"This is very talented professional. I gave him a picture of what kind of railing I would like for my front steps. He produced a beautiful design installed them and they look beautiful. Thank you Vince I’m so glad I called you. I would recommend him highly. He is honest and considerate and very reasonable. I paid $1800 for this set of rails and well worth it for the quality that he produces."

"Two months ago I was looking for a company to help me with my flooring project and I wanted to find someone who could do it as soon as possible. Bayside Builders came as promised and gave me a great price for what I was asking them to do, which is install laminate wood floors throughout my house. The quality of service that this company provides is top notch and their craftsmanship is very impressive. If you want to work with a company that is professional and has great customer service, this is the one to call."

"Leo was very helpful and quick to respond. We’re happy with how our 2 bathrooms turned out. Project was completed within the time promised. Our only complaint is that the workers did not clean up very well. But overall, we’re satisfied and we’ll use them again."

"It was a pleasure to work with Ariel and GMD Builder. They responded to our request and scheduled a site visit promptly. We needed a quote and recommendations for installing a metal railing for a ~60' long curved staircase from our back door to the garden and pool area above. GMD gave us several options for both function and aesthetics. They were great in listening to our thoughts and coming to a good solution. They were flexible, reliable, and honest. We would use them again."

Stair Companies FAQs, answered by experts

Railing height codes do not differ for indoor and outdoor structures. Instead, what will have the biggest impact is the type of rail (hand versus guard rail), what your local building codes dictate, and the scope or height of your stairs, deck, or balcony to begin with. 

Building exterior porch steps requires wood or material that can handle exposure to the outdoor elements. Use pressure-treated lumber for the stringers and pressure-treated cedar, outdoor-rated wood, or composite decking material for the rest of the structure.

Clean regularly, inspect for wear, and reseal or repaint as needed to protect the wood.

There are a lot of ways you can get your basement stairs looking nice, but the best options are installing laminate plank flooring or painting the risers, staining the treads, and installing a carpet runner. Vinyl flooring is less involved but will be more expensive, and both options are suitable for most DIYers.

Key signs that a railing or staircase needs replacement relate to instability, visible damage, and component failure. Check for any wobbling, creaking, or looseness when you apply weight. Visually inspect for cracks, splits, and damaged or missing balusters or spindles. For exterior deck railings, also look for specific signs of weather damage like visible rot, warping, and rusted hardware. Additionally, any railing that is outdated and does not meet current building codes should be replaced to ensure safety and prevent falls.
