"Do yourself a favor and just go with Anderson. You’ll pay more but you’ll save yourself the stress of dealing with Ecoview. Everything from the bay window roof leaking to the window installed too tightly and cracking, to the siding around the window has been a mess. Their lifetime warranty doesn’t mean much when getting them to fix something is an impossible hassle. I’ve literally had my backyard remodeled in the time it’s taken them replace a window. Waiting on a replacement window panel now for over 5 months. They outsource and hire shoddy contractors that half-a** the job. I could not recommend them any less. Probably one of my biggest regrets as a new homeowner was signing that contract. Once they have your money, good luck using that warranty. Going on 6 months waiting on “parts for my windows”."

Wood stairs and railings installations and replacements FAQs
On average, replacing a deck railing costs about $925. This includes all the materials and labor needed to install a new porch or deck railing system with a durable finish. For instance, adding a new handrail on your front steps costs around $80 per linear foot. This price ensures your new railing is safe, looks great, and meets building codes.
Balusters and spindles offer structural support to the railing and run from the footing to the handrail. While their names are often used interchangeably, these support posts differ in their footing design. Balusters rest on a step, floor, or deck, while spindles have a footing rail attached to the bottom of the posts.
Choosing the right contractor for stair railing replacement is determined by the project’s complexity. A general contractor provides professional expertise and precision for a design that involves custom curves or intricate details. For straightforward installations, a qualified handyman delivers efficient service. Hiring skilled professionals guarantees that the installation meets all safety and building code requirements while ensuring lasting quality.
If it's still structurally sound, you can update your existing stair railing without removing it. By repairing any damages and then painting or refinishing it, you can give your staircase a fresh new look. This approach saves time and money while ensuring your railing meets all safety and building code requirements.
Reusing your existing stair spindles is a practical option when they’re in good condition. Notifying your contractor in advance is essential to ensure the spindles are preserved during removal. After removal, refinishing the spindles with a fresh coat of paint or stain will match them with your new railing design while maintaining sustainability and a cohesive aesthetic.
Stair railing balusters are mandated to maintain a spacing of no more than four inches apart. This precise measurement prevents a four-inch sphere from passing through and ensures the railing system is secure. Maintaining this gap is essential for structural integrity and safety. Be sure to verify that your installation meets these requirements as specified by local building codes.
