"Scott is so detailed, talented, professional, and cleans up after himself. His work is an art. Our railings were custom, different than any others we have seen, clean horizontal lines (no welding can be seen), and absolutely BEAUTIFUL. FLAWLESS! It turned out better than we expected. We're remodeling our entire house and we have many contractors enter our home and have envied his craftsmanship and even asked for his name and number. One of the contractor does railings too and he said that this is the most beautiful railings he has ever seen. He even took pictures of it. We truly recommend him. He's very honest and great to work with. We actually have other projects in mind for him. He's a one-man show so he can get booked up pretty fast. But worth the wait if you can."

"This company is spectacular!! Blake and his workers not only did a fantastic job on my deck, but Blake found a way to replace all the decking with pressure treated wood and still come in at a price that I could afford. They are professional, skilled, efficient, kind, courteous, , and charming! I've never been happier with a contractor than I am with Blake!!! They did the job better than I ever could've imagined and they did it very quickly. They were on time and they did everything they could do to make me happy. I am ecstatic!!! I highly recommend this company!! I love these guys!!! They built me a deck that was better than the original and it'll last for a long, long time. I have only positive comments about what they did and how they did it!! I almost hope that something else needs to be done around my house so I can hire them again!! 😁🤣😍 They are a great company and they'll do a great job for you at a reasonable price and in a timely fashion. I'm a very very very happy customer"

"We are senior homeowners who need help with odd maintenance and moving jobs. Jose contacted me immediately when I asked for a quote - some of the other contacts never got in touch. He came to our home that day to see what we needed and assess the need - and then he patiently waited two weeks to do it, rescheduled because we were ill. When we finally did meet, he did an excellent job in a very short time. We are already talking to him about another job. If you need someone with good skills and a great work ethic to help you with essential jobs you can no longer do, call Jose."

"Japheth was professional in setting and keeping appointments. He was very communicative during the process letting me know the next steps and work schedules. He performed quality work and even did some things to ensure the deck has a long life. He protected the materials on site (from rain) and maintained a clean work area. I would use him again on future projects."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Stanwood, WA

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.
