"Reasonable pricing. Efficient, very responsive to inquiries via text or phone, and in a timely manner. Aldo and another crew did our stairs repair with bricks and cement; they did it well, neatly, and fast. Did not leave anything for us to clean up after. We are very satisfied with their work and will definitely hire them again for future projects or repairs."

"We partnered with Wilber’s for external painting and repair. This included replacing wood with composite where necessary and removal of wood shutters and replacement with polypropylene ones. What distinguished this company from others was the following: Danny S. was the estimator and initially met with my husband. Just prior to the start of the project, Danny returned with the foreman Olger A. He went through the project again with us and talked to Olger about job specifics. Olger is an amazing foreman, on time, efficient, skilled, detailed and an excellent project manager. Danny returned mid project to discuss the work with us and review a repair with Olger. They also did extra work for us not covered with the additional estimate which was handled very efficiently. Additionally, they did some picky repairs, such as reattaching a leader to the house, which was appreciated. The result was a beautiful house with great curb appeal – the result of good teamwork. We highly recommend them."

"I hired Big Star to power wash and stain my deck. Tony responded quickly to my request, came by to give an estimate that same evening and completed the job within 4 days just as I asked. Tony is friendly, professional and even repaired my fence gate and cleaned the pathways leading to the deck (no charge). The total cost was $200 cheaper than the next closest estimate I got. The results look awesome 👏!!!"

"Ned is an artisan! His work is a beauty to behold. I found him by chance when I saw him down the block mudding a house foundation. I needed that done. He came an hour or two later and gave me an estimate. He started work 7 days later. Flawless! I call him when ever I need work done around the house. He installed railings, grab bars & indoor outdoor carpeting for a friend who was coming out of a rehab facility after hip surgery. He called me at 11PM at night to let me know he was working in my friend's house so that it would be ready the next morning for my friend's return. He is a craftsman who refuses to dilute his brand by hiring unskilled workers."

Customers say: Quality work

"Mitat and his 2 sons, Val & Alban, and his other workers, have been working on projects for us for a year now; major construction jobs suck as: building a dam on one side of our lake, rebuilding a bridge where a tree uprooted and destroyed a culvert, installing new railings and stairs on our decks, repairing the chimney, sealing cracks that developed on walls and ceilings over 20 years (something a previous company did, but not well), cleaning and installing polymeric sand on our stone pavement driveway, and rebuilding our old stone front steps. They have been extremely professional, honest, helpful and reasonable on their prices. We personally would not use anyone else and we appreciate all their help."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Glen Rock, NJ

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.
