"Mica did a wonderful job on my warped gate. He was easy to work with and could see what needed to be done. He had the tools need and and took care of the problem. If I have any more problems with my wooden fence or other handyman situations around the house, I definitely will call Mica. Thank you, Angi! J Terry"

"Overall very happy with the work. Probably because we began the work in the dead of winter (January), he was able to begin as soon as we hired him. Brad usually gets his workers started in the mornings and then leaves to monitor or bid other jobs, but we were quite pleased and comfortable with Wade, who has been with him for many, many years, and his helper, Jesse. They were courteous and very careful with our belongings. Every afternoon before they left, they put furniture back in place, even when we told them it wasn't necessary. This is important to Brad and is something he stresses.
In the kitchen and bathrooms, we had wallpaper. After examining it, the decision was made to paint over it, rather than butcher the walls trying to remove it. They sealed and sanded all seams, then primed with Kilz before painting. Honestly, if you didn't know there was wallpaper under the paint, you'd never notice. Excellent job.
The cabinet painting was an adventure. My bad, but we didn't decide to paint them until after the walls in those rooms were already painted. They had to take the doors offsite to paint them because they were being sprayed and had to be laid out to dry. This happened during a very wet February, and trying to dry them at our house would have been impossible. That was the only time things were not cleaned up at the end of the day, and that was only because they very carefully closed off the rooms they were working in with plastic and tape.
Great job painting the exterior. And we were more than happy with the job they did on our fence. We had thought we'd have to replace or paint it, but once they pressure washed it and then stained and sealed it, it looks like new. Several neighbors have talked to him about doing the same to theirs.

"Pro Building handled my niece's insurance claim. She had severe water damage to her house from a HVAC unit malfunction. I referred them to Pro Building because they did work for me before and did a great job for me. Pro Building and their exceptional team came in and not only dried out the property but also moved them out and put them into temporary housing (billed the carrier-not my niece). They took care of everything with the carrier and were able to get everything paid for with them only owing their deductible ($1,000). When I tell you this house turned out incredible, I mean it! They did such a great job! They went above and beyond to help in every way! 10/10 would refer them to anyone needing any kind of insurance claim!"

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