"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."

"The Bayside Builders Group is an exceptional company with the customer service to match. They were kind enough to help me on my deck project, and they definitely went above-and beyond what most contractors do! From Shai's informative talks before starting up the work to his efficiency displayed as he led his team. It made things go smoothly without sacrificing quality! I'm glad we found them for this job - thanks again!"

"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

Building codes typically require handrails if your porch is 30” or more off the ground. However, it's important to check your local regulations and building codes to make sure, as this can differ depending on your location. When in doubt, check with a local porch handrail pro, who will know the local codes and be able to get permits if any are required.

DIY repairs are possible for minor cosmetic issues, such as tightening loose screws, provided you have the right tools. However, for extensive or structural repairs, it is recommended to hire a professional. Professional services ensure the structural integrity of the stairs and railings, guaranteeing safety and providing a long-term solution.

Spiral staircases can be safe for all ages if designed with features such as code-compliant handrails, non-slip treads, and proper spacing. However, narrow treads and steep angles may pose challenges and a safety hazard for young children or those with mobility issues, so consider safety upgrades or alternative designs if needed.

Yes, many services include refinishing as part of the repair process. Confirm with your contractor.

To child- or pet-proof your deck railing, look for railing systems with narrow spacing—under 4 inches—between balusters or panels. For added safety, consider installing a clear acrylic or mesh guard along the inside of the railing to prevent small limbs or paws from slipping through. Avoid horizontal rails that adventurous kids can climb like ladders. You can also add self-closing gates at stair openings to limit access.
