Introduction

Sand, stain, and seal worn hardwood stairs and railings. WA Stair Guy provides stair refinishing for homeowners in Seattle, King County, and nearby communities in the Seattle area.

About the Service

Stair refinishing restores existing hardwood by sanding off the old finish, repairing small damage, and applying new stain and protective coats. It is a cost-effective option when the wood is still in good shape. More about stair refinishing

Local context

Why Homeowners in Seattle Choose This Service

Many Seattle homes have hardwood stairs that are structurally sound but worn on the surface. Refinishing is a practical way to refresh older craftsman homes with original stairs without replacing good wood.

Seattle's housing stock ranges from early 1900s Craftsman bungalows and Tudors to midcentury ramblers, split-levels, and newer townhomes.

We serve neighborhoods such as Ballard, Capitol Hill, Queen Anne, Wallingford, right here in Seattle.
