"Glen and his team arrived promptly at the agreed-upon time. With in 20 minutes the rooms were prepped and ready to be primed. All furniture and flooring was covered with drop cloths and tarps, the work promptly began. As the crew was about to complete the task we did a visual inspection and I being a perfectionist pointed out some areas of concern, the team quickly and easily fixed the issue and did their own inspection again. The attention to detail coast to coast offers is amazing, Glenn and his workers even trimmed in some sections of the walls that we had not completed prior to their arrival. When we told Glen not to worry about finishing our project he insisted, on the premise that it would take away from the work him and his crew were going to do and then they did not agree with leaving half finished projects. That type of customer service is well worth The fair price that was agreed upon. Glen and his crew will be our first call for any pressure washing or painting needs in the future."

"I've used John in the past and have never had a bad experience. This time he patched up some dry wall that came off when I took down some M3 tape. He sanded the wall down, covered the holes, and repainted the spots. Looks like there was never an issue. As always, great price and friendly, professional customer service!

"MLS was very personable and professional. Project was to build an exterior wooden deck. During construction, we made several changes to the design which MLS graciously modified for. They were very concerned throughout the project that we were satisfied and maintained open communication all the way. Very pleased with result and enjoyed interaction with the contractors."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Swansboro, NC

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.
