"Contractor worked with us on details of the contract. Doing what seemed fair to everyone was refreshing. They worked hard at what they did and didn't promise anything they weren't willing to do. I have a high regard for their work ethic. Work was done well."

"Victor came out and gave me a estimate to replace some rotten wood siding and place a metal post for my storm damaged patio cover. I hired him and he started next day. Victor was thorough and detail oriented. Very happy with his work and will keep his # for future and friends in need."

Customers say: Quick response

"On time, courteous, professional, on budget! Work completed exactly as discussed, and cleaned up job site, this was a fairly extensive fence repair and Eric did not try to up-sell me to a new fence like other contractors I had bid the project. He understood our desire to keep the â old lookâ of our fence and bid the job accordingly - exactly what we wanted. Will use him again should we need other repair/remodeling work."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Galveston, TX

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.
