"We had a great experience working with Monk's! we wanted to build an accessible deck that would allow my wife - who uses a wheelchair - to have better access to our backyard. Not only did they help us design and construct a beautiful deck, but they also helped us obtain the permits required."

"Contacted National Home Improvements regarding leaking patio roof and no follow up response to issue since last year of April 2023. Still awaiting to hear back. Seems like the rain gutter is sagging in the middle of the patio where the two joints meet and water is pooling there and possibly leaking through the seams as illustrated in the photo. Poor design concept. Really disappointed with customer service and quality of product especially for what we have paid for. They clearly don't care about taking care of their customers. I would never hire National Home Improvements again!!!"

Install Stair Railings questions, answered by experts

If the stairs are already covered in carpet, you will need to remove the old carpet and possibly the carpet pad. Any damage to the stairs like cracks, loose boards, or creaky treads may also need to be repaired. You may also want to sand and refinish or paint wood stairs before installing a carpet runner.

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.

Local building codes can vary, but it's most common for a handrail to be required when there are three or more steps. It may be a good idea to install one with two-step stairs if someone in the home may have difficulty using the stairs without one. Always check local codes to see what's required in your area. 

Regular cleaning, polishing, and ensuring no loose fasteners maintain both look and safety.

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.
