Whatever material you choose, every fastener and anchor point we use is selected to hold up through repeated Ottawa freeze-thaw cycles, not just a single mild season.
Because a custom railing can be built in wood, aluminum, wrought iron, glass or cable, price depends mainly on which material you choose. Ottawa-area rates run from roughly $60 per linear foot for pressure-treated wood up to $200 or more for frameless glass or decorative ironwork, with your exact number confirmed on the free on-site visit.
Powder-coated aluminum posts and pickets that resist Ottawa's freeze-thaw cycles without rusting or needing repainting.
Framed and frameless tempered-glass panels for an unobstructed view on decks, balconies and interior landings.
Welded custom metalwork for a heavier, traditional look, finished with a rust-inhibiting powder coat.
Pressure-treated or cedar railings matched to an existing deck or staircase, sanded and finished on site.

Posts are anchored, panels or pickets are set to the code-required 100 mm sphere spacing, and every joint is checked.
We test every section for rigidity and walk the finished railing with you before we call the job done.
