"Greg is very responsive and prompt, both in giving an estimate and answering emails. The powder coated iron railings are exactly what we wanted and needed. The railings were manufactured and installed with care and attention to detail. We're very happy with this company and plan to hire them again in the spring for another railing."

"Moses and his crew came out and replaced some porch railings that had rotted away. The work was beautifully done and the railings are very sturdy. I am very happy with the work. Definitely worth the price."

"We found McCormick home builders through Angie’s list. They were not one of our original contacts, but they contacted us and came out to give us a quote. Matteo was extremely helpful, informative, honest, and gave us reasonable realistic prices, and did not try to inflate the prices or pressure us in anyway. We felt very comfortable with him immediately. We felt like he was a member of the family that we could just talk to and ask questions he was very personable. He gave us his contact number in case we had other questions and he was always available when we needed him for any type of questions or concerns. Mateo‘s team did a beautiful job. They were fast. They were efficient. They cleaned up beautifully. They did a wonderful job. They were very considerate of our time our needs and our neighbors. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Matteo from McCormick home builders for any home building projects, and we will be calling him again in the future!"

Install Stair Railings FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can often replace just the handrail if your existing balusters are in good condition and securely installed. This approach can save time and money, especially if the balusters already meet current building codes. However, make sure that the new handrail is compatible in size and shape and that you can securely fasten it to the existing baluster layout without compromising stability or safety.

Generally 1-2 weeks, depending on project complexity and material availability.

A handrail should start at the bottom step's riser and extend to the top riser, continuing slightly beyond both the top and bottom steps if possible. A good rule of thumb is from the nosing of the upper landing to the nosing of the lowest step. This extra length provides better grip and safety when entering or exiting the staircase.

Many contractors offer staircase services, but you can also find stair companies that are dedicated exclusively to staircase installation and makeovers. If you’re planning a more elaborate design, search for reputable stair building contractors who will provide estimates, detailed project drawings, and superior finished products. You might pay a little more for this specialized labor, but it’s often worth the added investment.

Vinyl is generally considered to be the best option for homeowners seeking railings that are both durable and affordable. Vinyl provides protection against the mold and rot that can develop within wood railings. Composite is another budget-friendly option. However, people building high-end decks often prefer the look of glass panels or metal rails.
