"I couldn’t be happier with the custom bookcase Gaby built for me! From start to finish, he was incredibly professional, punctual, and a true pleasure to work with. The finished product exceeded all my expectations. the color, the quality, and the attention to detail were all absolutely perfect. You can tell he takes real pride in his work, and it shows in every inch of the shelves. Highly recommend if you're looking for craftsmanship that’s not only beautiful but built to last."

"Excellent, no problems. My car was new the first year I used the service and there has never been any damage during the transports. The men picking up and delivering the car have always been pleasant and cooperative. Both Ely and Guy at United Transport has been highly responsive to my needs. I would highly recommend this company."

We are just 2 guys that believe homeowners should get quality work where care has been taken to ensure the project will last. Jeremy and I believe in remodeling homes not houses. We would hate to put something on the house that just doesn't look right and expect payment for it. We have 32 years combined and have knowledge of all aspects of construction. We also like making the experience as easy and convenient for the homeowner as much as possible. We have no problem walking the homeowner through each step we are doing and what the end result will look like before we start. Your vision can become a reality. We are New Englanders through and through and know what it takes to make sure your home is protected from the crazy weather of New England.

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Tilton, NH

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.
