"Our home project started by a referral from a local door company that we purchased a custom screen double door from and they sent over Michael to complete the install. Not only did he impress us with his eyes of detail on the product defects from the factory, he also made sure that the install was over and above satisfaction. In fact, we were so pleased to find out that he is a man of many trades and has a long history of successful construction projects in his portfolio. We were in need of installing a large deck rail on the front of our home facing the lake and together we came up with a beautiful product that not only enhanced the homes value and beauty, but also shows a very high standard of quality and craftsmanship. The talents that Michael and his son, Jacob, brought to our project make us very proud to enjoy not only the finished product but entirely changed the overall look of home. His very refined finishes were beyond impressive and his start to finish was the most professional I've ever encountered. He and his son, Jacob, are a team to recon with... I dare you to compare to any other installs in this quaint Rocky Mountain town in Pagosa Springs, Colorado and the surrounding Durango area. "Handy Man" is the best of the best!!!! In closing, I know everyone wants to know about labor costs... you will more than get what you pay for and you wont regret it!!! The quality is first class and the finishes are impeccable!! Time management was exactly what was estimated. The job site was treated with utmost respect and care was given to everything around the project and left in the most pristine condition after the project was complete!! Call Handy Man, "GET IT FIXED" for all of your home and commercial projects!! Thank you so very much "Handy Man" for such a beautiful product that we will enjoy for many many years to come!!!!

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Pagosa Springs, CO

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.
