"Pete and Mike did an incredible job!!! We were looking for some repairs for our deck but also had a 20 year old split rail fence that was in bad condition. Pete said he could do both repairs and gave us a VERY reasonable estimate for the job. He basically had to take down the entire split rail fence and start over, because it was in such bad shape. We are absolutely blown away by how amazing the fence looks now!!! In the process of rebuilding the fence they had to remove part of a dead tree, and they cut it up for firewood in the process. He also put up wire around the inside of the split rail fence to keep our pups inside the yard. It was an incredible task, and they did such an amazing, very professional job!!! The fence looks so much better than the original one and really gives amazing curb appeal to our home!!! The deck repairs are also awesome!!! They removed the old lattice around the bottom, and replaced it with solid wood and two access doors. We had problems with the pups trying to get under the deck, and this was an excellent solution rather than just replacing the broken lattice. We would VERY HIGHLY recommend Pete and Mike to do ANY task that you have. They are both so personable, friendly, professional, very reliable and dependable!!! You can't go wrong hiring them to do any job, and you know it will be done exceptionally well and top quality!!! Any future carpentry jobs we have in the future, we will most definitely hire them again!!!"

"From the start Mike was very professional and pleasant when he came to give us an estimate for painting the outside soffit around the whole house outside, porch railings, pickets and stairs. When we decided to have him do the job, as his price was reasonable for the work wanted, we called and he stated he would send a contract and have the work done by 10-30-14, which was 2 weeks away and would take 1 1/2 days to complete. He called on 10-21-14 and stated he would be at the house on 10-23-14. All the work was done and it looks terrific. There was no mess to clean up, they did it all.  We are very happy with his work and would highly recommend him and have him do any future painting needed at our home.

"The job was done in a very professional manner paying attention to detail and quality of the supplies provided and used for the fencing. The job was done efficiently and exactly to the specifications that I required. He made sure that I was satisfied with the job at different stages of the construction. I had one or two specific things that I wanted done and he made sure that they were installed properly as they were being done. He worked very neatly and cleaned up all of the property of any cut or waste materials. His men were very proficient at performing their individual tasks paying attention once more to quality and to my satisfaction.

"In September of this year my wife and I bought a home near Cedar Mountain. We had
a few things that we wanted to get done to the house before we moved in. From
Florida we researched contractors as well as through friends in our new
community. I was not prepared for the casual attitude of many of the workmen I
spoke with. Out of all of them, there was only one who showed up and did the
work as promised, Mr. Wade Morris. Despite having to drive and extraordinarily
long way to our home, Wade arrived every morning at 8:30 until the job was
done. I had to return to Florida but I left Wade a key to finish up. When I got
back to NC I was pleased to find the house clean and the work done to a high
standard of professionalism. Little extras, like painting the bedroom
baseboards (which was not part of our agreement) made me appreciate Wade and
Gaye all the more.

"Clay and Mike are awesome!! They did a wonderful job and I would recommend using them!! Very reasonable price and they made sure the work was done right!! They actually did extra things, such as pressure washed my back patio and painted the trim under my front porch to make their landscaping work pop!! Clay would keep me informed on everything they did and would let me know when they were on their way. Even with all the issues we had with Lowe's, they never let it stop them from getting the work done!! I will continue telling people about their service and will use again!! Thanks again!!"

"I received several estimates before choosing All in one painting and flooring. I have to say I was extremely impressed by their work. It took them a day longer than what they expected, and I was not charged more. My past experience with painters is that they would not show up. Renee and Dave made me feel that my house was priority. They cleaned as they went. I think they were picker about the job than I was. They did such a great job, I hired them to paint the inside of my house and remodel my bathroom. I wouldn’t use anyone else. Thank you for making my house like beautiful!"

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in West Jefferson, 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.
