We are considering adding a railing to our home. Most homes on the (new) street, do not have railings and are similar in style. This picture was taken before our grass and landscaping was finished.
We are thinking of doing square vinyl posts and then just a traditional vinyl railing but I don't want to look like the house is going backwards in time. thoughts?
