"The experience was mediocre. The owner was the employee, and he did a mediocre job. He was okay as a person, but I would expect him to be able to fix the garage door. But he came in to lubricate the rollers and to replace whatever he needed to replace. He just couldn't get the external key pad to function. He wasn't abrasive or anything.  They were okay. I wouldn't rush to use them."

"It went wonderfully. On my initial call to Gary, owner of the company, we set an appointment time and day for him to give us an estimate on the pool bath door change-out. Gary arrived on time and gave us a fair price estimate for the labor costs. We hired him because we could see immediately he really knows what he's doing On the day of installation, Gary picked up the new door from the big box store, installed it, and it looks great. He's knowledgeable, professional, courteous and we'll call him again when we do additional improvements."

"After hurricane Irma I had 5 huge trees that fell and needed to be cut up and brought to the curb. Justin did a wonderful job of cutting and removing both the trees but also the accompanying branches and debris. It was in the mid 90's and near 100% humidity. He worked tirelessly for hours in the hot sun to get the job done. I also hired him to help me tarp the holes in my roof from the winds. It will likely be months before a roofer can fix my roof and I am confident the roof is secure until is replaced. I had two large wooden gates that blew down. He reinstalled the posts and framed out the wooden fences back in great shape."

"The crew did a great job in removing the existing roof (shingles, underlayment, and damaged plywood), and hauling off the debris. The existing ridge vents and drip edge were also replaced. New Owens Corning shingles were installed. Care was exercised to save existing gutters, soffit and fascia. All work was completed per Florida building codes, and included obtaining and posting permits with the city. Once the job on the roof was completed, the site was magnetically swept for nails. A wind mitigation report was prepared and delivered. The overall job was completed exceptionally well."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Cape Coral, FL

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.
