Install Stair Railings questions, answered by experts

Generally 1-2 weeks, depending on project complexity and material availability.

Vinyl is generally considered to be the best option for homeowners seeking railings that are both durable and affordable. Vinyl provides protection against the mold and rot that can develop within wood railings. Composite is another budget-friendly option. However, people building high-end decks often prefer the look of glass panels or metal rails.

Guarantees proper safety compliance and aesthetic continuity with surrounding decor.

If you're looking to update your stairway by replacing your carpet, the cost to change carpet stairs to hardwood stairs is between $75 and $200 per stair if you’re installing brand-new wood flooring. If you already have usable wood underneath your carpets, expect to pay between $100 and $300 to remove the carpet. However, even with existing wood on your staircase, your overall costs will increase if you need to refinish and stain the wood.

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.

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.
