"We went with Absolute Home because their quote came in quite a bit lower than other contractors. We were really excited to get started, and Greg did start with a bang. Then the job kept getting started and delayed, started and delayed. We understood we hired a small contractor, but was told he would be dedicated to our project. He kept having to finish or start other jobs then return to ours. His helper broke our garage door. We bought a new one and he installed it for free. We have told him several times it's still not hung right. A piece of the house siding has come off several times, he came out once and pushed it back into place. He has not come back out to fix it. Despite the problems, we were overall happy with the price and work done, so we went ahead and paid him to fix our fence, power-wash and stain the rest of the fence and decking. He fixed the fence with much cheaper quality wood than the rest of the fence is built from. Then he said he had to wait until the weather warmed up to do the stain. That was March/April. He has not been out to finish the job to date. I have given him the option to refund our money since he didn't complete the project, but he has not responded."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Hermiston, OR

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.
