"Rich is a very friendly guy who explained what he was going to do and gave me an estimate. He came to look at the job on Saturday and repaired the Newell post that was broken and completely off the stairs and on Monday morning he installed it and cleaned up entirely and also tightened the stair rail by installing a bracket. When I got home from work and inspected the job done by Rich I was completely satisfied and so was my wife and we will use Rich again if we need to. Highly recommend his services."

"This was a really emotional job for me, as a foundation wall in my house collapsed during a storm, and I was being told it wasn't fixable. From the first time he came to my property, I knew Wally was the person who would give me my house back. He is the rare type of person who can see a problem and come up with a workable solution, where others would walk away. This was not an easy job. The entire first floor had to be ripped out and replaced. And every step of the way there was other damage that had to be assessed and fixed. Wally made sure I saw any damage he found and understood both the cause and the solution. This was a long, arduous project, but Wally made me feel that he was in it with me the entire way. His work is top quality and his customer service is top notch. I would not hesitate to hire him again, and I have recommended him to both family and friends. If you want the job done right, then hire Manfredia's Carpentry and General Contracting."

"Rob and Sun-in-builders saved my sanity. I was frustrated after nine other contractors left me high and dry in communication, follow through on scheduling to get a quote and unreasonable prices for our deck build. I received a call from Rob and decided to have him out to take a look. He was prompt and gave me a great price quote on the spot. His communication was top rate, He always called backed within a few hours of me contacting Him. The wood he used for the deck was grade A! Not that crap you get at Home Depot. His craftsmanship is top shelf as well. He had our deck built in two days. Well three days, but that was due to an overly anal retentive Inspector. He handled that with ease and class as well. I can't express how happy we are with our new deck. Please don't hesitate to call Rob at Sun-in-builders first for your projects. He will take all the stress and frustration out of your project. Thank you again Rob for an outstanding job!"

"They did a great job with repairing our shed roof. It has rained hard a couple of times after they repaired it and everything is dry. They were careful that everything associated with our leaky roof was repaired correctly. They came when they said they would. Price was also reasonable. I would definitely recommend them."

"Hands down the best company I had the pleasure of dealing with. They did some drywall repair and painting at my house, their work is excellent. They made the process simple and stress free. The crew that came to my house was amazing and trustworthy, I had no problem leaving them alone when I had to go to work. They also cleaned everything once they were done. They are 5 stars all the way. I won’t hesitate to give them a call for more work."

"Allen of Path Hardwood floors was great to deal with. We had a specific window of time before we moved into our new home to get the work done, and Allen was on time and on schedule throughout. The finished results were awesome (he matched the stairs/railings to the darker floors throughout the first floor of the house) and contrary to my expectations given the amount of sanding required, there was almost zero dust/dirt. Thorough cleanup afterwards as well. I would definitely recommend Path Hardwood Floors."

"Matt was great to work with. From my 1st phone call to the end of the job he was very attentive & prompt. We had custom cabinets, a custom bar, a built-in & stair rails that all required painting. We had spent hours researching cabinet options & when we decided to have them custom built, we knew we would need a professional painter with experience to finish them, and that is exactly what we got with Matt. Everything came out perfect! During the process Matt & his co-worker were a pleasure to deal with & have in our home.
Everyone that comes overs is so impressed with just how gorgeous it all looks. I am so glad we found Matt & his company! We look forward to using them again on future projects!

"We needed a new lower roof and once the winter weather broke we got put into the schedule and the work was done promptly. Took them only one day to rip off the roof, cut out three bad spots and replace with new plywood. Then re-shingle the roof and re-side one wall. It looks great and best of all no leaks. Everyone was very professional, provided us pictures of the damage they fixed and left the property as clean as they found it. Great experience!

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Norristown, PA

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.
