"We had a quote of about $11,000 and we were told that if we paint it ourselves, she would reduce the price by $800 which is what happened. We painted it ourselves. They had an expensive work. Everything had to be done. They had to gut a cabinet which was installed in the wall. We had to completely put a new wall. They had to take out the old vanity, old mirror, old toilet, and they had to redo the floor. They did the floor, the walls, and they put a cabinet. The area with the vanity fit was so odd that they did a custom design and it was beautiful and magnificent. It was the color of mahogany, some wood with a granite top and they had paid attention to all of our details, all that we really wanted on our wish list. They did everything we asked for and they did it in a timely manner. It's a family-owned and operated business so we had a husband, a father and a son all working all of the heavy stuff. Karen would ordinarily does the painting but I did it. What they did was the wall was a real problem because there was a sticky wallpaper on it which had to be fold and sprayed and it was a total nightmare. What the husband did was he put some stuff on the walls and they get nice and smooth, to get rid of all the bumps and scratches and dents. That was much easier than putting drywall in. He did a prep job for me so it was easy to paint and he didn't charge me for that. We got new lights, new fan, and we had to have a new bifold door put on because the door took up the whole room. If you open the door, if you're sitting on the toilet it would bump your knees so it was a silly design. They came up with a very creative idea of using a bifold door and they installed us for us. They did a magnificent, professional job. It was wonderful doing business with them. They did with a great sense of humor and paid very careful attention to what we really wanted. I love doing business with them. When we're going to have our other bathroom done next year, I'll definitely going to call them. I would highly recommend them."

"Excellent! I could not have asked for a better crew. JT, Shaun, Pedro and Kayla were my direct contacts and all were very professional. Western Pacific Roofing came to the rescue just before this last big rain. They were not prepared to repair my roof upon first observation, however, they were able to secure the exposed area so as not to allow further damage from the impending rain storms. We survived the rain, they returned the next business day after the rains. Roof is repaired and I’m completely satisfied with my overall experience. Western Pacific Roofing has become my go to company for all of my properties’ roofing needs..."

"Joshua is great! I purchased the toilets at Home Depot and arranged for Joshua to pick them up. Well HD Lancaster location only had two of the HE toilets that I wanted, so the 3rd toilet was picked up in the HD Palmdale store. Joshua did all this with pleasure. He was on time, work was completed superbly and cleanup was on point. I will always call on Joshua for my Handyman needs..."

"Amboy Korling and his assistant were extremely polite and professional.  They did nice work, particularly on the door frame, where looks are critical.  They arrived at 8 am, with materials, and set up their table saw on the patio. They plugged it in and began work.  They were finished at about 4 pm, on a job that could easily have taken 2 days.   <br /> They replaced the rotted header for the door with a nice piece of 4x4 lumber.  They replaced the casing for the door, making sure that the original door would still fit.  It looks great and all we need is to have it painted. <br /> They cut and installed extensions for about 40 rafters under the eaves.  The original rafters were rounded at the end so that they would not take a gutter.  The extensions will allow us to get well-placed gutters.  Our present gutters were installed with a crude system that led to the dry rot problem. <br /> The original plan had been for them to add a downspout in the middle of the gutter on one side of the house, but after looking at the relatively simple installation of the gutters they left that out, and cut $200 from the price.  However, they tilted the gutter so that it would drain to the far end: if the original installer had done this, the dry rot wouldn't have happened to begin with. <br /> We're now on our way to having the woodwork of the entire house painted, and new gutters installed, but those are tasks for other contractors.   <br /> This was a great repair to something that I had despaired of getting fixed.  <br /> <br />"

"Angel was responsive to my inquiry by email. Came out for an estimate to install stock cabinets, counter top and sink as well as all the plumbing. The day he was scheduled to come to install he called me to explain he had made a mistake on his estimate and wanted to talk with me first because he said he would not just come to do the work then tell me, this was for $20.00! that impressed me a lot. He was so careful of my home protecting the area he worked in he did a quality job! He was efficient an organized."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Orcutt, CA

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.
