"The crew was patient and focused on protecting the items I needed moved. They are not in a hurry, which was important to me due to the nature of the furniture being moved (family heirlooms). I would recommend Honesty & Fidelity Transportation."

Although my husband and I were here and watched them try really hard to located the bangning pipe, the pipes still seem to bang a lot. (My husband later did some further padding of pipes outside the wall near the hot water heater and that seemed to help a little) The drywall repair was fine,  but the paint job , left to a helper, had to be redone.

The attempt to fix the gap in the double doors by thick weatherstripping and lifting one door only made it impossible to open and close the door .  In order to open the door, my husband had to rip off most of the foam weatherstripping and to lock it again, he has to use something to lift the one door enough to get the  lock to line up with the latch .  We now believe that the cause is settling of the house and we will need new doors and new framing.  It would have been better if we had just been told "this is not fixable" instead of the attempt that cost us over $200 and made things worse

"We did a total remodel on our home back in the spring of 2013. Joel Dawson was a sub contractor on our job. He completely gutted all 3 of our bathrooms. Joel did all the work on those and did a great job. He replace every toilet and installed new shower and tub surrounds in each bathroom. He also installed new ceramic tile for the floor in each bathroom. They all look great. Our home is a bit old and posed many problems during the remodel but Joel was always able to overcome every obstacle with ease. He also installed a new front door for us and did crown molding and shoe molding for my downstairs living area. We also changed the placement of the entry door for our downstairs bathroom and Joel built a new wall and installed a new door there too. I would highly recommend Joel Dawson for any contracting needs. He is very punctual and gets work done on time and on budget. He also cleans up after himself really good which is important in a contractor.

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Bridgeport, AL

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.
