Refinishing

Staircase refinishing near you

Sanding, staining and durable topcoats that erase years of wear without replacing a single tread.

What's included

Scope of work

  • Dust-contained sanding on treads, rails and landings
  • Custom stain matching to existing floors
  • Low-VOC commercial-grade topcoats
  • Anti-slip finish options available

When refinishing beats replacing

If the treads are solid hardwood and structurally sound, sanding and refinishing restores them for a fraction of a replacement and takes two to three days.

Color changes

Going darker is straightforward; going lighter or gray takes extra sanding passes. We sample on your actual treads before committing.

Cure and use

Waterborne finishes let you walk the stairs in socks within hours and return to normal use in a couple of days.

Questions

Common questions

Can painted stairs be refinished to natural wood?

Often yes, though paint removal adds labor. We test a tread first and tell you honestly what is underneath.

How messy is stair refinishing?

Sanders are vacuum-shrouded and openings are sealed, so dust stays in the stairwell.
