I was looking for a local glass rail company after having my eyes set on going with virerail. I am very happy I came across Michael and modern stair. They did everything from start to finish! Under budget and over expectations. I really love the job they did and would highly recommend.

Michael and his team did an amazing job with our railings. They look incredible! The team was professional, on time and very accommodating. Highly recommend!
Modern Stair Railings setup railings on my front steps to assist my disabled wife go up and down the steps. They installed the railings quickly and expertly, making sure that they would be in the correct position for my wife.
Michael and his team were professional and completed a custom handrail install promptly and cleanly. We will be using Modern Stair Railing again!
Thank you
Amazing work. Looks great.!
My railings are beautiful. Michael worked with me on an expedited basis and came out on a Sunday because my insurance co wanted the rails installed ASAP. He was prompt, texted me when he was 5 minutes out, and cleanup was wonderful. I cannot recommend them more highly and cannot thank them enough.
Very professional work and an amazing outcome. We are enjoying our view way more now.
Very professional and precise workmanship!
