The right railings and stairs do more than meet code—they define your deck’s style and how easy it is to use. At Alliance Deck Builders of West Virginia, we design and install stair systems and custom railings built for comfort, security, and looks. From horizontal cable rails to wide stairs with integrated lighting, everything we build is stable, compliant, and tailored to your space.
We offer railings in pressure-treated lumber, cedar, composite, aluminum, and stainless cable. Posts are secured to framing with hidden hardware, and stair systems are built with proper rise/run and treads that feel solid underfoot. Whether you’re going for rustic, modern, or low-maintenance, we’ll match your deck and build it to last.

Our stair builds feel stable—never shaky. We frame with pressure-treated stringers, properly sized risers and treads, and sturdy handrails that stand up to use and weather. From ground-level entries to second-story walkouts, we build stairs that are safe, comfortable, and cleanly finished. Need a landing, turn, or wrap-around? We design to fit your yard and traffic flow.

Your railing system can stand out or blend in. Choose composite for a low-maintenance finish, metal for a clean modern feel, or wood for warmth and texture. We offer horizontal cables, vertical balusters, privacy screens, or custom top caps. Every rail we install is fastened securely and designed to work with your deck’s layout.
Already have a deck but need better railings or a safer staircase? We retrofit rail systems onto existing structures or replace wobbly steps with stronger, code-compliant options. Our team inspects connections, reinforces framing, and ensures everything passes inspection—and feels good to walk on.

Built to Code: We meet West Virginia safety codes for spacing, height, and handrail support.
Retrofit or New Construction: We can replace worn stairs and railings or install fresh systems on new builds.
Style and Safety Combined: Choose modern, rustic, or traditional railing looks—all engineered for security.
Designed for Everyday Use: Our stairs and handrails feel solid, level, and safe under real-life foot traffic.
Low-Maintenance Options: Composite and aluminum railing systems resist weather, wear, and time.
Don't worry, we can help!
Our stair and railing services start with a site inspection to check for height, slope, and structure. Then we recommend materials that match your deck and usage needs. Everything is fastened using structural hardware and finished clean—with proper alignment, spacing, and grip. We also offer lighting and screen upgrades for safety and comfort.
