I had a great experience with Ottawa Deck and Rail. The house required railing for the new front entrance steps. Scott at the office was very quick and thorough with the estimate which was also reasonably priced. The job was completed quickly and with great workmanship by their installer Andrew. I would recommend Ottawa Deck and Rail to my friends and family.

Just wanted to leave feedback on the job we just got done at our bungalow townhouse. Ottawa Deck & Rail team did an awesome job. They were quick and receptive to provide a reasonable quote for a front porch railing we wanted installed. Within one week, we got the pricing and the work was completed professionally and efficiently. Alan did a great job! Thanks to the Ottawa Deck and Rail team.

Ottawa Deck and Rail is an excellent company. If you want to discuss a project, Kyle answers and returns phone calls promptly. He does not rush the conversation, listening patiently and communicating clearly the costs and process. The speed with which Kyle and his installer, Andrew, set up the work schedule was also impressive. Quickest response time to a job we've ever had. Andrew, the installer, was fantastic. He was polite, and he also consulted with me several times during the installation to ensure he was erecting the railing the way we wanted it. Andrew took real pride in his work, and he went out of his way to return the next day with an extra item necessitated by a slight change of plans. We highly recommend Ottawa Deck and Rail for their communication, quick job completion, and amazing employees.

local business vs. big box store

Looking to choose a rail system and not sure whether to go with a local company or a big box store (such as Home Depot, Rona, etc..) Check out our comparison of our railing system against some of our competitors.

frequently asked questions

MY STAIRS ARE QUITE STEEP/ SHALLOW, WILL THE RAILING BE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE THEM?

Yes. Unlike flat rails, the height of the top and bottom rail can be easily adjusted on stairs.

I’M NOT SURE IF THERE IS ENOUGH SUPPORT UNDERNEATH MY STEPS TO SUPPORT THE RAILS?

Most wooden or concrete stairs will hold the railings, however chipped, cracked or rotten stairs will cause instability in the railing. For wood stairs, it is also important to ensure that there is sufficient blocking underneath to accommodate 3-inch lag bolts.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE GLASS ON THE STAIRS?

Yes, it provides a very sleek finish for your home. 

WHAT HAPPENS IF WATER GETS IN THE RAILS? WILL IT RUST?

The exterior of the rails is powder coated, meaning it will be resistance to rust and scratches. As for the interior, each rail had a water drainage hole that prevents water from staying inside, making long term rusting very minimal.

CAN YOU REMOVE MY OLD RAILING?

Removal of a pre-existing rail system as well as disposal, is possible for an additional cost depending on the size, material and the extent of surface damage from the previous system. Please speak with a sales associate for an accurate estimate for your system.

DO YOU NEED TO PRE-MEASURE MY STEPS BEFORE YOU INSTALL THE RAILING?
No. The railings are all cut on-site with a mitre saw. Therefore, exact pre-measurements are not required before the day of installation.
  
IS THERE A COVER FOR THE BASE PLATE?

No. All of the lag bolts used in the railing system are powder-coated to prevent rusting, as well as match the colour of the railing system. Our reason is that in the Canadian winter-time, the base plate covers may become dislodged or damaged when shoveling snow and ice. They also may become damaged if they are stepped on.
