"Greg is INCREDIBLE!!! He did a FABULOUS job BOTH times I hired him. He installed a huge reclaimed wood barn door on track system inside my home and it looks beautiful! Greg came out again when I needed a new front door replacement. He did another TERRIFIC job in removing the old front entry door and replacing it with my gorgeous new front entry door. His workmanship is impeccable, and he is prompt, courteous and has a great personality. I highly recommend Greg for all construction needs, he is exemplary in every facet of his profession. Greg is very reasonable with his quotes and estimates. I am very pleased to have found him for my construction needs. Thank YOU Greg!"

"Edit: After seeing my review, SavOn sent a team to come back and fix all of the issues. The window has been sealed, the trim has been properly attached, and the areas have been repainted. We are now 100% happy with the results. We needed some pieces of siding repaired or replaced. After reviewing several bids, we went with Sav On. They came by a few days later on 8/25 and tore out the old siding and wood, leaving the remnants next to the side of the house. After they took it down, they went around to try to find it at a local retailer. It had to be special ordered. On 8/31, they were back they were back to install the siding. They only did the section by our bathroom window and were here for a max of 2 hours. Siding around and under the guest bathroom window was removed and replaced on 9/1. We could hear the nail gun going off and were glad that the plastic would be removed. A light bulb in bathroom was broken due to vibrations from the nail gun. When I heard the glass break, I ran upstairs and the guy installing was surprised to see me. The window had been removed for some reason that I still don't understand. He didn't think anyone was home, but he did apologize for the lightbulb. When it was quiet for an extended period, I went back upstairs to see if the window had been replaced. That is when I noticed that it was set incorrectly, very off center, and one of the glass panels was cracked. The window sill was extremely dirty and there was chipped paint everywhere. There was also a nail protruding from the top of the window. I sent an email to Ivan telling him this was completely unacceptable. On 9/2, a crew showed up to do the texturing, I told them not to do anything before Ivan came to see the damage. He showed up a few minutes later to inspect and said they would take care of it. A guy from their fix-it crew called me the following day to schedule a time to come take a look at what they needed to do to make it better. They showed up on 9/4 to reset the window, remove the nail, seal, and paint the sill. Taylor called to say someone would be over on Friday 9/11 to do an estimate for the glass. That guy came and went in just a few minutes, which was nice, but we were still in limbo about what was next. Taylor called me on 9/15 saying that the glass would be replaced on the 16th. The tech came and went pretty quickly and we had a fresh panel of glass. I got up the following Saturday, 9/19, and heard commotion outside the bathroom window. A team had stopped by to do the texturing. We are now a month and a day out from when the estimate was signed. 9/21, Ivan called asking if we had any paint that matched. We had told him twice already that we did not have any. They came by, got a sample from the removed pieces, and were back later that day to paint. 9/22, we received a notice from our HOA regarding construction garbage next to our house. I sent yet another email to Ivan asking that they please remove it all. He returned with another guy 9/23 to remove all the junk and do some touch up painting. When they thought they were done, Ivan said to me, It looks pretty good, does it not?* I asked him about all the staples from the plastic sheeting that were still in the accent wood. He looked to the guy standing next to him and asked why there were so many. Anyway, they said they would remove them. I also pointed out all the visible holes from where the nails were put in, he said they would take care of those. They only took care of the ones that can be seen from the front of the house. The staples were removed and we can not really see where they were, holes are still visible on the left and right sides of accent wood, and on the framing by the roof where they replaced the vertical pieces. Paint is streaking and wood is not flush to the house. Buyer Beware."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Palm Springs, CA

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.
