We construct stairways and railings that follow exact spacing, height, and grip requirements for residential safety codes in New Mexico. Choose between horizontal, vertical, or cable railings with posts in wood, composite, or metal. For stairs, we handle everything from stringer layout to tread depth and railing integration. You’ll get clean lines, tight fasteners, and a staircase that feels solid under every step.
Code-Compliant and Cleanly Crafted
Every stair and rail system we build is custom-fit to the deck and site. That means precise cuts, solid framing, and optional add-ons like lighting, trim caps, or two-tone finishes. Whether you want wood to match your deck or metal to contrast it, we’ll guide your choices and build it to last.
Railing height, spacing, and fasteners built to code
Custom stringers, landings, and stair risers included
Wood, composite, aluminum, or cable rail options

We don’t cut corners on the part of your deck you use most. Each stair system is carefully measured for rise and run, framed with treated lumber or composite-ready stringers, and fastened to code. We ensure every tread is even and every landing safe. Whether you need a single step-down or a multi-flight staircase with turn platforms, we’ll build stairs you can trust for decades.

Railings aren’t just functional—they’re one of the first things you see. We offer simple wood pickets, sleek cable rails, modern aluminum systems, and decorative post caps that complement your deck style. We also offer privacy panels, drink rails, and LED lighting for both safety and ambiance. Every component is sealed, finished, and built to withstand New Mexico’s dry sun and shifting temps.
Need to upgrade an old stairway or replace damaged railings? We retrofit existing decks with custom components that meet current code—and match your home. Our team removes old pieces cleanly, reinforces weak spots, and installs new railings or steps that feel like part of the original build. You’ll get fresh finishes, better safety, and a longer-lasting structure overall.

Don't worry, we can help!
A stair that feels shaky or a railing that wobbles isn’t just annoying—it’s unsafe. That’s why we take time with measurements, fastener spacing, and layout to deliver a system that’s tight, level, and solid. Whether it’s a full stair replacement or just new rails, we treat the small stuff like it matters—because it does.
