"Jesse Summerlin and his crew were wonderful. On time, polite, cleaned everything up and did a fantastic job. This was a limited repair but I will call him soon to redo the rest of the deck with confidence that I will get an exceptional job. Thank you Jesse and crew!"

"I needed a door built in and framed at the bottom of stairs leading to a separate apartment. After 4 months and multiple contractors committing to, then canceling, or not showing up, I found Joe Maguire. he showed up when he said he would, he was always timely, friendly and professional. And did an outstanding job! The built-in frame and door are seamless and look like they've always been a part of the apartment. His prices are extremely reasonable, and most importantly for me he showed up when he said he would, finish the job in a timely manner, and really did good work! I've already got him lined up for some other jobs as well!"

"The whole process went smoothly. He listens well to the client’s vision and artfully brought to life the look we were going for. He is not only a skilled carpenter but also has an artistic gift in his work. We wanted a custom made, easy to assemble, antiqued wood bed with a medieval flair. He drew up a plan and checked in with us through the whole process, offering his feedback and adjusting changes if needed. We merely had a theme in mind and he designed and built a work of art. The antiqued wood blends well with our other antiques but is far more durable. It’s a perfect blend of beauty and practicality. We highly recommend him for any carpentry project you might have, and we look foward to having him build more here."

"He built a wooden Cow fence, with horse wire on the inside - about 250 feet of fence. This is the second fence he has built for me. He is now building stairs of off my my deck, 20 to 30 feet high, with two landings."

"5tars Excellent Service- Richie and Chris were awesome. I recently hired Mr. Handyman to repair some damaged vinyl siding on my house, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. From the moment I contacted them the communication was as prompt and professional. The quote was fair. Richie arrived on time, was friendly and clearly experienced. He assessed the issue quickly and completed the repair with great attention to detail. The siding looks as good as new - you can’t even tell it was replaced. I really appreciated the efficient, high quality work and clean up afterwards. I highly recommend Mr. Handyman to anyone needing home repairs. I’ll definitely be calling them again for future projects. CJ"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Hendersonville, NC

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.
