Iron Balusters Stairs and Handrail Remodel in Moorestown NJ











New Iron Balusters and Hardwood Stairs and Handrail Remodel in Moorestown NJ. This was a real nice couple who both worked during the day and gave us access to the house for duration of the project. Can I say something here? I don't know why, but it seems like every job that is scheduled like that, always goes smoothly. Not saying others don't go smoothly, but maybe there's less pressure? or drama? and we can concentrate fully on task at hand instead of worrying about cats or dogs or children being near or around all the tools and open doors and such, and not having to juggle cars in the driveway daily.  I'm not complaining, but it is nice whenever there are less things to worry about.  So, if you need stair and rail work done, and you have a vacation scheduled in the near future, many folks schedule them at same time, to make life easier for them and us. And they come home to a brand new foyer/stair/rail, and they didn't have to live with the daily disruption of their life. Anyway, they couldn't be happier, after replacing the floors, and remodeling their master bath, we came in and removed the builder grade pine stairs that were set really badly out of level, and replaced them with a brand new custom fit stair built correctly, and installed correctly. We followed with the posts and rail and nosing, followed by the stainer/painter, and we came back and installed the iron balusters. So if you're living with that original builder grade stair that you hate, be sure to give Ron  a call at 215-694-5046 and schedule your FREE appointment, or send him some pics of your current foyer/stair to his email at 45stairman@gmail.com, and he can often give you a very close approximate number from that. So, if you want your very own New Iron Balusters and hardwood Stairs and Handrail Remodel and you live in Moorestown NJ, or surrounding towns like Haddonfield, Mt Laurel, Medford, or Marlton, call today.

Staircase Contractor Iron Baluster Specialist Morrisville PA


Your Local Staircase Contractor and Iron Baluster Specialist in Morrisville PA. This was a very clean job. Some jobs are easier than others. This was one of those. Everything came apart fairly easily, and there wasn't much to fix underneath and no big surprises. The new capping went on easily and the newel posts and rail went just as planned. Once we installed the wood part, we left for a few days while homeowner stained the new rails himself and did a really good job. Actually better than some "professionals" I've seen over the years. (Not my guys just crews you observe over the years.) Then we came back and installed the iron balusters.

 The homeowners themselves were great to work with as well. I probably don't say that enough. But these folks were really easy to work with. Note to everybody in the world. Life seems to go better if you don't bring stress into every situation you encounter, or maybe create stress for other people unnecessarily. I got the feeling these folks had their act together and didn't stress about things needlessly.

Anyway, it turned out great and they couldn't be happier. So, if you're looking for a local Staircase Contractor and/or an Iron Baluster Specialist in and around Morrisville PA, then Ron is your guy and he can be reached at 215-694-5046, or email him at 45stairman@gmail.com to schedule your FREE consultation

Wavy Iron Balusters Ocean City NJ. This was a new rail and iron baluster makeover in a couple's summer shore house. The old rail was really wimpy, note the very thin starting post in upper before picture. The couple have many grandchildren running around the house all summer and she was concerned about safety. You can tell the wife is an artist because she picked out the "wavy" balusters that is in keeping with the nautical theme of the shore house. They spent many years living abroad, and now that they're retired they can have their big family over the house and not have to worry about the old railing being a safety hazard. I'm always amazed at how amazed folks are at how sturdy our rails are when we're all done. They say things like, "I didn't know that rails could be this strong wow!" I guess people get used to flimsy construction everywhere they go, and assume that's just how it is. It's still satisfying to hear things like that at the end of every job even after 26 years and thousands of stairs and rails later. So, if you want your very own wavy iron balusters and you live in Ocean City NJ, or other shore towns like Margate, Ventnor, Wildwood, Longport, Strathmere, Sea Isle City, Avalon, or Stone Harbor, then give Ron a call at 215-694-5046 or email him at 45stairman@gmail.com and schedule your FREE consultation and learn all about the many options you have to beautify and customize your stair and rail.

S Scrolls Iron Balusters in Princeton NJ. Scrolls, scrolls, and more scrolls. Anyone who loves their scrolls is going to love this. These new homeowners were moving to a new town, new house, new school, new neighborhood.  So, naturally they wanted new rails to spruce up the place a bit. And wow what a difference! A little iron goes a long way. They couldn't be happier and that makes me happy.

One more house brought into the new century by going back a bit in timeless style, I think. Classic never goes out of style. I believe he was a financial consultant and wanted his new house, and new foyer to reflect that a little bit. We needed one day to remove the old wrought iron, and to install the new. The floor guy came in and sanded and stained the stairs and hardwood throughout the house. Once he was done, we came back and installed the iron.    

If you're loving this style and want some for your house, give us a call and we'll help you select a pattern that works for you and your style. This has a silver finish which gives it that shine you may be able to see up close in pictures. And if you're in Princeton NJ, or surrounding towns such as East or West Windsor, Lawrenceville, or Cranbury, give Ron a call at 215-694-50246 to schedule your FREE consultation and pick put your own S Scrolls Iron Balusters or any of the other of the dozens of styles to choose from in our product portfolio.

Replace Stairs Handrails Iron Balusters Blue Bell PA





Here we Replace Stairs and Install new Oak Handrails and install beautiful old-world Tuscan style Iron Balusters in Blue Bell PA. We helped an extremely discerning homeowner design her very own creation to fit her home's decor. Her wise husband wisely allowed her complete freedom while she went through the selection process. Whenever he was asked what he thought, he wisely said "I love it!!" And I must say, she really did a good job of allowing him multiple opportunities to agree with her. They really were a cute couple. It was nice to see.  It's not every day you see a happily married couple who know how to communicate, and show love and respect for one another especially in an environment where contracting and design questions need to be discussed and decided. And, I think she did a fabulous job of selecting just the right design, don't you think?

Ok, where were we? Oh yeah, so, anyway, we pulled out the old builder grade posts, rail, and wood balusters, and replaced them with what you see here. It looks like we Replaced the Stairs but we just refinished the treads and repainted the staircase and it looks brand new. It helped that her stair was in really good shape to begin with. We installed the new posts and handrails and drilled all the holes for the iron balusters to be installed later. The painter then came in and stained everything to perfection, and we followed him with the iron balusters within a day or two of polyurethane drying.

So, if you're in the Blue Bell PA or surrounding area, like Ft Washington, Lafayette Hill, Plymouth Meeting, Springhouse, Gwynedd, Abington, or Ambler, and are as wise as this husband, be sure to give Ron a call today and setup your FREE consultation. He can be reached at 215-694-5046, or his email is 45stairman@gmail.com. You can get back in your wife's good graces in no time,  and she'll glory in her very own brand new Handrails and Iron Balusters. She may even tell you how smart you are and how strong you are, and how good-looking you.....ok, ok,  maybe we're going a bit too far, but you get the point.
