Why is Stair Refinishing a Good Option?
Sanding and staining stairs is a great option as it refreshes the appearance, repairs minor damage, and allows for color customization, all at a more cost-effective rate than complete replacement. It preserves the existing structure, potentially increases property value, and is environmentally friendly by minimizing waste. Additionally, it’s a quick and efficient process with minimal disruption.
What is the Stair Refinishing Procedure?
The sanding and staining procedure for stairs involves preparing the wood by removing existing finishes, dustless sanding to smooth the surface, cleaning, applying the chosen stain, allowing it to dry, and optionally sealing for added protection. Finally, reinstall any trim or elements for a refreshed appearance.
How Long Will Stair Refinishing Take?
The duration of sanding and staining stairs depends on factors such as the size of the staircase, the extent of damage, and the drying time for the chosen stain. Typically, the process may take 4-5 days to finish.
