Frequently Asked Questions

We can usually start within a week of your call, depending on our schedule and material availability. Our crew will do a quick site visit to check measurements and any code requirements. We work around your calendar, not forcing you to take time off. If you need a fast turn-around, let us know and we’ll prioritize. Weather can affect start dates, especially heavy rain or freeze-thaw cycles.

Installation includes measuring the deck edges, cutting and fitting the railing posts, rails and balusters, and anchoring them to the deck joists. We use corrosion-resistant fasteners and hardware that meet local building codes. The job also covers sanding, priming and painting or powder-coating if you choose. All hardware is tightened to prevent wobble, and we clean up the work area afterward. We make sure the railing height and spacing prevent falls as required by law.

Pricing is based on the linear footage of railing, the material you pick, and any extra work like custom caps or post reinforcement. We charge a flat labor rate per hour and add the cost of hardware and finish. If the deck has hard-to-reach spots, there may be a small access fee. We give a written estimate before starting, so you know exactly what you’ll pay. No hidden fees; any changes are discussed and approved ahead of time.

You don’t need to be home the whole time, but we do need access to the deck and a clear area for material delivery. A quick walk-through before we start helps avoid surprises. If you have pets, keep them secured away from the work zone. We’ll call you if any issues pop up that need your decision. For any questions, you can reach us at (888) 403-7043.

A typical residential deck railing job takes one to two days, depending on size and material. Small decks can be done in a single day, while larger ones may need a second day for finish work. Weather delays can add extra time, especially if we need to wait for dry conditions. We’ll schedule a clear start and finish window so you can plan your week. After we finish, we’ll do a final safety check before we leave.

We stand behind our work with a one-year warranty on all labor and materials we install. If any railing loosens or a finish peels within that period, we’ll come back and fix it at no charge. The warranty doesn’t cover damage caused by misuse or extreme weather beyond normal exposure. We keep records of the installation and all hardware used for reference. Our goal is to give you a safe, long-lasting railing you can trust.

Start by measuring the length of your deck where the railing will go. Remove any old railing or debris that could interfere with installation. Check the local building code for height and spacing requirements. Make sure the deck surface is clean and level before we begin. Gather any permits if your city requires them before work starts.

We service the greater Chicago metro area, including suburbs and nearby towns. Our crew can travel to locations within a 50-mile radius of our base. We focus on residential deck railing projects only. If you're outside that zone, let us know and we can discuss possible arrangements. We aim to keep travel time low so we can start your job promptly.

Yes, we clean up the worksite before we leave. All old railing parts and scrap material are taken away. We sweep the deck surface to remove dust and wood shavings. Any leftover nails or fasteners are collected and disposed of safely. You will be left with a tidy deck ready for use.

Weekend work may have a small surcharge due to overtime. Our crew shows up ready to work the full day. We’ll confirm the exact time the day before the appointment.
