Seasonal tip for Edmonton

Outdoor railing installs are easiest from spring to fall. Road salt and freeze-thaw cycles are hard on metal, so spring is a good time to check railings and gates for rust.

Anything to tell a metalworker visiting Downtown?

Downtown condo buildings usually need providers to sign in, book the service elevator and use paid or loading-zone parking, so share your building's rules. You can add notes like this to the description when you send your request.

The building code sets minimum heights for guards and handrails, depending on how high the deck or stair is. The metalworker who accepts your request can confirm what applies.
