Sacramento Porch Railing Installation

Recent Review: They did a fabulous job and their price is fair. They did everything I wanted with our complicated and unusual design on our deck. They were very accommodating and nice people. They did everything on time and finished the job early for us since they knew we were having a party.

Recent Review: Jeff did an outstanding job. When I initially called him and came out promptly and gave me an estimate. His estimate was several thousand dollars less than the 2nd bid I got from another deck contractor. He started the demolition and replacement work promptly. This was a very large job so it did take over 2 weeks to complete, but his guys were on the job every day from 7 am- 3 pm. Jeff came up with great design ideas for us and was very accommodating when I asked for a couple of small changes. The decks look absolutely beautiful and we couldn't be more pleased.

Recent Review: Dan was great to work with, very friendly and professional. His work is excellent and reasonable. I would highly recommend him!!!

Business Description: Price starts from $14 ln.ft. including material, installation, and hauling away old fence. (for pressure treated posts and rails, and 1x4x6 redwood fence boards)

Recent Review: I have filed an complaint against Brock Heath from Heath Stairworks with the State Licensing Board against and BBB. I hired him for a handrail installation in our home. I stated from the very beginning that I did not want any red tones in the stain and I have it in writing. I even met with him to choose the color, a walnut shade. The day the railing was installed I was at work and my husband was able to work from home so someone would be there. The installer, Russ, showed up with the wrong post and after my husband told him he didn't like it, he called Brock. A few minutes later, Brock called my husband and tried to convince him to keep it but my husband said no. Russ then left for a few hours to get the one I had chosen. Later that day, before applying the stain he showed it to my husband. My husband said it was very dark and had reddish tones so Russ said he would lighten it. After that, he showed my husband a stain sample and insisted that after lightening it, he had gotten the color I had chosen with Brock. No alternative was offered. My husband, who, was not involved in the decision making process and was only home to open the door, was under the impression that they were professionals and had picked everything out with me, agreed. I got home around 7.00 pm and Russ was still there. Since he showed up with the wrong post and took almost 2 hours to get a new one, got off to a late start and was still there. When I saw the railing, my first reaction was that I loved it. Russ did a good job. I asked about the color and he said that the wood had taken the stain that way and to see how it looked the next day once it was dried. I sent Brock an email saying that we were happy with the work Russ had done. The next morning when I got up I realized that the stain was red!! I immediately took pictures and sent them to Brock. On my way to work I called him and what I encountered was unbelievable. Brock said that the color I picked out was Mahogany. I told him that there was NO way I would pick that color because it has red tones and that I picked a walnut shade. The conversation only got worse from there. Brock blamed me and threatened to put a lien on my property and send me to collections if I didn't pay him. At that point, all I wanted to know was what my options were to fix it. Brock offered nothing and was a complete BULLY sending me several threatening emails. When I asked him why he had shown me stain samples with red tones when I had indicated in writing that I didn't want, his answer was that "It is not Heath Stairworks' responsibility to interpret "red" the same way you do" I am beyond appalled with Brock's behavior. I tried to reach an agreement with him and even offered to split the cost to have it re-stained and his answer was no. We have just paid a lot of money for something we are not happy with and have been blamed, threatened and bullied by Brock Heath. I'm sure that there are many great handrail installers out there, please keep our story in mind when considering Heath Stairworks.

Recent Review: THEY CAME OUT, LEVELED THE GROUND AND PUT IN THE SUPPORTS. THEN THEY PUT THE DECK UP AND SIDE RAILS ALL THE WAY AROUND. AFTER THAT, THEY PUT A TOP ON IT AS WELL TO LET LIGHT IN.

Business Description: I learned my craft the old-fashioned way, from the bottom up. I started as a teenager, literally digging ditches and hauling supplies. I worked into roofing and rough framing. Through the years, I was able to be trained in carpentry, drywall, painting, plumbing, electrical, and even steel. Eventually, I spent several years working for a local steel fabricator as a project coordinator, where I worked on portions of the Lincoln Plaza and Sacramento Light-Rail projects. In 1990, I began working on roof beams under a now retired general contractor. Finally, I went to a trade a school and earned my General Building Contractor's License in 1995. I've specialized in all-things-roof-beam ever since, even receiving a Patent (opens new window) in 2002 for inventing a tool accessory that made working at heights, i.e. roof beam work, safer. The name "The Beam Guy" was bestowed on me by a beam restoration client who began referring me to friends as The Beam Guy.

Recent Review: Philip was able to replace rotted boards and substructure of our deck. It is again solid and looks really good. He also designed and constructed a wooden rail with step rails around our front porch which is a great addition to our porch and safety walking up and down our front stairs. Prices were very reasonable was work was completed in a timely manner.
