Scott McLaren
We’ve had our railings for about 5 months. We are happy with them. The railings we selected turned out very nice. Jeff helped guide us on which ones to select. The installers were very friendly and helpful.
Tamara Wheeler
We are very happy with our back patio railing. It is sturdy and fits our outside decor well! Communication was great. JJ was very informative during the design process and did a great job with the install.
Tonni Puhan
Everything about my experience with KB Custom Railing exceeded my expectations. Jeff was quick to respond to my inquiry, came to my house and make an experienced recommendation, and provided a fair quote. The guys who did the install were major pros, took their time, and did it right. And all ahead of schedule. I’m very pleased
Aaron Riggs
The folks at KB Custom Railing are simply fantastic! They recently installed a beautiful metal railing in our home and we couldn’t be happier with the result! Every aspect of the project went smoothly, from the initial contact to the installation. The communication was excellent throughout the project, and it was completed ahead of schedule.

They say that eyebrows have the power to completely change the look of your face. Then it should be said that railings are the eyebrows of your house. Jeff and his team completely changed the look of our house, bringing a 20th century home into the 21st. We love that the continuity in our interior and exterior railing since our front door is clear glass.
Jenny Harris
We couldn’t be happier with KB Custom Railing. They replaced old (rotting) wooden railing on our front stairs and rear multi-level decking with aluminum railing. The quality is rock solid and it looks gorgeous.
Heather Wade
We had Infinity Glass Railing installed on our deck to maximize the view. A well-made product at a very affordable price point. Installation went smoothly and adjustments made without issue. We would use Jeff and his team again.
Ian Draycott
Jeff was the first to bid on our railing project. He showed up with railing samples. He listened to our design objectives and offered options without ‘selling hard’. After interviewing several others, he was the clear choice.
