Historical home required rotten wood replacement ? numerous locations around the house require replacement or repair of external wood siding, trim work - excellent workmanship very happy with work performed.

External Paint  sanding (prep) ? wet sanding of the home went quickly and very clean  - superb workmanship very happy with work

External Paint tape (prep)- this is where the project was very slow and time seem to take forever to complete ? 2 weeks of taping .

External Paint ? primer coat - excellent workmanship very happy 1 day

External Paint ? base color 2 coats - excellent workmanship took too long to complete-  8 days

 External Paint ? trim color - excellent workmanship took too long to complete- 5 days

"I met Wes on Angies list last year, so I'm a happy repeat customer, and I will call him again. This time I had some challenging upper kitchen cabenets that I started to do myself, and set up the first corner cabinet and said self, you'd better call Wes, (my 1920 house predates thstraight lines). They came out beautiful! Call Amy and Wes, you'll be happier than you expected to be.

"Yes the work was done. The two guys that came put in 7 windows and two big bay windows in one day. They did not even taken a break. They cleaned up the small pieces of scrap. Then one week later they came back and put in two new doors with the same professionalism when they did my doors."

"I am still amazed when I walk out on the new deck it beautiful and solid as a rock!  After a 4 year disaster with a previous deck experience, I finally decided to try again and had numerous estimates in the last year.  When Brian came out looked at the existing deck and told me what needed to be done and how he would do it.  I knew he was knowledgeable and he knew what he was doing. 
During the project he ran in to some unforeseen and unusually construction idiocracies with the house during the project he adapted and adjusted without a hitch.  The new deck is wonderful and you could drive a truck on it.  My husband is over 250lbs and it doesn't move when he walks or plops down in a chair. 
Brian was here when he said he would be.  He kept us informed about what was going on, and cleaned up before he left.  The details that went into the deck were beyond what I had expected which is always a delight.  Edges were routed, corners smoothed.  A hand rail was installed on the stairs (which have nice wide treads).  Cement for the footings was mixed onsite rather than the cement being poured in the hole and adding water from a hose.
I was/am thrilled with the whole project and will use B&M for future projects.  Oh, did I tell you I was happy with the deck?"

"It is very convenient, and reasonably priced.  The only thing that they could work on is the punctuality of the pick up times.  The rest of the experience was satisfactory.  My daughter has also used them.  I would highly recommend this service."

"She revamped my sons nursery to exactly what I wanted his "big boy" rustic/woodland theme! Absolutely amazing and couldn't be happier. Half the price I was expecting and the attention to detail was amazing. My son is Autistic and very particular about his room and he loves it! She took the time to understand what was needed for him! This mama and son couldn't be happier with the outcome."

"Matt rebuilt my deck from the subframe up. He is meticulous with his woodworking skills. He finished the job in less than four days and it is far and above what I expected. My new deck is as solid as ever and with a few of Mattâ s subtle touches in the railings and stairway it looks better than ever. I couldnâ t be happier! Mattâ s impeccable work is well worth his price. He left my property neat and clean and made sure I was absolutely satisfied with the entire job before he left. I will not hesitate to call Northeast Custom Built-Ins for my next project."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Jewett City, CT

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.
