"JD came out because we have 4 crank windows and one was not working.  We also had a bedroom window that didn't appear to be sealed properly.  He ended up walking around and looking at each window in the house to evaluate any issues and he repaired the 1 crank window.  He provided an estimate to replace 1 and repair another.  We hired him and he ordered the window.  All of his reviews were great but when we went to put the deposit down he had us make the check out to a person.  Then when we received an email about the deposit it had a different persons name in it and it didn't match the original name.  I called him and asked him about it because it made me a little uncomfortable.  He communicated that he had a company taking care of his books some years back and they stole from him and it resulted in bad credit in the company name so the way around that over the years had been to make the check out to his mom or whomever but because she was going to be on vacation when my check arrived he had given me another name which I think was his sisters.  Not a big deal after all and I appreciated his honesty.  When he came back to do the actual work they were very professional and very thorough.  Clean up was excellent.  I would highly recommend them.

"It went well. The floors look very nice. One room ended up being a slightly different color, but it was not the company's fault. It was communicated after the floors were stained that one room was a different type of wood. The floors look amazing. Just wished they matched. Also, the owner was generous by offering a military discount and an Angie's List discount. We are still waiting on our wood grain vent covers though."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Platte City, MO

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.
