"The frame around our leaded glass window was rotting.   Rather than install a new window, Superior was able to save the existing leaded glass window and just install a new storm/screen.  They rebuilt the rotting frame.  Looks beautiful.  Much cheaper than a window replacement and kept the integrity of the house intact.  Nice people. Good work. Good prices.

"I was cleaning out my gutters when I noticed that some were bent which was leading to leaves and anything else getting stuck in them. Also along the back of my house there was a hole causing water to leak out. I made the call on Friday to Watry Homes and as of yesterday they are fixed. It took maybe two hours or so to get the hole covered and to bend the gutter back into shape. I also got a quote for my siding while they were they so that when I am ready I can get both things replaced. I can not say enough about Scott who came out and did a great job of letting me know what was needed and  what I would be looking at in terms of fixing now vs replacing. A lot of times a company will try to just say you need everything new when that may not be the case. Which makes me feel good to now yet again I made a great choice."

"Chris was the main contact / owner of Mudslingers and was very responsive from start to finish. He was easily reachable by text which I really appreciated. I asked for an estimate and though Mudslingers was not the lowest quote or the highest quote, I decided to go with them based on the reviews and also Chris seemed to know what he was talking about. We had knotty pine wood paneling on the ceiling and walls in our living room that is approximately 13' x 21'. We had removed the wood paneling which left about 300+ holes to fill and repair in the walls. We also removed the ceiling and installed electrical work so new drywall was required. Mudslingers repaired the walls, installed the drywall, and painted / refinished everything to look like new. They sealed the room entirely so dust would not go in and out, with a high quality plastic sheet and a zipper to go in and out - I really appreciated this. There were two workers that actually performed the entire remodel - Brandon and Jeff. Yes, they may seem like they are really young (mid-20s?), but they put in a lot of effort and we were very pleased with the end quality. They definitely made sure we were happy in the end and came back one evening even after another job started to ensure all the little things were taken care of to wrap-up the project. We trusted them enough to leave a key while we were not home so they could go in and out. Overall, we are very happy with the work and LOVE the new living room. You cannot even tell that there were so many holes, they did such a good job smoothing the walls. The drywall and paint job looks excellent as well. We would recommend their services to others, thanks again Mudslingers!"

"We wanted a complete kitchen remodel along with creating an open concept family /kitchen/dining room. After meeting with a few local contractors we chose Roger and Kitchen Krafters. This was a very large project which encompassed our entire main floor. He took the time needed to meet with us over the course of several months to plan our project. He also spent time educating us on the best ways to maximize our dollars spent for the maximum impact towards our vision and to stay close to our budget. He would give great options where monies may be better spent or where he thought we wouldn't want to pass up or cut corners on certain areas, revisiting this with us along the continuum of the project. Ultimately he came up with the perfect layout to accommodate the open space we wanted along with a large island, plenty of cabinets, and functional space. He did all of this in a relatively small space, but made it feel large yet cozy. Roger created more space for us in our dining room by bumping out a wall. He also removed an existing wall and part of another wall to open up our space. This in turn created rerouting some electrical and venting, which all worked out very well. We bought our own flooring, (bamboo which we love) and his crew installed it doing a marvelous job. In the end Roger talked us into doing the bamboo on the entire main floor, and we couldn't be happier with it! Needless to say with all of this renovation we were limited to our upstairs and basement. When we were home while his crews were working they were respectful and efficient. We are now able to entertain at our large island, enjoy the family room space, and work in our kitchen without being on top of one another. His work is immaculate! He installs all the cabinets himself, and they are gorgeous and functional. The cabinets truly are the crown jewel of the project! Roger also installed a fantastic hood vent for us. His tile worker beautifully installed our subway tile, and we couldn't imagine our kitchen without it- a true WOW factor. It is our back splash and climbs the wall behind our hood. Getting the floor boards ordered and installed was a headache which we hadn't anticipated, but that also turned out wonderfully despite the extra work and price tag. There were a few bumps along the way as there are with any project, but the end result is truly magnificent! Lighting was a another huge project. We had our dining room chandelier moved, had under mount cabinet lighting installed, new dimmers, recessed lighting throughout the kitchen, hallway, and some in family room, and pendants added over the island. Just deciding which lights to use is exciting and fun, and they are all amazing! Lighting changed the look of the entire space. We would gladly and enthusiastically hire Roger again and we highly recommend Roger and his crews for your next job."

"Things started very slowly for us, because of constant rain in the beginning and then one or two of the guys were out sick or injured (not work related). But, once things got under way, everything went really well. First of all, our house is three stories tall and the garage is not attached, also the homes in this neighborhood are quite close to each other, so there wasn't a lot of space on the sides of the house for working. The stucco work made it so that you couldn't even see where the patching and repairs were. And, the painting is just beautiful. We needed some gutters replaced and they even cleaned out gutters which were not part of the job or contract. While the work was being done, there was stuff all over the yard, but at the end of each day it was all cleaned up and piled nicely. Bruce and his guys were very courteous and friendly. Whenever we brought up anything that we felt needed doing, they always took care of it. They never gave us some reason why it couldn't be done. As the work went along we discovered that a ceiling had fallen down in a sleeping porch that we just used for storage. It turned out that water was coming in from poor roofing that had been done years before. After first trying to calk it and finding out that didn't work, we had Bruce repair that section of the roof. So that was a completely separate job and the room is now dry and being brought back into working order. We were so happy with the exterior painting that we have now gone ahead to have some interior rooms redone (the walls torn out and replaced and painted.) The one bedroom that has been done is so beautiful that everyone now wants that to be their room. We went beyond what we had planned to do, so we are having to come to an end here, but we will definitely be getting Bruce back to do further work in the future."

"In a time when its hard to find quality, reliable help, my expectations for a good tradesman were not very high. I wanted to add a downstairs bathroom for my home and randomly selected a company. To my surprise, Dan Church and Construct Boss surpassed my expectations. They were very knowledgeable and helped me save in areas I would have overspent. His team was thorough and efficient while paying attention to the small details. It's nice to find a handyman you can depend on. Thanks Construct Boss!"

"Words cannot describe the amazing job Curt and his team did on my condo.  I recently moved into a beautiful two-level loft with the layout of my dreams.  The only problem was that I despised the paint colors on every single wall in the place.  The project would require extremely technical painting as the walls were not in good shape.  There were holes and uneven patches hidden throughout; areas that were extremely high with lots of curves, ledges and angles.  The place also had closets with built-in shelves and drawers that needed to be removed prior to painting. Curt was fantastic throughout the entire project.  He kept in touch with me prior to the project to discuss colors and ideas.  There were some glitches along the way, one being that the owner needed to stay in the place an extra week, which would require us to postpone the project a full week.  Curt was extremely accommodating and adjusted his projects to make the timing work.  I’m a very picky and fickle person, and own up to the fact that I was probably one of Curt’s more high-maintenance clients, especially when it came to choosing my paint colors. He is an expert in color, and knows what will look good in a north vs. south facing room/rooms with little or no light and natural light. Curt was extremely patient with me, allowing me to take my time in selecting the colors.  He offered opinions that kept my personal tastes in mind.  On multiple occasions he told me that he would not feel like he was done with the job  unless we ended up with a place that I loved.  And love it I do.  Per his suggestion, we decided to do two-tone faux painting on the concrete beams throughout the place which are absolutely beautiful.  My father is in the hardware business and has a good eye for what constitutes quality work. When he saw what Curt and his team had done with the place he said it was some of the best painting he had ever seen.  I sometimes find myself just staring at the walls in awe of how beautiful they are. I have found a painter for life, and when I purchase my next home, I will make sure it’s a place where I hate every paint color so that I can go through the process of painting all over again.  He made a stressful project an extremely pleasant experience for me and I will be forever grateful."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Richfield, WI

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.
