My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Stair railing

11 years ago
Is the stair railing original or new? Looking to get a wrought iron stair replacement in Chicago

    The railing on the stair is part of the original home. The fence was new in the 1980's and is made of stock parts. We were able to match the stair railing in the rear terrace of the home with new and similar components. We worked with a local iron worker to make the newel posts and handrail cap.
