Lux Renovations, LLC exclusive provider of the Owens Corning Basement Finishing System, has been serving New England homeowners since 2002. Our dedication to customer experience and satisfaction has won us Owens Corning's top customer service ranking nationally for the last 17 years in a row. Something like that doesn't happen by accident. We are committed to insuring that all of our customers describe their experience with us as "the best contractor experience I ever had". If you are considering a basement finishing project please allow us to show you how Owens Corning has changed the industry with this unique system. A free consultation and design is always available.

"Overall, the finishing of my basement went pretty smooth. The Owens Corning product, drop down ceiling, and flooring are all really sharp. In the beginning everything went fast and smooth with the framing and wall/floor/ceiling install being done within 2 weeks. There were some hiccups with minor imperfections, tv mount in wrong spot, etc. Those were fixed promptly. After that is when I ran into issues with other items in my contract that were not taken care of and the project felt forgot about. Just had some minor electric work, stairs to get carpeted, and didn't receive hanging clips yet. I had to constantly ask about these items and every answer would be "I forgot to ask or send the clips". I eventually got the items completed, but am not happiest that it took almost a month and constant reminding to get these items that should've been scheduled for during the project."

Patriot was established by four industry leaders with over 50 years of collective experience. Drawing from extensive collaboration with major home improvement corporations, we developed a strategic vision that culminated in the formation of Patriot. Our motivation stemmed from identifying inefficiencies within prominent home improvement firms and their impact on everyday consumers. At Patriot, our mission is rooted in a commitment to serve the community.

"I was very impressed from the beginning to the very end of my shower project with Patriots. They were able to take an empty space in my bathroom and create a plan for a shower that would fit in that space. I especially liked how I was able to see and feel some of the components they were going to use, let me pick the colors I needed and showed me pictures of how my new shower would look went it was done. All the workers were very respectful of my house while doing the job, very knowledgeable and explained what they were doing as they went along working. I would definitely recommend Patriots Bath Remodeling to anyone needing to either replace or start a new project in their bathroom."

"I signed a contract on the first week of June to have PIC Home ?Pros? remodel 3 bathrooms. They stayed for a week in the middle of September, and stopped coming, leaving a vanity in one bathroom, and a shower door in another bathroom completely uninstalled. On the last day here, I was told shower door still has not been manufactured yet, but would take a couple of weeks. They told me that it would cost $150 to have them come back to finish installation, even though contract was for them to complete the work. They ignored my emails to them, so after waiting for 3 weeks and receiving response to my email, I called them, and was told that the shower door is not ready, and even though it?s been 4 months since it was supposed to be ordered, there is still no ETA. I asked that they come back to install the vanity, since we still have no sink in one bathroom. I was told that would cost another $650 to come back and install it. They will work until they are paid in full, then abandon you. "

Carpenters cut, measure and shape lumber in useful ways. Working from a master plan, they create wooden structures, piece by piece. Their work involves mastering a wide variety of hand and power tools. Some of the work they do involves cutting wood using chisels, planes, saws and sanders.

"The first picture is our family deck before and the second is after. I could not recommend Norsemen Construction enough! The founder is extremely reliable and reasonable, they are willing to make sure you get what you are looking for and then some. They had also done two door replacements for us, beautiful work. We will be contacting Norsemen 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.

Choosing between staining or painting stairs depends on your desired look and the condition of the wood. Staining enhances the natural wood grain and is more durable for high-traffic areas, making it ideal for high-quality wood and a traditional finish. Painting offers more color flexibility and a modern appearance, which is great for lower-quality wood or matching specific décor, but it can chip and require more maintenance.

Most building codes list a minimum width of 36 inches and a maximum height of 7¾ inches. However, for the most comfort and spaciousness, you’ll want to aim for a width of at least 48 inches and a height of 7 inches. Again, it’s always a good idea to base your numbers off steps that you already use comfortably.

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.

The general rule of thumb is that posts should be no more than 6 feet apart when calculating railing post spacing. The purpose of a deck or staircase railing system is to provide safety and support. For this support, the more posts the system has, the sturdier it’ll be. However, local municipal building codes always take precedence.
