"Outstanding craftsmanship, great value and impeccable timing. We had soft spots in our subfloor repaired and vinyl plank/ trim, baseboards installed. It's extremely hard to find a company that cares about your home as if it were theirs. They fit into our tight schedule and 3-1/2 days later ,accomplished what others quoted as 3-4 weeks out. If you want it done right the first time, reach out to this company for best quality in Charleston."

"All the positive reviews are absolutely spot on. You couldn't ask for nicer people. They showed up early, knew exactly what they were doing, and charged a very reasonable price. The job was called "handymen," but I think that's underselling it a bit. They opened up my ceiling, installed a new beam, replaced the drywall, spackled it, painted it, and mounted a heavybag. I wanted this thing to be done right, and was it ever. They cleaned up and finished ahead of schedule. You need something done well? Call them!"

"It went great! Jerry diagnosed the problem right away. When the roof was reshingled 10 years ago, there was a portion of the roof where the roofers used too much pressure with the nail gun. This portion started to leak. Jerry recommended we just replace this one portion and his roofers could blend it all together. They came and did the work and now it's fixed! In fact, they showed me the rusty nails they pulled from this portion of the roof. The original company I used is no longer in business. I am so glad that Jerry could repair this without me having to replace the whole roof!"

Les is an artist.  He helped us visualize what we wanted and was able to make it happen. 

He is a perfectionist.  He will do all aspects of the job correctly. He will not rush a job, or cut any corners...ever.  If you want it done right, call him.  

We gave him unrestricted access to our house.  He is trustworthy and a very hard worker. 

We are thoroughly happy we found him.

We will not use anyone else.

"This was a great experience. Davidson verified the job twice before installing the door. The door was installed through a structural wall and Davidson took all the necessary steps and precautions to ensure everything was perfect. We couldnâ t be happier with the quality of the project and now have access to an awesome storage area!! Highly recommended."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Ravenel, SC

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.
