"I was very impressed with David's responsiveness and every member of his crew was a pleasure. They completely removed the kitchen floor (and several layers of subfloor) in my 100+ year-old home, made repairs to floor joists and installed new flooring that looks beautiful. It was an evolving project and I appreciated the team's flexibility and speed with which they completed the project."

"I absolutely love the professional job Arnold’s Masonry performed at my house. Arnold is a complete professional when it comes to his work. The items I want to highlight are: · Arnold was very through and detailed in his proposal. There were NO surprises. Everything we asked for he spelled out in detail. · His estimate was by far the most economical and detailed. He detailed out all costs in the proposal. There were no hidden or missed costs. Everything was detailed out. · One thing I love is that he was a one stop guy. He managed and owned all aspects of the project. · The steps and walkway he rebuilt far exceeded our expectations. He really created a focal point to the front of my house. · His team not only performed a spectacular job in replacing the existing railings but added a walkway railing for the step there. · Also he refabricated a retaining wall next to the steps and his recommendation on the type of wall far exceeded what we had asked for. · His creation of a Belgian block edging with mulch on one side of the house and on the other side A Belgian block edging with stone fill really added a refreshing look to the outside of my house. · His team also replaced siding pieces for me that had been damaged over the years. Arnold was there for the ENTIRE time the work had to be performed. He met with me each day and kept me in the loop of his progress. Arnold kept his word on how long the project would take and when he said he would be there he was PROMPT and kept to the schedule. My wife and I are so pleased with not only with the work that was performed but with the professional and courteous manner both he and his crew treated both me and my wife. I highly recommend Arnold Masonry and Construction. I could not find a better professional to work with."

"I had an excellent experience working with Jose and his team on a number of home improvement / repair projects: sink / vanity installation, toilet installation, faucet installation. He was responsive and respectful throughout the whole process and helped provide me with a number of different options to address various issues that came up along the way. His team was professional on the job and and did excellent work on the project. I’d highly recommend his company for home improvement solutions"

"This is the kind of guy you want on your job. Name a quality as a tradesman, he has it - responsive, punctual, skilled, hard working, reliable. But perhaps his best quality is as a person: he's honest and fair. When Troy schedules something, tells you what has to happen, gives you choices, you can be sure he is giving it to you square. I've used Troy numerous times and he has always created solutions and improved the project. I've called him on a Sunday after botching some electrical work and he came right over, and for a very reasonable price. He can do anything. He is also very tech savvy and can make your head spin with his digital estimates with photos of the work. I highly endorse Troy Rosebrock. Great guy.

"I cannot speak highly enough of Tom and Brad Green of Colonial Restorations. We have lived in our antique house for 16 years now, and like most old homes, some of its previous repairs were good, some not so good. Tom Green worked on this house for its previous owners, and his work was, by far, the best in the house. So, we continued to use Colonial - Tom, then Tom and Brad - as we learned the ropes about caring for an old house - our first house, old or new. Over the years, they have replaced sills and posts and beams, and rebuilt parts of our loose stone foundation. Most recently, they replaced the last original posts in our basement, (one of which was a tree trunk still with bark on it), including pouring new custom footings, in advance of our finally cementing the dirt floor. The work here is never easy - nothing is level, nothing is square - but the Greens' end result has always been beautiful - strong and made to last. Their prices are fair and without hidden costs....maybe not the lowest bid you might get, but you know it's a real bid that they will stand behind. They triage projects for us, giving us an idea of what other items will likely need attention in the next few years. We're not done with this house yet....we've never won the lottery, and there's always another repair..... and plan to use them again soon. I feel confident knowing that the next owners of this house, whoever they might be, will see the quality of the work and know that we cared enough to have the right people help us with the ongoing repair and maintenance of a 275+ year old house. I am a real person, a real customer, with no ties to the company, and was more than happy to write this review."

Historical home required rotten wood replacement ? numerous locations around the house require replacement or repair of external wood siding, trim work - excellent workmanship very happy with work performed.

External Paint  sanding (prep) ? wet sanding of the home went quickly and very clean  - superb workmanship very happy with work

External Paint tape (prep)- this is where the project was very slow and time seem to take forever to complete ? 2 weeks of taping .

External Paint ? primer coat - excellent workmanship very happy 1 day

External Paint ? base color 2 coats - excellent workmanship took too long to complete-  8 days

 External Paint ? trim color - excellent workmanship took too long to complete- 5 days

If you are not looking to get house done quickly 1-2 weeks then these are the guys for you excellent work but slow

"Dirk, the owner/operator of Jamieson LLC, arrived at the specified time.  He took down the entire wall, stacked it neatly, replaced the eroded base material, and  rebuilt the wall.  He corrected the problem and built the wall better than it was prior to his efforts.  When he was done, the area where he had collected material (both old and new) was left cleaner than it was before he started.  He was determined to finish the job in one day and worked past 8PM to do so.  If there were any questions, he would stop work and wait until a final decision (mine) was made before continuing.  
Based on the work and effort expended, I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone.

FAQs for wood stairs and railings installation and replacement projects in Wolcott, CT

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.
