“Transform your home with our expert carpentry finishes. From stunning doors and elegant windows to flawless floors and custom decks, we bring craftsmanship and quality to every project. Trust us to elevate your space with precision and style.”

"We recently had new railings installed on our renewed deck, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the contractor was professional, responsive, and detail-oriented. They showed up on time, worked efficiently, and kept the site clean throughout the process. The craftsmanship is outstanding. Our deck not only feels safer but also looks amazing. The railings completely transformed the space and gave it a fresh, polished look. What really stood out was the contractor’s pride in their work and their willingness to go the extra mile to make sure every detail was perfect. They listened to our ideas, made thoughtful suggestions, and delivered a final product that exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality deck or railing work. If you want a reliable professional who combines skill with great customer service, this is the contractor to call!"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Wells, ME

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.
