"It went very well. The window is beautifully put into the wall and Matthew did some extra finishing work that made the new installation look so much better than the original. He installed and finished on time and cleaned up which I really appreciated as not every craftsman does that. An excellent job."

"They were really great. I felt like they worked really hard to find what I needed and to get me a good deal. They were quick and honest and kind. I hate the workers that treat you like you are stupid and they try to rip you off and both Vadim and Alex were the complete opposite. I am recommending them to all of my friends. Makita"

"It went great! Shawn came up to install some cabinets and we realized that kitchen sink was not gonna sit center to the wall or underneath the window. (Note- these cabinets were not made by furniture medic). Shawn quickly figured out a solution by shortening the width of one of the cabinets. He took it back to the shop and had it completed in just a few days. Which was super important as the countertops were going to be installed shortly after he had it done. You will absolutely be glad that you chose furniture medic!"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Hammett, ID

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.
