"Tony from ASAP Handyman did an outstanding job replacing our front stairs. Not only was the service inexpensive, but it was also completed in a timely manner. Tony's attention to detail was impressive, and he ensured that the area was cleaned up after the job was done. I highly recommend Tony and ASAP Handyman for any home improvement needs."

"Mag Selva personnel not only repaired damaged single, but inspected my whole roof and found several loose shingles that they repaired at the same time. Also found my ridge cap was damaged and ready to blow off. I had another company do some repairs from wind damage two different times recently and never found any of these problems or looked for them. This is the most professional, punctual, and knowledgeable company I have ever used for roofing. This will be the only company I will ever use from now on. And the only company I will ever recommend. They are the best."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Matt for the installation of an open staircase in my newly remodeled home, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results! From the very beginning, Matt demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise. He took the time to understand my vision and offered valuable insights that helped refine the design. His attention to detail was evident throughout the entire process, from the initial consultation to the final installation. The craftsmanship of the staircase is truly outstanding. The materials used are of the highest quality, and the finished product has transformed my space into a stunning focal point. I’ve received numerous compliments from friends and family, as I couldn’t wait to show it off! What I appreciated most was Matt’s commitment to customer satisfaction. He was always responsive to my questions and concerns, and worked diligently to ensure that everything was completed with utmost excellence. His professionalism and friendly demeanor made the entire experience enjoyable. I highly recommend Matt and his woodworking skills to anyone looking for top-notch craftsmanship and a seamless installation process. I am beyond satisfied with my new staircase and look forward to working with him again on future projects!"

"My gutters were cleaned, but the price I was quoted and paid was supposed to include repairs. After it rained there were several places that still needed repairs."

"Jeremy and his tile installer Jose (aka "Chewy") made this challenging job a rewarding experience in more ways than one. The project was to renovate three 1870ish fireplaces. For two of these, we were using a subway tile to emulate a Victorian-era look. The third involved a combination of slate and decorative tiles. Naturally in this old house, nothing is square, level, or plumb. Furthermore, we had a firm deadline to be met. And as so often happens with jobs like this, there were unhappy surprises requiring more work and time by the contractor than was expected. Despite all this, Jeremy and Chewy arranged their schedules (even working on a holiday) and used their creativity to overcome the issues and complete the job by the date Jeremy had committed to. Furthermore, although the project clearly was more time-consuming and complicated than anticipated, Jeremy honorably held to his bid price. The quality of the work was excellent, again particularly so when considering the construction issues this old house threw at the guys. Throughout the process, Jeremy kept us regularly posted and was always very professional and responsive - he uses his smart phone's capabilities to provide near real-time communication. Chewy has been installing tile for over 20 years, and his experience as well as aesthetic sensibility really shows. For our 3rd fireplace, we discovered that the slate tiles were about a quarter-inch larger both length and width than the decorative tiles; that required Chewy cutting the stone tiles to fit - slate is a challenging material to work with but Chewy handled it with ease . Chewy also ensured that the layout of the disparate slate tiles along with decorative tiles was done in the most eye-pleasing fashion. Altogether, the final result is spectacular. On Chewy's phone he keeps a library of past projects which proves that his design and craftmanship skills are nothing short of exceptional. I would not hesitate even one moment to give my highest recommendation to Jeremy and Chewy for any tile installation project. Thanks again, guys!"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Atlanta, GA

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.
