"These men did great work! Came out to do the estimate, told me I didn't need full deck replacement, and charged what they quoted. (That last part is a big deal.) I recommend them highly!"

"Alan is a nice guy and a hard worker. However, job is incomplete and he has ghosted me. 1. Did not finish lattice strips on screen job. 2. Used carpet remnant used for non skid material on ramp. 3. Repair leaks from work done on roof. Photos attached. We made arrangements for him to finish up and he has ghosted me. So disappointing because he's a nice guy."

"I didnâ t know the best way to describe all the work that Mr. Davison has done for me. He has came in and replaced a front door, installed new windows, and sheetrocked for me. Heâ s come in time of me panicking to get the house in order. Heâ s picked up supply orders Iâ ve made last minute (I procrastinated ordering a front door). Heâ s always consistent with showing up. He works proficiently and has updated me with progress photos when I havenâ t been home to see the work being done. I feel like his work and his cost is honest. He charges for the love of the job and not to pull one over on you. He has been trustworthy and respectful to my wishes and visions of my home remodel."

"We had a lot of rain.  They even worked in the rain some of the time.  Donny and employees were extremely professional and always polite.   He had already scheduled a vacation and understandably did take it in July.
There was only 1 small misunderstanding about the ramp for the building.  The elevation was not gradual enough-- but Donny and "company" tore it down and redid the elevation of the ramp.  It is now perfectly suited for short people (and old).  LOL
He did communicate with me about  shelf heights, potting area, electrical receptacles, fan and light placement --also the deck, pergola and ramp as well as the makeover of the front porch and all the hand rails. In other words, everything. 
Every  time I called Donny and left a message he always called me back ASAP.   If he wasn't on phone, he talked to me then. This was greatly appreciated.
This is a very good, dependable company and I think anyone who hires them will be well satisfied.

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Waverly, AL

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.
