Frequently Asked Questions

Can you replace just the railings?

Yes, providing the posts and framing structure are solid and securely attached. We can verify this during our visit.

Can you rebuild stairs without rebuilding the deck?

Yes, stair replacement is a common service. We can detach the old stringers and build a new, code-compliant set of stairs for your existing deck.

Wood vs. Metal railings — what's best?

Metal (aluminum) is lower maintenance and offers better visibility. Wood is traditional and often more affordable upfront but requires staining/painting.

Do stairs and railings require permits?

Generally, yes. Safety alterations usually require inspection. We will handle the permit application process for you.

How long does it take to build?

2-6 weeks to build.
