Two crews showed up to do the windows.  One was very good with interior window trim and exterior caulking.  The second crew left too large a gap between most interior moldings and had to be redone.  Exterior caulking by the second crew has resulted in water leaks when washing down the windows.  Also, the silicone caulking around the exterior edge of the windows was too wide and has attracted dirt giving us a brown rim around our white windows.  The individual contracted to do the front wood door was not very cooperative and had to be called back to do a better job.

Stair Companies questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

You can refinish stairs without standing by using chemical strippers, buffing with a power buffer, or covering with a different finish. While these are all viable options, choosing high-grit (smooth) sandpaper and working carefully will be the best way to prepare the stairs for refinishing. Power sanders can be purchased at low prices and can save hours of sanding work.

While they sound similar, handrails and guardrails serve different purposes. A handrail is the part of the railing you grip for balance and support while walking up or down stairs. A guardrail, on the other hand, is a safety barrier designed to prevent falls from elevated platforms such as balconies, decks, or stair landings. A single rail system may serve both functions in some staircases, but code requirements can differ for each.

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.

Apply a wood stain or sealant to properly maintain a wood deck railing and keep it looking new. Sealants protect wood from moisture and weathering. Regularly inspect the railing for loose screws, damaged balusters, and other signs of wear to make timely repairs. Routinely clean the railing using mild soap, water, and a soft bristle brush.
