"William did an amazing job replacing my carpeted stairs, railing and spindles. Him and his helper were incredibly professional. Kept the job site clean and kept me up to date on schedule daily. He was punctual and his price was competitive. Would highly recommend Southeastern Stair Company."

"Mag Selva Gutter & Roofing did a great job of repairing the hardie planks and trim surround our chimney. We asked all of the companies for their recommendation of "how to" improve and prevent future damages. Mag Selva Gutter & Roofing was the only one of the five (5) companies that suggested additional proactive steps to help prevent future damage from occurring without major repairs/cost. Mag Selva's estimate of the repair cost was fair and comparable/less than a couple of the other estimates. Mag Selva answered all of our questions and provided us with photos of the work in the different phases of the job as we requested since we were unable to see some of the area due to the height and/or angle of the work area. Another impressive item was how the paint matched to the existing house color. Unless we point out the area of the repair, no one would know that work had been done. Thank you Manuel and Juan at Mag Selva Gutter & Roofing for your great work."

"Allen designed and made a custom barn door for our laundry room which was made of sapele wood and finished with only linseed oil. We supplied the hanging hardware and Allen was able to hang the door and also adjust the molding around the original door (removing hinges, etc.). His work is creative and precise. He takes great pride in his work and won't stop until you are satisfied. He also made a custom newel post and altered the entire railing assembly for our stairs. He does beautiful work. Happy to provide pictures, but I don't see where I can attach them. I lean on Allen all the time for custom work and he never lets us down. Be aware he is in high demand, so you may have to wait to get your help. He also makes custom furniture, which I've seen in person and his craftsmanship is second the none!"

"I needed someone to do some work on my small trailer and Brad was the man. He cut and removed the old metal mesh and installed wooden boards. Very happy with the end result and he got the job done in a few hours. "

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Sandy Springs, GA

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.
