From the very beginning, Matt demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise. He took the time to understand my vision and offered valuable insights that helped refine the design. His attention to detail was evident throughout the entire process, from the initial consultation to the final installation. The craftsmanship of the staircase is truly outstanding. The materials used are of the highest quality, and the finished product has transformed my space into a stunning focal point. I’ve received numerous compliments from friends and family, as I couldn’t wait to show it off! What I appreciated most was Matt’s commitment to customer satisfaction. He was always responsive to my questions and concerns, and worked diligently to ensure that everything was completed with utmost excellence. His professionalism and friendly demeanor made the entire experience enjoyable. I highly recommend Matt and his woodworking skills to anyone looking for top-notch craftsmanship and a seamless installation process. I am beyond satisfied with my new staircase and look forward to working with him again on future projects!"

"We originally hired him for landscaping, and over time he’s become our go-to home repair guy as well. He recently installed new lighting and automated fan modules integrated into our smart home system, and everything works seamlessly. Scheduling was quick and easy, and he showed up when he said he would and got the job done promptly. He’s versatile, reliable, and clearly takes pride in his work. Four stars!!"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Kennesaw, GA

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.
