Acadian Windows and Siding is Louisiana's leader for replacement windows, vinyl siding, hurricane shutters, patio covers, and much more. Everyone here at Acadian is committed to excellence and pride ourselves on being Louisiana's premier service company. Our windows have the best energy ratings in the country and are backed by a lifetime transferable warranty.
"Oh my goodness I love everything they did for me. I needed replacement windows after house leveling. I knew the installation would be a challenge but these are top notch professionals! Every detail was addressed and the installation was flawless. I never knew how much more superior Acadian’s product would be. The tint for the low-e is so amazing as it is next to an older window from LAS which doesn’t even compare to Acadian. I have used that other big company LAS with the ads in the past and their services were not good. Acadian kept me informed and everyone I worked with knew their craft. From the salesman to the installers Rildo and Rodrigo and their supervisor Ross were awesome! They even made sure my older windows were properly sealed. Who does that? Well they did! They’re reasonable cost, are not the most expensive but not cheap. Quality is amazing! I am convinced this was money well spent! I can’t wait to do additional projects with them."

Wood stairs and railings installations and replacements FAQs
A standard outdoor handrail installation takes an average of eight hours for a professional to complete a five to 10-foot section. This includes time for proper measurement, securing mounting hardware, and ensuring the railing is level and stable.
More complex installations involving multiple sections or challenging mounting surfaces may require additional time. Weather conditions can also affect the timeline, particularly for installations requiring concrete work or certain adhesives that need specific temperatures to cure properly.
Aluminum offers the best combination of weather resistance and value for outdoor handrails. Unlike wood, it won't rot, warp, or require regular sealing, and unlike steel or iron, it naturally resists rust without special coatings. Vinyl and composite materials also perform well in various weather conditions, but may not provide the same structural strength as metal options.
For coastal areas with salt exposure or regions with extreme temperature fluctuations, powder-coated aluminum provides excellent durability with minimal maintenance requirements.
Most localities require building permits for outdoor handrail installations, especially for front entrances or elevated decks. Permit costs range from $20 to $30, though requirements vary significantly by location. Building codes specify requirements for handrail height (36 to 42 inches), spacing between balusters (less than four inches), and load-bearing capacity.
Checking with your local building department before beginning installation helps ensure your project will meet all safety requirements and avoid potential fines or required modifications later.
Building codes often require handrails for any elevated surface that rises more than 30 inches above ground level. Additionally, many local regulations mandate railings for staircases with multiple steps, particularly in areas accessible to the public.
Even if your steps don't meet the minimum height requirement for mandatory railings, adding handrails significantly improves safety for all users, especially during inclement weather or at night. A local building inspector or contractor can evaluate your specific situation and advise on both code requirements and safety recommendations.
