"All went very well. Michael was extremely responsive in providing a quote quickly and doing the work on a vowel aggressive schedule that he fit in with his other ongoing jobs. He was prompt, responsive and did a great job painting our newly installed window trim and some very old baseboards and door trim. I recommend Five Star!"

"First , very professional. Second the work was outstanding , was really impressed how much they paid attention to detail. What was most important is that how it was designed and came out exactly how I imagined. They were able to work around the pre-existing infrastructure and soffits did a great job installing the high hats with the right dimmers. Definitely would hire them again! The bonus no hidden charges said what it would cost explained how the costs can increase with unforeseen conditions which is understandable and the price point for the work excellent!!!!!!"

"Brian and his team was very responsive and patient as we changed design on them at least once.  The work was done a little after the expected 6 week time frame, probably due to the fact that they were moving facilities.  The quality of the cabinets is superb.  Couldn't be happier with the work.  Brian is a professional and responsive on phone and email.  Have no issues and highly recommend them for jobs.  While Caseworks is not the cheapest out there, they are probably worth the price.  They will customize nearly every aspect of the build and will work with other craftsmen to get the correct solution in place.

"Everything went as scheduled. Chris the owner came to the first appointment to measure. We made an appointment with Shanna to meet us at the stone yard to make our selection. We received the estimate a few days later and Chris returned to make the template. We paid half when we placed the order and paid the balance after the installation. One small piece of backsplash was missing from the desk, but they returned the next day and completed the installation."

"The contractor was late, had been given the wrong time. He said he would email the estimate and I did not get the first email, but I did get the second. There was a total price, no specifity about the products that would be used. As he had not been very responsive when I tried to speak with him I decided not to use the service.

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