"I cannot speak highly enough of Tom and Brad Green of Colonial Restorations. We have lived in our antique house for 16 years now, and like most old homes, some of its previous repairs were good, some not so good. Tom Green worked on this house for its previous owners, and his work was, by far, the best in the house. So, we continued to use Colonial - Tom, then Tom and Brad - as we learned the ropes about caring for an old house - our first house, old or new. Over the years, they have replaced sills and posts and beams, and rebuilt parts of our loose stone foundation. Most recently, they replaced the last original posts in our basement, (one of which was a tree trunk still with bark on it), including pouring new custom footings, in advance of our finally cementing the dirt floor. The work here is never easy - nothing is level, nothing is square - but the Greens' end result has always been beautiful - strong and made to last. Their prices are fair and without hidden costs....maybe not the lowest bid you might get, but you know it's a real bid that they will stand behind. They triage projects for us, giving us an idea of what other items will likely need attention in the next few years. We're not done with this house yet....we've never won the lottery, and there's always another repair..... and plan to use them again soon. I feel confident knowing that the next owners of this house, whoever they might be, will see the quality of the work and know that we cared enough to have the right people help us with the ongoing repair and maintenance of a 275+ year old house. I am a real person, a real customer, with no ties to the company, and was more than happy to write this review."

"Matt was great. Went over the work that was done in detail and did an exceptional job. He was able to make matching plinth blocks that the previous home owner started on some of the door casings. I would recommend him for any unfinished carpentry project."

"It went great.  It took me a while to get them out but not because of them it was my schedule was the problem.  The price was fine. I think initially when they came they sent the guy out to power wash the house before painting. The guy that they sent out he didn't understand what work needed to be done so he didn't bring the right equipment. So he had to come back and do it.  In the end they made everything right to feel good about everything that happened."

"I called to cancel it because, there was a lot of miscommunication. There was not enough understanding of what I needed and what they were doing. Then they tried to help me out, it turned out OK in the end and it got resolved. It took me a while to call them because, I had surgery. They were responsive and good. What I had done took longer, so I had to pay another $400. I would have done more research, or gotten more bids on it. They were pleasant, and responsible. For me, it would have been better if they had sent someone at first, before they did the job. I would have shown them what needed to be done, and they would have understood me better. They were punctual."

"Installation of Bathroom Grab Bars, and Installation of outside Back Steps Railing: Outstanding experience, would highly recommend them. Define the job well with them: they will listen well, and provide a good solution. They welcomed my inputs for the jobs, which included a detailed paper and photos. Where my ideas left off, they took off splendidly: Both installing the bathroom grab bars, and the back steps railing, needed ultra attention to safe, solid installation, and they provided both jobs, with good looking results at reasonable costs and timely completion. They asked us to test the grab bars and the step rails in their presence, to assure they were completely what we needed. The grab bars installation was on an old wall of lath and plaster, and they found wall studs for solid mounting. I provided the grab bars, they provided the mounting know-how. This took about 1.5 hrs. The back steps rail solution for a short flight (2) of outside cement steps provided a rock solid installation using good looking pipe and 2x4 cedar studs: about 4 hours work. This was a good example of how they completed my idea of what the railings would look like: my idea was a bit hazy! Their work was high quality and innovative, totally working with us to provide a very safe result, that looked great too. They were very polite, listened well, talked over solutions well, until we all knew what the results would achieve in safety and looks. Professional, on phone and on site. The timeliness was good: 1 week between initial contact / estimate to job completion. Job wrap up with us was good, assuring, and personable, Cleanup was good. Cost writeup was very complete: they finely detailed all their labor and material costs, so all was accounted for with no surprises: the total was about $700 less than the estimate! In conclusion this experience exuded real professionalism, know-how, and commitment to the customer; and I will want them here again. I would recommend them to others too."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Scappoose, OR

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.
