"I hired Rob after talking to others about his work. He met with my wife and i, we discussed what we wanted and was thinking about. He provided a written quote and a timeline of the project. Before starting i had more questions which he went over in detail as well as made suggestions which made the end result amazing! Him and his crew were polite, respectful of time and of our house. Their attention to detail is first rate. Items like picture framing the stairs so as not to see end cuts of material, using material to get the edge of the steps covered so its not just wood, making drains for the hogwire so water cant sit in the wood, etc. To me these are things that separate them from others"

"Working with Paul and his team was a delight. We had previous water damage that had left a huge hole in our plaster ceiling. Paul was so quick to respond, gave me a fair quote, and was extremely knowledgeable about what was needed in our historic 1930 home. They came out within a week and treated our home with utmost respect and care. We were so pleased we chose Capitol Craftsmen and would 100% recommend them to anyone who needs drywall work!"

Install Stair Railings questions, answered by experts

Deck stairs should have at least three stringers rather than two. The recommended minimum width for stairs is 36 inches, and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors recommends at least three cut stringers to provide sufficient support on wood decking stairs of this width. Generally, stringers should be a maximum of 16 inches apart for wood decking and 12 inches apart for more flexible composite decking.

Most building codes require that stair railing balusters should be spaced no more than 4 inches apart. Also known as the "4-inch sphere rule," that distance is large enough for a 4-inch sphere to pass through. To do this, pros will often place three balusters per foot of stair railing.

The best finish for wood stairs is polyurethane, specifically a high-durability option like oil-based or water-based polyurethane. Oil-based polyurethane provides a rich, amber tone that enhances the wood’s natural grain and is highly durable, making it ideal for areas with heavy foot traffic. Water-based polyurethane, while slightly less durable, dries faster, has less odor, and maintains the wood’s natural color without yellowing over time.

Building exterior porch steps requires wood or material that can handle exposure to the outdoor elements. Use pressure-treated lumber for the stringers and pressure-treated cedar, outdoor-rated wood, or composite decking material for the rest of the structure.

Spiral staircases can be safe for all ages if designed with features such as code-compliant handrails, non-slip treads, and proper spacing. However, narrow treads and steep angles may pose challenges and a safety hazard for young children or those with mobility issues, so consider safety upgrades or alternative designs if needed.
