"We had an excellent experience with Much Better Construction. The old external stairs and railings up to our back ADU badly needed both step resurfacing and rot damage repair all around, including entirely replacing a major support post. Isaac and his team were just great -- timely, easy to work with, the crew was super friendly, and the work quality was great. Very happy we found you!"

"My husband and I needed a contractor to reconstruct our front porch which was heavily damaged during the southern California fire in December 2017. We were incredibly lucky to have found Rick Moat and cannot praise his work highly enough. Not only is Rick a wonderfully talented artisan, but he possesses an incredible work ethic that seems to be in short supply these days. Rick had to reconstruct several porch pillars and railings between the posts all of which necessitated several painstaking assemblies of wood. There was also extensive prep work on our porch ceiling, the paint of which had blistered extensively from the heat of the fire. Rick worked tirelessly and painstakingly on each step of the project. He also did a wonderful job of fixing our upstairs porch. We are thrilled with the results of the restoration and cannot recommend Rick enough to potential customers who need detailed, expert work on their home. Rick is very pleasant to deal with and his fees are very competitive. We look forward to having Rick work on future projects for us in the future."

"Our roof was in bad shape and we needed to have it replaced. I had gotten estimates and decided to go with Home Pro Remodeling. Emil and Brian were our contact people for the project. Emil was very professional and paid attention to our concerns. He worked with us through the entire project to our complete satisfaction. Brian is extremely courteous and helpful as well! The project went very smoothly, was completed before the initial project end date, and the results were beyond our expectations. The job turned our beautifully! Our new roof looks FANTASTIC! Our neighbors have commented to us how great it looks. We are very pleased with our experience with Home Pro Remodeling and would definitely recommend them."

"I was having the interior of my house remodeled including the replacement of all door and hardware. My paint contractor recommended Mark. Mark was responsive to phone calls and came to the house to discuss the project. He was very helpful with his suggestions. When I went to Conejo Hardwood to look at the various doors, casings and hardware, the salesman spoke highly of Mark as a craftsman. This opinion was borne out by the workmanship Mark has demonstrated. If there was a problem with a wall Mark would show how it impacted his work and then set about correcting the problem. If we had a question about anything he was patient in explaining what we saw. We did not use prehung doors; each door was an individual process. Very satisfied with Mark's work and highly recommend him."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Woodland Hills, 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.
