"Juan did a beautiful job of my staircase remodel. His attention to detail is impeccable and he knows his trade expertly. He was very communicative about everything and there was no hidden items that ever came up. He showed up and completed the work exactly when he said and in every detail as discussed. His pricing was extremely reasonable, and fair. I am looking at quotes from him for more flooring work may have as welI. He would be my preference to hire again."

"Let me start off by saying that I was "That Guy" that needed a miracle. We have been remodeling our house and have done a lot of projects ourselves. We were in the middle of this project when all of a sudden my wife finds a house and we put money down. Our timeline was very short. We had 2 days to get our house ready. J&D Woodwork were 3 of 18 (and I am not exaggerating ) companies that even called me back. 1 was very slow to respond to me, and one wouldn't answer calls (would only text. Very unprofessional) David and his team were in one day and started the very next day. He was booked out, but was able to move some things around, and knock out the project. They say you cant have a good price, quality work, and fast all at the same time. These guys proved that to be wrong. I got all of it! In our new home we will be putting in pergola and will be using J&D Woodwork. We will refer them out to everyone that we can. I promise, you will not regret hiring these guys! I can't say it enough!"

"Excellent, no problems. My car was new the first year I used the service and there has never been any damage during the transports. The men picking up and delivering the car have always been pleasant and cooperative. Both Ely and Guy at United Transport has been highly responsive to my needs. I would highly recommend this company."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Hempstead, TX

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.
