"Luis and his team were able to fix my front porch, which was starting to detach from the house. They were able to get to my job very quickly which helped give me even peace of mind. Very friendly and professional, they were able to get the repair done quickly and without any issues. To anyone on this site, I highly recommend them. I even got a few extra cards from Luis so I can give them to any of my friends and family that need work done as well. "

"I hired Pacific Luxury Flooring to install a hearth for a gas fireplace. Abel was our professional installer and he responded almost right away and was able to get to it fairly quickly. He came over and talked with me and my wife about what exactly we were looking for. He also suggested some ideas regarding sizing and material that we incorporated and which enhanced the final result. Job well done and we're very happy with the knowledge and service provided by Abel at Pacific Luxury Flooring. Thank you."

We replaced the old, worn-out carpet in this living room with rich brown waterproof flooring and clean white trim to completely modernize the space. A simple upgrade that made a huge difference.

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Longview, WA

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.
