"I had water damage in the ceiling below my upstairs bathroom. Chris did an excellent job, not only repairing the drywall, but matching the texture in my ceiling (no stencil is available for this anymore). He took the time to match and blend, and you would not know this has been replaced. He and his crew were on time, courteous, and his estimate for this repair was very reasonable. I would highly recommend his company, and have already given his number to friends and family."

Hi there! I have about 9 years of experience with home remodeling, house flips, and currently I am focused more on carpentry (custom closets, interior/exterior trim, etc.) and flooring. I am still open to most home repair needs. I am new to Angi, but feel free to check out some photos of my work in the project photos. I am also willing to share more photos. Feel free to email me at JMDhomeservices1@gmail.com or call/text at 3179032308. Thanks!

"Andy showed up as scheduled and assessed what needed to be done to lower the oven.  He and his partner removed the oven from the opening and did an initial modification to lower the oven.  Once all of the bracing was in place, they reinstalled the oven and we checked to see if that resolved the problem.  We determined that the oven was still too high, so they removed the oven again and further modified the cabinet by removing one drawer.  They modifed the bracing, reinstalled the oven, and we determined that this solved the problem.  That left us with a large opening above the oven which Andy determine could be filled by moving the drawer up into that opening.  Once the drawer was in place, Andy was able to determine what needed to be done to make a new drawer front that would cover the opening.  The drawer front he made perfectly matched the style of the existing drawer fronts as well as the stain color.  We are very happy with the work and could not believe how everything matched when the installation was complete.  We would highly recommend Andy for any cabinetry or carpentry projects.

"Owner Matt McQuiston was friendly and thorough in preparing our quote, and kept in touch throughout the project. His crew went about their tasks with quiet good humor and attention to detail. I would hire them again. He deals in fiberglass windows and doors, and they appear to be excellent products."

"They've done a lot of work for us and we have referred them to a lot of people. We are really pleased with his work and his crew.

 About two weeks after they replaced our roof, they came and installed laminate flooring. The owner, Tim, came and checked on how the floors were coming. He actually got down on the floor and looked really close at one board because he thought he saw a scratch. He did see a scratch so he had the team pull up the board and replace it. He not only replaced the board, but he had to pull out several boards to get to the scratched board. We are pleased with Tim and his work ethic."

"Jason Walls was very responsive in coming out and providing a quote to do replacement of exterior trim work on our home.  He was able to start in our timeline with our painters and worked with them on identifying clapboards and other trim that needed replacing.  His expertise and knowledge on materials to use and resources was helpful.  He worked with us on identifying some problem areas and came up with solutions to best solve these areas.  Although during the job more areas were identified for replacement, he always kept us informed as to what extra material was needed and how that would affect his cost and job timeline.  He did a great job of cleaning up each day and at the end of the job.  I would hire him again for any future woodworking needs.

"Bill and his brother did a great job! First, Bill came out a week before our scheduled date to see what we were working with. He gave me advice how to remove the stairs myself. On the installation day, they went above and beyond with reattaching the stairs. The stairs are more sturdy than they were before, they are now even, and they corrected the height of the first step (before, the first step was too steep), he also installed a second hand rail to keep the stairs up to code. Again, he went above and beyond and the price was very reasonable. Excellent customer service, and Bill is an honest and upstanding guy! I will definitely hire him in the future if need be.

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Clayton, IN

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.
