"I’m very disappointed in this company and was told that this would happen. The first time everything was professional for the majority of my windows and they look great. They were not able to put in the last 6 windows in our house because the drain holes were put in wrong in the making of the replacement windows and the window crew had shown then to me to verify and them to me and stated that they would have to be reordered. They even took pictures of the original windows and put it on the app. This crew was great, clean and put in new wood for the bottom of my window seals. The second time another window installer came in but could not do the work because the same windows were sent and he could not consciously put in those windows because we would have problems. He even called the company and argued with them. Someone from the company told him to put them anyway. The 3rd time no one showed up and I did not receive a call until 5 hours later. The 4th time they sent a crew that does not speak English so I could not communicate with them that the windows were wrong and that the wood seals in the bottom of the windows needed to be replace first. I tried and got "I speak no English". The quality of work is not the same as first group and shows. I was warned that you would not replace the mistake windows and would keep sending a different group of installers until one of them puts them in. AND YOU DID JUST THAT! I wished I had read reviews and searched your company before I had POWER HRG put my windows in. I also have never received a handle for the screen door of the patio which I was told would happen. This was not what I had signed up for and require it to be as professional installed as was completed the same as the first windows. I feel cheated and let down by your company and taken advantage of! I left a message to customer service by email was never contacted back. All I have received was the that service was completed and now you have to pay. if all was done on the first day, this would have been a 5 star rating."

Family owned and operated since 1944, Wallside sells directly to the homeowner, manufacturing and installing its own products. With a factory/showroom located in Taylor, Mich., the vinyl window manufacturer services two thirds of the lower peninsula of Michigan and northwest portions of Ohio.
"Had a couple windows installed on Tues. June 20th. The screen on one was ripped, the installer said they would put a order in right away and have it out this week. There was no signoff's on work. Some of the caulk jobs around the windows are a little sub-par for my liking. Not the best quality work. Called the office for clarification on when my screen would be here this week. They had no knowledge of it, and it had to be ordered. Now it'll be July 8th before they can get out here. Had used their competitor (Hansons) for my last house. The comparison between the two is much different. Will probably go back to Hansons for the rest of the house here."

Yes—if the railing is still structurally sound, you can leave it in place. Start by tightening any loose fasteners and repairing minor damage, then sand, paint, or refinish the surface for a fresh look. Updating instead of replacing keeps costs down, shortens the project timeline, and still lets you meet local building-code standards. Just be sure the handrail feels solid before you commit to cosmetic upgrades.
Reusing spindles is a smart, budget-friendly move as long as they’re in good shape. Tell your contractor up front so they can remove and store the pieces safely. Once the new railing is in, sand and repaint or stain the spindles to match. Keeping the originals cuts material costs, reduces waste, and preserves a cohesive look—just make sure each spindle still meets local code for strength and spacing.
Building codes follow the 4-inch sphere rule, so balusters need to sit no more than 4 inches apart—about three per linear foot. That spacing keeps a 4-inch object from passing through, protecting kids and pets and keeping the railing up to code. Always double-check local requirements before you start, but using the 4-inch guideline will keep you in the safe zone.
Local building codes require that handrails be installed on stairways with four or more risers, ensuring safety and strong support. Even on stairs with fewer than four steps, handrails are strongly recommended for added durability and secure accessibility. Homeowners must consult local regulations to verify that handrail design, height, and placement conform exactly to official safety standards.
To determine the correct handrail measurements, measure the complete nosing line along the top of your steps and then mark a point between 34 and 38 inches above the floor for proper placement. This measurement ensures that your handrail is securely positioned, meets building code requirements, and provides optimal support and safety along the entire length of the staircase.
