My wife and I are currently renovating our home. I chose to replace some existing stair rails plus hand-rail and hired Specialized Stair & Rail to install a custom setup made of American Walnut in our home. We had checked the competition and were greatly disappointed with their lack of knowledge both about their product as well as the different species of wood. They also lost our original quote which didn't help in the trust department. Our experience at Specialized was a polar opposite.... We were greeted immediately after entering the store and the fellow we spoke to (Rob Bernardo) showed us

We had a steel raling installed in our home. Even though it was more expensive than we had expected, we were delighted with the final result. The consultant (Justin) was very thorough and attentive to our questions. The installer (Darryl) showed expertise and skill during the installation. Both, Justin and Darryl were very polite, neat and considerate of our home and time. We highly recommend them

Specialized Stair and Rail are amazing! They came in to take over (and redo) a project that had been a complete debacle by another company. Their professionalism and quality of work (they mortise the spindles properly, instead of using a small and unsightly screw) makes the price well worth it. My suggestion is that before you select a stair and rail company ask them if they mortise their spindles. There's a reason why other companies can underbid the quality ones.
