, and thorough to the point that it exceeded our expectations.  We could not have asked for better work and craftsmanship, fairer pricing, or more professional contractors to have worked with.  We are VERY pleased with everything!!! <br /> MY FAMILY AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Felicity, 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.
