"Nice and polite young men did the work. They were very professional and got the job done and clean up was good. Did not try to sell me services I did not need like some of the waterproofing companies I contacted."

"Bruno was a nice guy and good to work with. Scheduling was a little complicated but not too difficult. Price and craftsmanship were good. My only complaint is asthetics. Why wasn't the paint on my new risers selected to match the adjacent trim? Both are white but different shades so it looks strange. Also my existing top step was not restained to match as part of the job. I understand that it was not included int he quote but nonetheless does not look good and Bruno didn't anticipate this. He gave me the stain to do it myself but overall the staircase could look fantastic and instead just looks good."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in North Street, MI

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.
