"Zach custom built a car port for us. He showed up on time, did exactly what he said he was going to do, and we couldn’t be happier with the end result. Pricing was competitive with larger companies, but his product was built with heavier gauge steel. Extremely satisfied and I would highly recommend Robertson Mobiles Welding."

Install Stair Railings FAQs, answered by experts

Whether or not any project is DIY-able depends on your personal level of handiness and willingness to extend time and effort. But in short, yes, you can install deck railing yourself if you have some basic skills. Certain types of deck railing, like cable or rope, are easier to install than wood or composite railing or more complicated types like sunburst railing.

The standard distance between deck stair stringers is 12 to 16 inches. However, these numbers vary by building material, so reference the maximum span for the material. For example, some composite materials call for a maximum distance of 10 inches to maintain their structural integrity. 

As a general rule, never leave more than 16 inches of space between your stringers. Deck stairs have higher load-bearing demands than the walking surface of the deck, so it’s important not to overshoot the space between your stair stringers.

Most homeowners prefer vinyl plank flooring to cover basement stairs, and this is generally considered the best option because it’s resistant to mold and won’t get damaged by moisture. However, carpeting is a more affordable installation and provides better traction to prevent slipping and falling. If you have kids or pets that will frequent the basement area, a carpet might be a better option to add some extra traction.

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.

The best finish for wood stairs is polyurethane, specifically a high-durability option like oil-based or water-based polyurethane. Oil-based polyurethane provides a rich, amber tone that enhances the wood’s natural grain and is highly durable, making it ideal for areas with heavy foot traffic. Water-based polyurethane, while slightly less durable, dries faster, has less odor, and maintains the wood’s natural color without yellowing over time.
