"We had been delaying work on our deck and 2 porches, After speaking with Josh and Beki we knew these were the people that could deliver on the work. We had several other estimates some higher and some lower. Josh is very engaging and was able to deliver our vision. Very pleased from beginning to completion."

"We had a great experience with I and Sons replacing our very dated and unsafe railings and banisters. From the start, they were extremely responsive and easy to work with. He came in with a fair quote and was flexible with scheduling. After the work was done, we discovered that the preexisting structural components were insufficient so they had to go back in and reinforce some parts, which they did willingly - they really wanted to make sure that we were happy with the project. They were communicative throughout the process and always very friendly and thoughtful of our household while they worked. We're happy with the result and the whole process to get there, strongly recommend them!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Ryan and his crew provided exemplary service to us - I would give a rating of 10 stars if I could. We sought assistance to repair damage from a water leak as we prepped to have new carpet installed. It felt like other businesses saw our misfortune as opportunity, but from the beginning it was very clear that Ryan's focus was solving our problem - in the most thorough and expeditious way possible. I appreciated their clear communication and attention to detail. My house is solid, and the finish is beautiful. I would not hesitate to call them again for any future work. They are trustworthy. In fact, I am wondering if there are other projects I have put off..."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Hillsboro, 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.
