The significant steps to sanding and refinishing wood stairs

Sanding a staircase is far from easy. It is not a simple project that you can achieve with a palm sander. It’s not a good idea to treat it as a DIY project just for fun or to save some money, because if you make mistakes, it would ultimately cost you more to fix the stairs.

You need experienced professionals to work on the old worn out stairs with appropriate equipment. At Acorn Floor Sanding, we provide top-quality staircase sanding services in several areas across the UK.

Awkward shapes and tight corners make wood floor sanding a test for the patience even of the most experienced wood floor sanding specialist. 

 

If the stairs have been previously painted, our wood stair sanding service starts with stripping the old paint first. This is essential so a perfectly smooth and even surface of the stairs can be achieved later on. Next, the stairs sanding process itself is labour-intensive too. Unlike sanding a large surface of a floor, stairs are smaller and oddly shaped, which requires the usage of daintier equipment only and often involves sanding by hand for reaching all the nooks and corners of the space.
