"It was a custom job, a big shower, but the sales guys reassured me that I would get a finished product and all I would have to do was paint the ceiling. He said it would be about 3 days, but the job took 7 days and ran into my son's 7th birthday party. The first mistake we noticed was that the walls were not level and the grout lines were off. We called the installer and they rushed back and pulled the wall down. The seal between the two walls never fit quite the same after that. Then we noticed on the back wall behind the bench that it was bolted to the green board and not wooden framework, and the greenboard had already begun cracking from sitting on it a few times just to test it. So they came back and hammered a 2x6 in there and acted like it was no big deal. The concrete poured under the base of the tub didn't meet the outside edge or the corners and instead shims were left in place that came loose, causing the tub to dip and the caulk to crack. So I hammered in my own shim and poured the concrete myself, repairing the caulk afterward. Water is still pooling in the far right corner of the pan but there's nothing I can do about that. The hole cut in the ceiling for the can light was off center so I had to widen it to get the light in there. Because of this, it was too wide to make a proper seal and I had to caulk around the outside edge of the light. Neither of the shower heads had a washer in them and both were leaking. The hot and cold are backwards. The ceiling was not caulked, nor the trim along the windows, not the trim around the outside edge of the shower where it meets the drywall. This was done after I spent a couple days building the drywall up on both sides, four layers of mudd and sanding to properly level and prepare it. In all I probably spent five or six days on the shower installation that I was told would be done in three days, and all I would have to do was paint the ceiling. Instead I'm pouring concrete, caulking, mudding, painting and texturing, cutting baseboards and I'm slow at it because I'm a nurse and not a carpenter. That's why I wanted to hire professionals. And I told them they owed me some money back, a figure that was around 40% and the manager told me he would call me on Monday and that was over two Mondays ago. The project took a long time to get started, it took a long time to get finished, it was not done right, it was not done professionally, and it was not the finished product I was promised."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Scottville, IL

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.
