"Great! Ricardo and the team were timely, professional and did great work. We have an older house with some tricky repairs and the crew was able to make the repairs, match the stain and they look great. We paid extra for the "dustless" service - well worth it to keep 99% of the dust out of the existing living spaces - but we still used plastic to seal off the living spaces as an added precaution. Whole job was done in under 3 days."

"I couldn't have been more pleased with the outcome of this project and with hiring Ateba for the job. Right from the outset, I had a great feeling that I had selected the right person for the project. I left a message for Ateba and he responded in less than a day. In our initial discussion, I shared with Ateba the kind of playset I wanted to create and that I needed him primarily to cut the wood and drill the holes I would need. From just that conversation, I could tell he was an expert at his craft. I had every intention of assemblying the playset myself but I soon learned that I would need the assistance of someone like Ateba if the project was going to be a success. Turns out he not only did the necessary cuts to the wood with expert precision (some more complex than others) and drilled the holes (both through holes and countersink holes), but he also helped me assemble the playet and level it for safety. About the only thing he did not do was stain the wood - I did that myself before he came to start the project. I was highly impressed with the professional manner in which he approached his craft (carpentry) and the knowledge that he brought to the table. Ateba was always very punctual and showed a bias for going above and beyond in every way. He wasn't willing to settle for "just ok" and so we made the adjustments to ensure that the playset would be one that my grandchildren and great grandchildren will one day play on. I could not have done something like this on my own despite believing I would at the outset. Ateba is the real deal. Having worked closely with him for a number of days, I can tell you that he has a great attitude and is determined to deliver on your goals. He's also a very fair and genuine person that isn't out to scam you. His personality is such that you'll want to go grab a beer with him. If you have any carpentry needs, I can assure you that you'll get more than your money is worth with Ribba Wood Working."

"Lenny and his crew (Scott, etc) did a phenomenal job. We had a patio put in and our old stairs, deck removed. We wanted it replaced with TREX. We explained to Lenny what we were looking for and he redesigned it perfectly. They did a great job in no time flat. We are extremely pleased and would recommend them in a heartbeat. Thank You Lenny, Scott, and Freeborne"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Lake Hopatcong, NJ

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.
