    Railings: wood or aluminum

    Wood railings

    Wood railings are built to match the deck and can be stained and sealed along with it.

    Aluminum railings and balusters

    Aluminum railings are durable and low-maintenance, with a clean, modern look, and they come in a range of finishes to suit your home. Aluminum balusters are also a way to upgrade an existing railing.

    New, added or replaced

    Stairs and railings can be part of a new deck, added to an existing one or replaced when the old ones wear out. If your stairs or railings wobble, we look at them on site and explain whether a repair or a rebuild makes more sense.

    Built to code

    Stairs and railings keep people safe, so they are built to code with corrosion-resistant hardware, like the rest of the deck.

    What makes stairs safe and comfortable

    Every step the same height and depth, a solid, level base at the bottom, well-supported stringers and a handrail that is easy to grab. Uneven steps are easy to trip on, especially after dark, so it also helps to have light on or near the stairs.

    Upgrading an old railing

    A railing takes a lot of weather and a lot of leaning. If its posts are solid, new rails and balusters can change the look of the whole deck. If the posts move, they are fixed or replaced first: a railing is only as strong as the posts that hold it.

    How the estimate works

    We come out, measure the stairs and the railing runs, and talk through the materials and finish with you. You get a written, line-item quote with clear, upfront pricing and no hidden fees.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can you add stairs to my existing deck?

    Yes. We build new stairs and handrails for existing decks as well as for new ones.

    Wood or aluminum railings: which should I choose?

    Wood railings match a wood deck and can be stained along with it. Aluminum railings need little upkeep and give a clean, modern look. We can go over both on site.

    Can you fix or replace a wobbly railing?

    Yes. We repair or rebuild loose railings and handrails, or replace them with new wood or aluminum railings.

    Can you replace just the stairs or the railing?

    Yes. Stairs and railings can be replaced on their own when the rest of the deck is sound. We look at the deck on site and explain what makes sense.

    What makes deck stairs safe?

    Even steps, a solid base at the bottom, well-supported stringers and a sturdy handrail. Stairs are built to code with corrosion-resistant hardware, like the rest of the deck.

    Is there a warranty on stairs and railings?

    Yes. Stairs and railings built, replaced or repaired on an existing deck come with a 1-year warranty on workmanship. On a new deck, they are covered by the new deck warranty.

    How much do new deck stairs or railings cost?

    It depends on the number of steps, the length of the railings, the materials and the finish. After a free on-site measurement you get a written, line-item quote with no hidden fees.
