The company doesn't skip a beat from scheduling, arrivals, accomplishment of service, clean up and invoicing. They don't bring coffee and bagels."

"The process of working with Pedro was very smooth. We had some twenty year old outside stairs connected to a deck that had wood rot and needed to be replaced. He provided a timeline and estimate and the work was completed accordingly."

"I needed someone to do some work on my small trailer and Brad was the man. He cut and removed the old metal mesh and installed wooden boards. Very happy with the end result and he got the job done in a few hours."

"Mike did several home renovations for us. We love our bathrooms, deck, our living room especially with the fireplace mantel and hearth updates. He improved and installed our tile, wood flooring, and many room updates throughout our home. He is honest, dependable, and reasonably priced. He shows up on time and keeps us updated during his projects. We would not have anyone else work on our home in regards to home improvements, carpentry, and his expertise. We highly recommend Mike and trust that he will not steer us wrong."

"This is the second time I've used their services and it was exactly like the first- exceptional. I paid for a full days work and received a discount for using them a second time. I received the estimate on the 25th and they were able to come on the 26th.
This company is very good at taking down tough trees without bringing in cranes, etc. and cleaning up after the fact. There was probably 3 inches of sawdust on everything right after the trees came down; and once they finished up, you didn't see but a speck of sawdust. I'll definitely use them again and highly recommend them.

"We called Wildlife Evictors based on a friend's recommendation and were not disappointed. There were multiple raccoons driving us crazy making noise in the soffit area on the back of our house. Shinyan came over, found the entry point and installed an exit door, but some of the raccoons wouldn't leave after mangling the exit door. I suggested he install the exit door where the vent is located, so Shinyan installed the exit door there, and they left shortly thereafter. After we were assured they were definitely gone, Shinyan came back and reinstalled the vent. He repairs the house entry points with metal and paints over the metal to blend in with the house. He is punctual and followed up so I didn't have to call him to come back. We were impressed."

"I was ecstatic to find someone willing to come out and do the job, considering that it was literally right before Christmas and I was in a panic. A lot of other contractors were either already shut down for the holidays or finishing up jobs in order to shut down for the holidays and not taking on anymore new projects. Unfortunately, they finished late in the evening and the lighting wasn't great in the room, so I couldn't tell until the next day that most of the room needed another coat of paint. The original color was bleeding through. I ended up repainting half the room plus another coat of paint on the chair rail. Bear Mountain did reimburse me some money for this."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Ball Ground, GA

Pressure-treated lumber is the most inexpensive deck railing material. It's a cost-effective option that offers a good balance of durability and affordability for budget-conscious homeowners. Pressure-treated wood meets essential safety standards while keeping upfront costs low. In contrast, vinyl, polyurethane, and composite materials tend to be more expensive but offer additional aesthetic and maintenance benefits.

To calculate how much deck railing you need, measure the length of all the edges of your deck where railings are required (excluding any openings or areas bordered by the house). Since precise measurements are crucial, it's a good idea to hire a professional. Contractors have the expertise to accurately measure and install your deck railings.

In most cases, safety standards require railings on steps with more than four risers, steps wider than 44 inches, and decks over 30 inches high, measured from the next level down.

Railings should also be between 34 and 38 inches tall. Regulations can vary based on your location, so it's important to check your local building codes or consult a local contractor. There are also rules about the size of the gaps between pickets and between the bottom of the railing and the deck.

Before installing a railing on your front porch, you'll need to check local permitting requirements. Local building authorities may have specific codes that require a permit—or, in some cases, no permit at all. Reviewing your city's guidelines and consulting a qualified professional will help ensure your project meets all legal and safety standards, preventing any unexpected issues during inspections.

Deciding whether to repair or replace your deck railings depends on the extent of the damage and whether you can match new materials to the old ones. If you have minor issues, repair might be an option. However, when it's challenging to match existing materials, replacing the railings can give your deck a fresh start and reset its lifespan. A decking expert can assess your railings and recommend the best course of action to improve safety and maintain a cohesive look.
