"I purchased all the necessary materials myself. All they had to do was install. I was charged $75 $68 with the 5% off coupon) for less than 1/2 hours worth of work. That translates to $150 an hour ($142.5o with a 5% discount). I like PPHI, but that price for a simple install (which I could have done myself or had my neighbor do for free), I feel is very overpriced."

"Mr Anderson Serverino was very polite and knowledgeable. I needed a foundation for my shed, he built the shed, he installed my storm door and he made my white brick fence look very nice! He was able to do things I did not know I needed and I was very pleased with him! Any future projects I look forward to using him again."

"Prompt communication, accurate estimate and schedule, job well done! This was a smooth process with great communication and attention to detail the whole way through. Kevin came out quickly with his drywall pro to give an estimate, provided a detailed estimate, and was able to adjust the schedule to add in some electrical work that we wanted. They started the job on time and completed it in the window we scheduled. There was a very minor detail that needed looking into after the job was complete and they handled it perfectly the next day. The quality of the work was great -- they tore down and replaced a ceiling. We've worked with other contractors and handyman services for small and big jobs and this company is one we'd definitely work with again (which we can't say about others)."

"SB Home Improvements did an excellent job replacing the old wood molding around my garage door with new vinyl molding and siding. They also painted another door and door trim. I am extremely satisfied with the work. They are honest, efficient, very knowledgeable, friendly, and courteous. The price for the work was very reasonable. I would highly recommend SB Home Improvement."

"I sent in a project to install up to 200 feet of Permanent Christmas lights on my homes 2nd story eves, Chrome Construction contacted me on 31 October 2024 on 31 October 2024 he came out and we agreed on a price, on 1 November 2024 we signed a contract and gave him a $100 deposit, he was to start on 4 November 2024, but never showed finally messaged me that he forgot he have a court date, he stated that he would give me a definite date and time to start my project from then, never received that, he did state that he could do my project on 5 November 2024 because his wife had an interview, I stated ok please give me a date and time, never received anything until late 5 November 2024 asking if I had a ladder or if he should bring his I told he should bring his own, he then said he had a job to do on 6 November 2024 between 9 - 10 am and then would call me after that to get started on mine, he never called me, i tried to contact him several times with no answer, then finally on the evening of 6 November 2024 he states I'm sorry I'll call you shortly, A lot going on today, never received a call, so then on 7 November 2024 I sent him a message stating that i think at this point to consider this contract Null and Void and that since he had no expense incurred on my project, that I wanted my deposit of $100 returned. Never received any communication from him today 7 November 2024. Just want my deposit in the amount of $100 returned, I think at this point best to look for someone else to do my project, It is too bad because he seemed to be very Professional at the start. Thanks James Powell"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Scranton, PA

A pro can set an attic ladder in two to four hours, including framing adjustments and finish work. Complex installs—like cutting a brand-new opening or trimming joists—land toward the high end of that window. Tackle the job yourself and plan on a full day, plus an extra pair of hands, since one mis-measurement can slow everything down.

Local building codes drive this decision. If your ceiling has a fire-rating requirement, the ladder must match it to maintain that protective barrier. A rated unit slows flame spread between the attic and living space, buying valuable evacuation time and limiting damage. 

Because codes vary by city and even by neighborhood, check with the permitting office or ask your contractor before you order the ladder.

Aluminum ladders are light, rust-proof, and easy to maneuver, making them a practical choice for most households. Wood models handle higher weight loads and can match traditional trim if aesthetics top your list, but they’re heavier and need occasional upkeep. 

Compare the ladder’s duty rating, your ceiling height, and how often you’ll use it. The best option is the one that balances safety, convenience, and the look you want without stretching the budget.
