Wood Stairs and Railings - Repair FAQs

Hiring a professional to refinish your wood stairs costs an average of 20% to 30% of the total project cost. While this adds to your budget, it's essential for preserving your staircase's integrity and safety. A certified expert can complete refinishing a 10-tread staircase in about two hours, providing a flawless finish that boosts your home's appeal and value.

The time it takes to refinish stairs depends on whether you do it yourself or hire a professional. A professional team can finish the core work in approximately two hours, while a DIY project may take up to a week due to careful sanding, drying, and sealing. Hiring a pro ensures the job is done efficiently and with high-quality results.
