Commercial and Residential framing services in both wood and metal; drywall finishing, painting, insulation services, siding installation renovation & additions, roofing installation, carpentry, deck installation, and interior trimming. Quality is the main goal for each project performed. We are professionals at everything we do. I am a small business owner and have been in this line of work for over 20 years and in business for over 5 years

"Unfortunately I cannot rate their service, the quality of the work or price because they never sent over the estimate. They sent me an email after the walk-through letting me know that several jobs had came up and they were very busy. Apparently too busy to do an estimate and win our business. A little frustrating because we took the time out of our day to go over ideas and discuss options for our kitchen, bathrooms, etc. They even suggested that we go with another contractor if we couldn’t wait. That was over a month ago and we still haven’t heard back."

Install Stair Railings questions, answered by experts

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.

Permit requirements for replacing stair railings vary by location. In many areas, minor repairs or replacements that don’t alter the structure do not require a permit. However, significant changes, especially those that affect structural integrity or involve major design alterations, often need a permit. Check with your local building authority to ensure you comply with any regulations.

Yes, carpeted stairs are safer because carpet helps reduce the chances of slips and falls compared to harder materials like wood, vinyl, tile, or steel staircases, which lack the friction needed for a secure tread. And, if you do happen to fall, carpeted stairs also have more cushioning in the case of an accident.

Wood and metal are the two most common materials used. Breaking it down further, homeowners tend to use a slightly higher grade of wood than they might elsewhere—it isn’t uncommon to see maple, mahogany, redwood, and other luxury woods used. Metal tends to be aluminum or steel due to the fact that you don’t need very protective metal, as the material isn’t being subjected to any weather.

Most building codes require that stair railing balusters should be spaced no more than 4 inches apart. Also known as the "4-inch sphere rule," that distance is large enough for a 4-inch sphere to pass through. To do this, pros will often place three balusters per foot of stair railing.

By submitting this question, I acknowledge and agree that Angi may publicly display my name, city, state, and question on the website for professionals and others to see.
