"Words cannot describe how well these guys did and everything they worked with us on. We had several small jobs and deck work. They painted our high vaulted walls and ceilings. They fixed our shower plumbing and added an acces panel for the shower. They installed a new ceiling fan. They re-faced our rotted deck and replaced several joists. Replaced both sets of stairs and set them in concrete. Amazing woodworking, professionalism, punctual, truly good people that you can actually trust. All work was done in a very timely fashion. We will definitely hire again for various projects around the house."

"Pat from Steadfast Carpentry didn’t shy away when we asked him to install a hidden bookshelf door in our living room. He advised us throughout the purchase to ensure we were getting the correct product for our space. The door is used daily and is still as sturdy as the day it was installed. Pat went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and we couldn’t be happier with the finished product. Thank you!!"

"We hired an outside individual before hiring MX Remodeling. Back March 2024 this individual was hired by word of mouth. Project began with this individual started breaking down the bathroom but we notice something was wrong when this individual requested for us to pay for materials and disposal of garbage. This individual was unlicensed, wanted payments in advance and will come back every other day or week or month. This project shouldâ ve been 1 week completion turn out to be 5 months nightmare. We put too time and efforts on this individual to completed and payments were given. This individual turn off all communication and we were lost and we didnâ t know what to do next. We borrow the funds for project and stress level were very high for our family. By the grace of god we were recommended too a licensed company MX Remodeling. MX Remodeling came in took over the project within a week it was completed with great satisfaction."

"Great experience from start to finish. The team did a beautiful job installing the crown molding in my kitchen—clean, precise, and exactly what I was hoping for. Professional, on time, and easy to work with. I’d definitely recommend them."

"Working with Flavio has been wonderful! He is a fantastic craftsman and a true professional -- not to mention kind -- and you can feel the care that goes into his work. He and his teammate Denis were a pleasure to work with. From the first time we reached out to him, he was very responsive in answering our (many) questions! We had a number of doors that we wanted to replace (both interior and exterior), as well as a few storm doors to be replaced. He also re-installed our front door after we discovered that the person who had initially installed it did not ensure it was plumb. This was a complex job which he did with great care and efficiency, ensuring that no detail was missed (as an example, he noted that when the door was re-installed, the door sweep was just barely making contact with the door sill, so he replaced it with a taller door sweep to ensure a tight seal). They finished the front door with a beautiful high gloss paint which was done meticulously! Unlike previous searches for contractors (referrals through family or friends), we found Flavio through reviews on Angie's List, and he is by far the most talented and best contractor that we've ever worked with! We're so grateful to have met him, and are looking forward to working with him on a number of projects in the coming months. He absolutely lives up to -- and truly exceeds -- his stellar reputation. Now we can't imagine working with anyone else!"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Tuckahoe, NY

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.
