How wide can deck stairs be with two stringers?

• <div><p>Deck stairs should have at least three stringers rather than two. The recommended minimum width for stairs is 36 inches, and the <a href="https://www.nachi.org/inspecting-stair-stringers.htm">International Association of Certified Home Inspectors</a> recommends at least three cut stringers to provide sufficient support on wood decking stairs of this width. Generally, stringers should be a maximum of 16 inches apart for wood decking and 12 inches apart for more flexible composite decking.</p></div>

Can I install a railing on concrete stairs?

• <div><p>You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-install-railing-on-concrete-steps.htm">install stair railings on concrete steps</a>, but the process requires special tools and fasteners. You’ll need a hammer drill, masonry bits, and concrete anchors to ensure a secure fit. Start by marketing your bracket locations and drilling pilot holes, then use concrete screws or expansion anchors to attach the mounting hardware.</p></div>

Q: Are concrete stairs cheaper than wood?

• <div><p>No, high labor costs and the project's complexity make concrete stairs more expensive than steel or wood stairs. Wood steps cost between<b> </b>$100 and $200 per step, including labor and materials, while concrete steps are about triple, at between $200 and $600 per step. Building codes may also have stricter requirements for concrete steps, as they&rsquo;re considered permanent, so you might also pay more for permits.</p></div>

Q: How long does professional installation take?

• <div><p>Generally 1-2 weeks, depending on project complexity and material availability.</p></div>

Q: Are stairs safer with carpet?

• <div><p>Yes, carpeted stairs are safer because carpet helps reduce the chances of slips and falls compared to harder materials like wood, vinyl, tile, or steel staircases, which lack the friction needed for a secure tread. And, if you do happen to fall, carpeted stairs also have more cushioning in the case of an accident.</p></div>

Well, A/C is 10 years old, they did an inspection and evaluation. The capacitor was in need of replacement and was probably costing us in higher electric bills. Also they installed a programmable thermostat for us. We were very pleased.

They did a terrible job replacing my linoleum! Then, the installer said he didn't reinstall the toilet which later proved to be untrue. "Satisfaction guaranteed?" Don't you believe it!

Our first mistake was assuming because they did a good job on our roof, they'd do equally as well on our deck. Wrong. It was a nightmare! We had to have them rip up the decking twice because first the "wood" didn't come from the same batch and so didn't match, the second time because of horrible...
