Do I need railings on my deck by code?
In most cases, yes. Decks a certain height above the ground (often 30″ or more) require guardrails that meet specific height and spacing rules. We’ll review your deck and make sure everything is up to code.
How long does deck railing installation usually take?
Most projects are completed in one to a few days, depending on deck size, existing conditions, and the materials you choose. You’ll get a clear timeline with your estimate.
Can you replace just the railings without rebuilding the entire deck?
Often, yes. If the deck framing is sound, we can replace only the railings (and any damaged posts or stairs). If we find structural issues, we’ll go over repair options with you first.
What type of railing is the most low-maintenance?
Composite, PVC, and aluminum railings are the easiest to maintain. They don’t require painting or staining and hold up well against moisture, rot, and insects.
Do you handle permits and inspections?
Yes. When permits or inspections are needed, we can help manage that process or guide you through it so your project is completed safely and correctly.
Do deck railings come with a warranty?
Many railing products include a manufacturer warranty, and our workmanship is backed by the Handyman Connection of Wilmington commitment to quality. We’ll review the specific coverage for your project.
