Here are the before and after photos of new vinyl railings on an existing brick landing

This  previous customer had us come out and remove and replace the existing railings on their home.

We removed and disposed of the rusted steel railings from the porch

New vinyl railings were installed on the landing and stairs for a white maintenance free appearance.

All of our railings come standard with aluminum stiffeners and are a completed color though out the members.

Many railings use a white top coat over a less expensive gray PVC raw material in order to save on dye.

This could pose a future problem because if the railings get scratched the gray  core material will show.

The new maintenance free screen porch will be 14′ x 16′, a 8′ x 8′ grill landing and set of stairs to the ground.

The existing configuration though wider to avoid the kitchen window will be utilized as the design is convenient for driveway access.

Premium 5/4 decking was used for both the porch and the adjacent landing.

Support post and beam for the roof are vinyl sleeved 6 x 6 post with doubled 2 x 8′s that will be wrapped with aluminum trim.

Rafters are 2 x 8 traditional framing for the vaulted ceiling that will be covered in vinyl as well.

Roofing is a matching 3 tab asphalt 30 year shingle with ridge vent installed.

Vinyl siding on this project is a d-5 straight lap style.

New vinyl railings, lattice and PVC exterior trim is installed on all exterior posts and band boards.

The screening product for this project is Screen Eze which is much more user friendly that the products in your local Big box store.
