"We recently bought a condo in Bonita Spring. We liked the place very much but one of the room, that I planned to have as my office, had walls that were occupied by two rows of cabinets leaving no place to put anything in it. We didn't need those nice cabinets so we started searching for someone who can remove them and take to the waste facility. A few people who came asked for the price that sounded ridiculous and the timing was not good for us. Finally, this nice man, Clayton from Nunes Carpentry came. He offered a very fair price and was ready to start just a few days later. And what job he's done! Clayton is very polite, extremely hard working, and did an AMAZING job: worked very carefully not to ruin walls and floor, no smoking or lunch breaks, no complains about the job being much harder than it looked. No pretense. Not showing how 'tired' he was: just working and doing a great job for a very fair price. I highly recommend Clayton and guarantee you won't regret this decision."

"Bill from Tropicana was amazing. His company offers what every home owner desires in the contractor they hire. Knowledgeable and experienced, prompt and courteous, Bill was meticulous in every aspect of my project. From planning, installation and clean up, every detail was handled with care. I always felt comfortable leaving him alone in my house. He was even good with my dogs! Last but not least he made my project affordable. I received a BEAUTIFUL tiled shower for "pennies" more than one of those prefabricated inserts. I am lucky to have hired him, and would give a verbal recommendation to anyone considering his services."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Fort Myers, FL

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.
