1. Reliability and Trustworthiness: Customers value a handyman they can rely on to show up on time and complete the job as promised. If your business has a reputation for being dependable and honest, that’s a huge plus. 2. Quality Workmanship: Your business likely takes pride in providing high-quality work, ensuring that every task—no matter how big or small—is completed to a high standard. This attention to detail helps build long-term customer relationships. 3. Wide Range of Services: People appreciate a one-stop solution for various home repairs and maintenance needs. If your business offers a diverse set of skills (e.g., plumbing fixes, electrical work, carpentry, etc.), that convenience is appealing. 4. Fair Pricing: Transparent and fair pricing can attract customers who want quality service without worrying about hidden fees or inflated costs. 5. Personalized Customer Service: Customers want to feel valued and heard. If your business offers friendly, personalized service and takes the time to listen to customer concerns, that’s a significant reason people would choose you. 6. Quick Response and Availability: Many home repairs can’t wait. If you offer flexible scheduling or emergency services, people are more likely to call on you when they need help. 7. Positive Reviews and Word of Mouth: If your business has a strong track record of satisfied customers who recommend you to their friends and family, that social proof is invaluable.

"Very well."

"Major Homes exceeded our expectations. Paul, in particular, stood out for his meticulous attention to detail and flexibility. He graciously scheduled our first meeting at a time that suited our convenience, where he went above and beyond to discuss industry standards and align them seamlessly with Major Homes' own high standards. His dedication to ensuring that every aspect of the project met our requirements was truly commendable. Anthony was exceptional in outlining the details and expectations for the execution of the contract. He provided clarity and assurance, laying the groundwork for a successful collaboration. What truly impressed me, however, was the performance of his crew. Their professionalism and dedication to delivering outstanding results were evident in every step of the project.

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.
