"Aaron with Blanning Family remodeling responded promptly to my needs. He was able to fix my leaky outdoor faucet quickly and you cannot even tell a repair was done. He did the work on a holiday (new years day) and there was not an additional fee. I would recommend Aaron for any remodeling or handiwork that is needed. I know I will not hesitate to call him again."

"They did an absolutely fantastic job. They went above and beyond! They hauled off all the cuttings except some for fire wood. Their cost was reasonable, and it was well worth every penny. They were very nice people, good at what they were doing, and I'd recommend them to anybody."

"Jon's work is as good as it gets! We have a rental property that we're preparing to put on the market. It needed a number of repair and update tasks completed, some small and some not-so-small. Everything from replacing siding to building a set of outside stairs to revamping a tile entryway to simply tightening some loose faucets. Jon has been ready, willing and more than able to meet every one of our requests, and his final work is exceptional. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again, and will be calling on him for the "checklist" at our own home, too."

"Jon, helped us pick new railing, but in new gates, add shoring for our sauna, and leveled the deck. He helped us pick materials, was very honest with prices, and did the job in the time he said he would complete it. He and his crew did an outstanding job and I recommend them to anyone needing a deck or deck work."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Olympia, WA

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.
