"This project was our second project with Ruben. It entailed installation of a new walking path to our screen porch and the addition of handrails on each side of the steps to match the handrails on the front of our home. Ruben subcontracted the stone work for the walkway and managed the handrail portion of the project himself. He oversaw the entire process from beginning to end. It was all done in a matter of a few days and the quality was great. We are very pleased with the project and will definitely hire Ruben for future home projects. "

"This week we hired Taylor?d Services to install 2 decorative wood beams in our new home in Woodstock on our main bedroom 12 foot high vaulted ceiling. From the time we met Cody we connected with his pleasantry and knowledge of doing contracting services. He accepted our job graciously and he won us over instantly with his genuine and pleasant personality. Our job was scheduled quickly and finished in one day. The end product was exactly what my wife and I envisioned: 2 beautifully stained pine wood beams, complimenting the vaulted ceiling. Definitely a WOW feature when walking into the bedroom. Cody?s crew worked efficiently, preparing the house for this project by lining the floors and building blocks in the attic rafters to insure that the beams would hang securely. They definitely knew what they were doing. At the end, the clean up went well too. We highly recommend Taylor?d Services and will not hesitate to use them again in the future."

"A piece had to be custom made so technicians had to come back. However, they came ahead of schedule and fixed the problem quickly and very, very reasonably. Despite the freezing temperatures! Will definitely hire again."

"it was such a pleasant experience working with Tony. He arrived early and go.t right to work after discussing my needs and wants. I was surprised when I went to Angi and requested for a handyman to set up rods in my closet. Several companies emailed me and only wanted to design new closet space for me, when all I wanted was a handyman. Tony was the only real handyman who contacted me. I would refer ASAP handyman to all my friends and family."

I also appreciated how well he maintained the workspace and cleaned up thoroughly. He was friendly, professional, and kept everything clean. I highly recommend him for reliable, efficient service and will definitely be using him again for future projects."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Canton, 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.
