"I have done 2 remodeling projects with Bill Barbor Homes. At no point during bathroom/tub x2 remodels, as well as multiple exterior deck and siding repars did I feel any worry. I also experienced very reasonable pricing. I would definitely use them again. I would also choose a custom home built by them after experiencing the knowledge base they have in construction. I am from a family in construction . Love them!"

Install Stair Railings questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

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.

Although many types of railing can be fairly easy to install, cable and rope railing systems are probably the easiest. All you need to do is string them through and secure them. Barring those choices, panel railings that are pre-cut to the required size can also be very simple to DIY.

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.

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.
