"We are very pleased with the service we received from Good Neighbor Fencing. Bob Stewart was great to work with. He helped us select and design a fence that would work well in the space we planned to enclose. He also took notice of our dogs and suggested smaller spacing between the rails on the fence to be sure our smaller dog did not get out of the backyard once we had it fenced in. In addition to being very pleased with working with Bob, we were extremely happy with the installation that Vernon and Joe did. They were careful to ensure that the fence was installed properly and even went so far as to hand-dig the post holes so that they did not do any damage to our irrigation system and underground electric fence. All that said, my husband and I would recommend Good Neighbor Fencing without reservation."

"Heather and the team did a wonderful job. They showed me the granite piece they were going to cut and set up an installation day and time that fit my schedule - she was extremely helpful and professional over the phone and on-line. The installers left the house cleaner than when they arrived and did an excellent job putting in the countertops. I'm extremely happy with the quality of their work, and it looks 1000x better than the Staron they replaced. Five Stars!"

"Matt and his specialist Andrew, did a great job color matching the spacer (requiring custom blends of stain and poly) and with the overall job itself. He did have some transportation issues during the tight timeframe but made a special effort to finish the job on time, so that we had our beautiful kitchen back in order as planned."

"During the last hurricane we noticed a leak coming through our second floor and we were in need of some roof repair. Kyle responded quickly and had his guys out here in no time. We had a few issues going on and Precision was great at explaining exactly where our problems were and they took pictures to show us. Kyle also offered us a few different solutions based on our budget and really leveled with us. Honest guys! Definitely recommend!"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Fort Lee, VA

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.
