Handrails and Stairs in Tallahassee: two different jobs
On an older Tallahassee home, the work is often porch steps that have simply seen a lot of years. On a newer home it is more likely a deck stair or a rail that has worked loose and been put off for a while. Either way, Kevin rebuilds the steps and resets the posts so they hold real weight again, and he looks at the condition himself before recommending what needs doing.
Leon County runs from the 1920s to 1950s homes of neighborhoods like Myers Park and Betton Hills to the planned communities of the Killearns, and we work on both.
Porch steps, stair treads and handrails see a lot of use and a lot of weather, and they are worth keeping solid. We rebuild porch steps and stair treads, set and anchor railing posts to hold real weight, and replace rails and balusters on decks where they have gone soft. Railing posts that were not secured properly will loosen over time whatever the rail on top looks like, so that is where the work goes. Most of these are one or two day jobs, and Kevin evaluates each one himself before starting.

Handrails and Stairs in Tallahassee Questions
My railing feels loose. Is that a real safety issue?
It can be. Railing posts that were not secured properly will fail over time whatever the rail on top of them looks like, so that is where Kevin starts. He sets and anchors posts to hold real weight.
Can you rebuild worn porch or deck steps?
Yes. Kevin rebuilds porch steps and stair treads and replaces rails and balusters that have gone soft. On an older home the wear usually shows at the base, where the steps meet the ground and stay damp.
Do you work on older homes around Tallahassee?
Yes. Older Tallahassee homes can come with unique dimensions, original trim, and architectural details that aren't always available off the shelf. When repairs or updates are needed, we take the time to work with what's already there, whether that means carefully matching existing details or creating custom pieces for the home.
Does it matter whether my Tallahassee home is older or newer?
Yes. Tallahassee has a mix of older homes with original character and newer homes with more modern construction. Older homes may have unique dimensions, original trim, or details that require careful matching or custom carpentry, while newer homes may have builder-grade finishes homeowners want to upgrade or personalize. We work with both and tailor the approach to the home and the project.
