"Mike was very good to work with, professional, timely and considerate. Mike used top notch contractors and our home was completely stick built, no prefab trusses were used. Our custom built home is beautiful with details that compliment each room and the outside as well. Mike made suggestions we didn't think about and the outcome was perfect. We highly recommend Mike for your build."

"thanks to this site, I called Greater Wilm. Structure about a brick house I was buying that had cracked brick and unlevel floors. I assumed I would only (!) need to have that section of the home jacked up and the foundation repaired. Brian returned my call quickly, and met me and my realtor at the house (was a 45 min. drive for him) to give me his opinion and verbal price quote. Many contractors/carpenters would have just focused on the project and the money involved, but Brian wanted to see WHY the house had sunk. He pointed out the major structure issues with the tresses in the attic, joists, as well as other red flags, that would cause problems later. He's a master carpenter and his knowledge, experience (and sense of humor!) was refreshing and valuable. After meeting with him I decided to pull my accepted offer on the home and feel I have saved myself untold amounts of money, stress and frustration. I will definately be hiring this company in the future."

Install Stair Railings questions, answered by experts

The most comfortable height depends on you and your household, but most railings are between 32 inches and 40 inches. To be more granular, disability requirements require railing heights to be between 34 inches and 38 inches high. For this reason—and to remain compliant—many people find these heights perfectly acceptable and stay within these ranges.

In some cases, stairs without carpet are actually slipperier than carpeted stairs, but if the carpet is brand new, dirty, or just slick, it may seem like your stairs are the most slippery ones in existence. Fortunately, traction treads can be added over most stair surface materials, increasing the traction you’re able to get and reducing the risk of slipping.

Spiral staircases can be installed outdoors using weather-resistant materials, such as galvanized steel, aluminum, or treated wood. Outdoor installations may require additional coatings or finishes to prevent rust and decay, and costs may be higher due to site prep and exposure to the elements. Outdoor staircases must also comply with local building codes, which can affect the dimensions, handrail requirements, and load capacities to guarantee safety in all weather conditions.

Yes. Many manufacturers make stair treads that you can install over carpeted stairs without needing to do any cutting or drilling. Stair treads can also be installed on wood, marble, and other stair surface materials. Just be sure to double-check the information for the specific product you’re buying to ensure its adhesive or installation process will work with the type of stairs you have.

Wood and metal are popular railing options for concrete structures. Although wood is less expensive, metal will offer more durability in the long run. Wood is more susceptible to the elements, like rain and wind, so it can wear down over time. 

As for metal, iron and stainless steel are the strongest and longest-lasting options, which is why they tend to be more popular than aluminum railings. Although if you’re looking to tighten your budget, aluminum is still a good choice. Vinyl is another railing option that stands up well against moisture, but it isn’t as attractive as wood or metal railings. Composite railing offers the look of wood without requiring as much maintenance.
