"David was awesome from getting the quote to finishing the job. We called around and got a lot of quotes and chose David based on his knowledge and his responsiveness when we had any questions. He didn’t seem like a handy man that can do it all. He was very knowledgeable about every question that was asked and thought out every scenario when we wanted to make changes. David was on time everyday and was very accommodating to our schedule and worked around everything. We loved his work and craftsmanship so much we hired him to do our kitchen as well. Highly recommend!"

"How good is Ed Chachere?  It's hard to put in words the detail and meticulous nature of Ed and Elijah.  Their work is as close to perfection as possible in a restoration of a home where lumber was cut to a different specification than you find today.  They have repaired walls, floors, renovated bathrooms, resolved problems with old construction, and are in the final process of bringing the home back to it's original glory.  Ed is proficient at working with other contractors and has been invaluable in his ability to coordinate efforts.  Needless to say, not only has Ed done a fabulous job on the home's interior, but he has also saved our sanity during the process.  Interior of the home is near completion and we are starting on outside."

"Over all the job went well. Since it wasn't a critical repair I did not press for speed. Dave was ill when he bid the job and there was some delay there. The weather was a factor also. All things considered he did a good job and I will call him again for other projects."

"My home is more than 30 years old and we it flooded in 2016. My electrical box was in bad shape. Some of the pins were burnt, the breaker was fried and couldn't be replaced. Now I have an all new load center and breaker and pretty much an entire new electrical system for my home. The pro was very concerned about my problem and genuinely cared about fixing it for me. I have not been sleeping well because I was worried about the potential to have an electrical fire due to my faulty wiring and electrical system. The pro came out yesterday morning and stayed until 7:00 pm to fix my problem. I slept well last night knowing that I was safe from the potential to have a fire."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Grand Coteau, LA

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.
