Safe, Stylish, and Built to Code

Custom Deck Railings & Stairs in Virginia

Don’t Let Access Be an Afterthought

We Design and Build Deck Railings and Stairs That Work

Deck stairs and railings are more than a way up or down—they’re essential for safety, code compliance, and how your deck feels. At Alliance Deck Builders of Virginia, we build custom stair runs, landings, and rail systems for new and existing decks. Whether you want a modern look or classic style, we deliver safe, beautiful access points that last.

Made for Comfort, Code, and Curb Appeal

Why Quality Stairs and Railings Matter

Stairs and rails are the most touched parts of your deck—they need to feel solid and function safely. We follow Virginia building code for height, spacing, and tread dimensions, while matching your deck’s style and materials. From pressure-treated wood to cable systems or composite kits, we help you choose the best option for your layout

Built for Daily Use and Long-Term Safety

Framed, Anchored, and Installed Right the First Time

Loose railings and sagging stairs aren’t just annoying—they’re dangerous. That’s why we build with reinforced framing, deep-set footings, and secure fasteners designed for weather and load. Every rail and tread is engineered to meet use demands and pass inspection. We don’t just attach kits—we build the structure behind them for real strength.

Style Options That Elevate the Entire Deck

Make Railings and Stairs a Design Feature

Rails and stairs offer a huge opportunity to enhance your deck’s look. We offer wood rails with routed tops, low-maintenance vinyl, sleek cable systems, or aluminum balusters in multiple colors. For stairs, choose open or closed risers, wrap-around landings, or integrated lighting. We design these features to flow with your home—not just bolt them on.

Replace, Upgrade, or Build from Scratch

Rail and Stair Services for Existing or New Decks

Whether you're updating old rails, replacing worn stairs, or starting a new build, we tailor our work to your needs. We offer partial upgrades or full replacements and ensure seamless connections to your existing structure.

Safety You Can Feel

Well-Built Rails and Stairs Make All the Difference

When you step onto a deck, the first thing you touch is the railing or stair tread. That first contact should feel solid, level, and built to last. Our installations focus on clean joins, consistent lines, and a firm feel underfoot. From framing to finish caps, we craft every detail to perform and impress—year after year.
