"After purchasing an Angie's List Deal, I received the measuring kit in the mail promptly. The template and instructions provided to draw my split table top and each of the leaves were easy to use and understand. I mailed the completed materials and received the table pads very quickly. The table splits in the middle to allow insertion of up to 3 additional leaves. The table also has 2 drop leaves. That's 7 pads. All fit perfectly. I have used them on the table for family parties (not every day) and they're durable and built to last. I keep them in the box they arrived in to protect them when not in use. These are a worthwhile investment."

"I will definitely recommend this company. He came right away and gave us an estimate. When we called to tell him we wanted him to do the job and came promptly and took the measurements that he needed and returned the next morning and completed our job of removing the old gate and installed a brand new one. This gate is amazing!!!! And he came in under his quote because he did not need to use a pair sleeve because there was already one in the post. I highly recommend!!!!!"

"Quality contractors who take pride in their work are very hard to find, Especially if they are out-of-state. I live in California and this contractor is located in Illinois. Justin worked on a 3-bedroom, 2 bath rental home I own in Illinois. Justin installed a wrought iron hand railings on the front porch and also repaired cracked concrete. His personality matched his work ethics. Justin was professional and overall, was very easy to communicate with. he took pride in his work. It was truly a job well done. Thanks Justin!"

"Carpet restreched for every room in three bedroom ranch home. The project objective was to remove ripples in the carpets which had developed due to initial poor installation - home builder / carpet dealer would not stand behind their installation. This contractor was very honest and professional - project started and completed on time within cost estimates."

"Amazing to work with. I provided a rough sketch of our idea and he made it happen. Provided updates along the way and stopped and asked us questions if he was unsure about a specific detail while he was in the process of construction. The table he built was Made to last and have not had any issues."

Install Stair Railings FAQs, answered by experts

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.

The time it takes to install a spiral staircase depends on whether you choose a kit or a custom design. Prefabricated kits can often be installed in as little as one to two days, while custom or complex installations may take several days to a week, especially if structural modifications are necessary.

If you're looking to update your stairway by replacing your carpet, the cost to change carpet stairs to hardwood stairs is between $75 and $200 per stair if you’re installing brand-new wood flooring. If you already have usable wood underneath your carpets, expect to pay between $100 and $300 to remove the carpet. However, even with existing wood on your staircase, your overall costs will increase if you need to refinish and stain the wood.

The lifespan of a spiral staircase depends on the material used and the level of maintenance provided. Metal and composite staircases can last up to 30 years or more with proper care, while wood staircases may require refinishing or repairs over time. Regular maintenance extends the life and appearance of your staircase.

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.
