Wooden Deck Railings
Wooden deck railings are one of the most common forms of deck railings, mainly due to their simplicity and style. Wooden rails appeal to homeowners and builders alike because they provide a sense of serenity and tranquility that cannot be found in other materials.
Some of the key benefits of using a wood rail as opposed to other materials
Unlike popular belief, when wood that is properly treated and cared for and is used as a material for deck railing construction, wooden deck railings require little maintenance. Additionally, wood deck railings are aesthetically-pleasing and easy to obtain, all you need to do is contract a designer that is experienced and is able to work with you in an effort to build the right railing solution for your home.
Deck railings made out of harder types of wood are very durable, lasting for many years, providing a trust that your wooden deck railings will be enjoyed for the many deck seasons ahead.
Wood railings come in different delightful designs and are very versatile due to the custom options available for this material. The elegance of wood railings is unlike any other material.
Care of Wood for Railings
As highlighted above, wood that is properly treated is the fundamental ingredient for a long-lasting rail. To get the best out of wood railings, you’ll also need to protect the wood rail from water.
Some other measures that you can take to ensure that your wood rails remain in perfect shape include: routine cleaning and maintenance, periodic polishing and waxing, and application of waterproof paint (especially for outdoor railings that are exposed to different extreme conditions).

"Our glass house in the sky" These fellows managed to build our sun room onto a second floor balcony straight up from the outside...The project was finished on time and on budget, despite all the wet weather. Bravo, Mountain View Sun Decks!
Hi Steven, Happy Friday!!!! Just wanted to say hi and that I love my deck. The guys finished up Wednesday evening. I haven't had time to really enjoy my deck yet but hopefully this weekend I will. Thanks again for all your patience and help with getting this completed and to what I was looking for. I have all of July and August to enjoy my deck now and hopefully September. Have a wonderful weekend. April
Rebuilt the deck at the back of the house;because of cost we kept the same footprint as the previous deck;workmanship was excellent, the deck flooring is exceptional, almost like the extension of the inside flooring, loved the enclosed stairwell and the changes to the railing; very clean exit after job was complete, no delays in getting the work done;very pleased; in hindsight we should have spent the extra money for a tiered deck that we had in mind.
Our experience with the company and its employees, for the most part, has been excellent. The deck was enlarged and updated with dura deck vinyl covering, aluminium powder coated rails and lightly tinted glass over ten years ago, and it still looks great. Additional upgraded railings, opaque glass and a gate were later added. From the initial meeting with the sales representative to the completion of the project, the costs were on budget and on time. The quality of workmanship performed and professionalism of their employees can be considered first rate. The best part of having a Mountain View Sun Deck is not having to do any maintenance, just sit back and enjoy.
We had our old deck replaced. Complete removal and new installation. The work was performed during the winter and completed on time and budget to our complete satisfaction.
They came and put down my deck in record time. Looks beautiful. It was a difficult job because of a previous contractor had failed. They turned things around and left us very happy.
I hired Ewald and his team to replace a old wrought iron circular staircase off my desk with a traditional set of stairs in all aluminum. They were excellent to work with and I'd do business with them again anytime. Very professional, humble, creative, extremely detail orientated and excellent customer service from everyone. Price was fair and nothing negative to suggest about the product or service. Highly recommended!
Great staff, great owner, great service....could not be happier with my custom deck they built for me in 2015 and the issues they caught and fixed during the build. A great company and team....I would highly recommend. No corners cut....just quality product and service. Rod C.
Mountain View Sundecks installed an exterior staircase from out upper deck to the ground on our house. We were very pleased with this install. They were very responsive, met our schedule and came in at the price they quoted. I highly recommend them.
