"I was referred to Chapman Cabinets via Angies List. After leaving a message in reference to a kitchen project, I was contacted very shortly after. I mentioned that I had gotten their info from Angies List and described the work I would need to have done. After speaking with Eric and sending pictures and other information, I was given a very reasonable quote with a description of exactly what that quote entailed. Upon agreement, I was asked for the address so that Eric could schedule the work. Not knowing where they were located, I thought nothing of the location details, but as it turns out, my address happened to be five and half hours away from where Chapman Cabinets is! I received a call from Eric, who explained that despite the 5.5 hrs it would take for him to get to this job site, he was going to honor the quote anyways! He mentioned that he probably should have looked closer at the addresses, but since we had made an agreement, he intended to meet his commitment! I find that very commendable and don't see enough of that in business these days. Despite some hold-ups due to Corona related delays, I would highly recommend Chapman Cabinets of Georgia, regardless of where you live! The work was completed as described and the quality is excellent!"

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