Handrails
The most handled timber in the home, often worn to bare wood. They are sanded smooth and stained. A tough lacquer keeps them protected.

Staircase, Railing and Banister Staining in Dubai
A staircase is often the centrepiece of a villa, and worn handrails and patchy treads spoil it. We sand and stain treads, handrails, spindles and newel posts, matching the floor or giving the whole staircase a new colour.

Keeping Stairs Usable
Stairs are often the only route upstairs. We finish alternate treads and protect handrails while drying, so the family can still use the stairs carefully.
Handrails need a hard, smooth finish that stays comfortable to hold. We sand between coats for a silky feel.

Staircase, Railing and Banister Staining: FAQs
Which Stain Colours Are Available?
We stock natural, oak, teak, walnut, mahogany, ebony, grey and white-wash tones from trusted brands, and can mix custom shades. We test samples on your timber before staining.
Which Finish Is Best: Matte, Glossy or Satin?
Matte looks natural and hides marks, satin is a practical middle ground for furniture and doors, and gloss is the most wipeable but shows scratches. Most Dubai homes choose matte or satin.
How Often Should Wooden Surfaces Be Recoated?
Indoor wood is usually recoated every few years. Outdoor timber in Dubai sun needs re-oiling or restaining every 6 to 12 months, and handrails or floors in busy areas every 12 to 24 months.
What Is the Difference Between Wood Painting, Staining and Varnishing?
Paint covers the wood with an opaque colour and hides the grain. Stain soaks in and changes the colour while keeping the grain visible. Varnish or lacquer is a clear protective coat on top. Many jobs combine a stain with a varnish or oil.
