"Nathan was excellent to work from the very beginning of our new office project. I had a list of repairs and some additional building code updates that needed to be done. He was very patient and understanding even when new things got added to his already long list of repairs. All of the work he agreed to was very good quality, done in a timely manner, and reasonably priced. I would highly recommend him and his company."

"Roof repair and handyman work was great. They showed up on time and were experienced with the work they were hired to do. I live in an older mobile home andI have several other things I'd like done but after several weeks of trying to get quotes and work scheduled I am giving up. I liked the staff members I met, they were friendly and serious about doing a good job. However, I have to assume they lack experience in some areas of interior construction at least on mobile homes."

"After purchasing a gas dryer at Sears to replace our old one, we were informed that Sears couldn't install it when it was delivered. We were fortunate to get ahold of 1st Response Plumbing; they came when they said they would and easily did the work that Sears couldn't. Derrick was great; we were really happy with the work he did and it was very reasonable as well. We will definitely use them again."

"It went great.  Jerry showed up, as scheduled and prioritized jobs to fit with the ever changing spring weather!  What would have taken me at least a month of procrastination, Jerry had finished in two days.  Since he has so many building and finishing skills, I think I will have him do some remodeling next!"

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