"Steve with Lakeside Construction was professional and handled all aspects of getting us a new roof installed. From start to finish we were impressed with this company. They handled our new roof replacement including insurance submission with punctuality and professionalism. We can't be happier with all aspects of this company including the office/billing staff and project manager. We would happily recommend Lakeside Construction to anyone in need of a new roof!"

"Reggie did a great job. All the popcorn ceiling removal and repairs to drywall look nice and smooth, and all the paint (ceilings, wall, trim, and doors) looks great. He finished the job in the estimated time frame, and I would gladly hire him again in the future."

"Excellent. David has a conscience, which places him in a lonely category of builders. He wants to make sure it is done right, and he will communicate. Be patient because good work takes time and understand he does this for a LIVING, not a charity. In other words....be reasonable."

"Juan did a great job! I hired him to do the backsplash in my kitchen and I was very pleased with his work! He has a great attention to detail and wants you to be happy with his work! He is definitely more than just a handyman he’s a craftsman. He also painted the wall and the trim and did a great job. I am definitely planning on using him again in the future. I think you would be pleased with his work and his work ethic!"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Columbia, SC

A pro can set an attic ladder in two to four hours, including framing adjustments and finish work. Complex installs—like cutting a brand-new opening or trimming joists—land toward the high end of that window. Tackle the job yourself and plan on a full day, plus an extra pair of hands, since one mis-measurement can slow everything down.

Local building codes drive this decision. If your ceiling has a fire-rating requirement, the ladder must match it to maintain that protective barrier. A rated unit slows flame spread between the attic and living space, buying valuable evacuation time and limiting damage. 

Because codes vary by city and even by neighborhood, check with the permitting office or ask your contractor before you order the ladder.

Aluminum ladders are light, rust-proof, and easy to maneuver, making them a practical choice for most households. Wood models handle higher weight loads and can match traditional trim if aesthetics top your list, but they’re heavier and need occasional upkeep. 

Compare the ladder’s duty rating, your ceiling height, and how often you’ll use it. The best option is the one that balances safety, convenience, and the look you want without stretching the budget.
