Each job is as unique as those I am working not only for but just as importantly those I am working WITH. By this I mean none other than every client(s) is to each their own who some already have a very distinct, detailed, and predetermined vision as far as what they want. Some don't have the slightest idea and are looking for my input, suggestions, expenses and help coming up with a budget that is with in ones reach and that does not overwhelm or discourage a person from making their once dream space a reality. Every person I work with is encouraged to share any ideas, whether you've been revisiting an old idea or wanting to try something new. I will ALWAYS take time to not only sit down & listen to you but discuss, calculate, provide a copy of and discuss any ADDED expenses as well as any incurred CREDITS due as a result of any changes made to an already existing customer agreement. All proposed changes / costs will be discussed to its fullest and must be signed off as accepted by the client requesting proposed changes. I have an open mind policy meaning 1. I always love a good challenge ( The more outside the box thinking... The better! ) 2. My mind is ALWAYS open to ones suggestions , questions, concerns , OR sometimes some of us just need a few minutes of device free, human to human interaction where something as simple as an old fashion conversation is warranted. In all regards , I as your employee , My goal is to give you the tools, provide you with all aspects of your project whether big , small or somewhere in between. Including physical, informative, assistance with finding the best deals, Offering my assistance in the search for items not available in stores or if one is not interested I am happy to fully take on the challenge myself or act as your "buyer" if you will.

"I couldn't have asked for a better contractor to complete our roof project. I obtained two other estimates but Adam was far and away the best option. He was priced the best but what really sets him apart was his prompt responses and professionalism. He was the only contractor I didn't have to continually followup with to get answers or schedule a meeting. Everything was on time and completed when he said it would be. Thanks again Adam!"

Install Stair Railings questions, answered by experts

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.

The same rules apply for decks and balconies. Balcony guardrails should also be at least 36 inches and up to 42 inches tall. Additionally, they should be able to support a certain amount of weight without collapsing—200 pounds of horizontal load or 100 pounds vertical load and 50 pounds horizontal load simultaneously. 

Premade or stock staircases are a common choice because of their affordability and easy install. These structures cost between $1,000 and $2,000 depending on materials, size, and design. 

Custom staircases are more costly—between $5,000 and $10,000 or more—but are great for unique spaces and main staircases that beg for a grand focal point. When opting for a custom staircase, plan to work with your contractor on design blueprints and project timelines.

The most comfortable stair riser height is 7 inches. Building your deck stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. It is possible to design your deck stairs with risers measuring up to 12 inches, but this height could be challenging for people with mobility issues, children, or smaller pets.

The International Building Code requires individual step risers in a residential staircase to measure between 4 and 7-3/4 inches and the maximum rise of a staircase not to exceed 12 feet between landings. Individual step treads can’t be less than 10 inches deep.
