"Mike did several home renovations for us. We love our bathrooms, deck, our living room especially with the fireplace mantel and hearth updates. He improved and installed our tile, wood flooring, and many room updates throughout our home. He is honest, dependable, and reasonably priced. He shows up on time and keeps us updated during his projects. We would not have anyone else work on our home in regards to home improvements, carpentry, and his expertise. We highly recommend Mike and trust that he will not steer us wrong."

"I earned my science degree in forestry in 1953.  I worked in the hardwood industry for 60 years, the last 40 was traveling all over Asia utilizing my knowledge & experince performing hardwood business.  That said, I know the difference between dying trees & live ones.  I have a huge 60" plus dbh 200 pluis year old water oak tree on my property.  I was informed by 2 different arborist that the tree was dying & required complete removal.  Thankfully, I found Ed Rigby, a knowledgable person with 46 years experince working to preserve historic trees.  Ed & his 3 man crew spent an entire day pruning my beautiful, classic, oak tree.  What impressed & amazed me most was watching his tree cutter climb 50-60 feet up & out on the limbs without using leg spikes, only his muscles & 16 years experience.  Ed Rigby worked the entire day with his crew, directing & supervising the work.  My tree is now well preserved for 2 or 3 more future generations to enjoy.  I highly recommend Rigby's tree care service, to evaluate all homeowners with special, classic hardwood trees in the Atlanta area, before they decide to have them completely removed............come & see my MAJESTIC WATER OAK TREE

"Excellent work performed by Shinya and his crew. They were punctual and professional, did the job thoroughly and even added complimentary services (free gutter cleaning and removal of branches of trees growing over the roof that would allow squirrels access). The price was fair and competitive. We had used Wildlife Evictors on our previous home and was so satisfied with the service and workmanship that we used them on our next home. They even include a transferrable warranty so if you sell your home, the warranty will cover the buyers for the remaining time on the warranty. You can renew the warranty for a very reasonable cost, as well. Shinya backs up his workmanship and is readily available for questions or concerns. Wildlife Evictors cares about their work and their customers' satisfaction."

"We hired Bear Mountain to repair our badly damaged smooth ceiling, frame our skylights, and paint. They were very professional from beginning to end. The quality of the work was excellent. While we could have found a better price, this was a small job that required very skilled labor, as we wanted a perfectly smooth ceiling. It was worth the extra cost to deal with a company that we could rely on to deliver quality work."

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