"Wow! Manuel Gomez exceeded our expectations! Mag Selva repaired our backyard bridge and made it look new in less time than projected. We hired him immediately afterwards to build a deck off of our sunroom. His attention of framing was impressive. Manuel hand-picked the wood and the finished deck looks beautiful."

"It was incredible. Tony and team handled everything I needed done and did it with professionalism. He is exceptional at doing it right and repaired some work done by other bad contractors. There was always great communication and clear explanation of alternative solutions as well as ways that might save in cost. The overall cost was great and less than competitors that weren’t nearly as good in quality. He is my go-to handyman and I highly recommend to others."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Matt for the installation of an open staircase in my newly remodeled home, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results! From the very beginning, Matt demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise. He took the time to understand my vision and offered valuable insights that helped refine the design. His attention to detail was evident throughout the entire process, from the initial consultation to the final installation. The craftsmanship of the staircase is truly outstanding. The materials used are of the highest quality, and the finished product has transformed my space into a stunning focal point. I’ve received numerous compliments from friends and family, as I couldn’t wait to show it off! What I appreciated most was Matt’s commitment to customer satisfaction. He was always responsive to my questions and concerns, and worked diligently to ensure that everything was completed with utmost excellence. His professionalism and friendly demeanor made the entire experience enjoyable. I highly recommend Matt and his woodworking skills to anyone looking for top-notch craftsmanship and a seamless installation process. I am beyond satisfied with my new staircase and look forward to working with him again on future projects!"

"Javier and his team did a fantastic job on our sod install. We are so pleased with the results. They have gone above and beyond including digging out a huge rock buried in the soil (another landscaper offered to place sod over it), utilize extra pieces of sod to patch up a few areas in the front yard and install river rocks to help with drainage. I got several quotes for this project and am glad I chose Javier and his team. I feel quite confident recommending this company."

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