Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend Darby Renovations! They just replaced our stair railing and did a beautiful job. Very professional, responsive, and easy to work with from start to finish.Posted on Google Rob SantangeloTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brad and the crew did an awesome job creating our new entry stair rail system! We had been looking at options for the railings for quite some time on the internet. We called Darby Stairs along with a couple of other stair specialists to see if what we were envisioning was feasible. One company disregarded our thoughts, one quoted just what we wanted, but Brad heard what we wanted and explained the problems with our design and recommended a solution. When we received the price from Darby Stairs, we were shocked! Not only was his solution more involved than the others, but his price was $2,000 lower than his competition! We looked hard at the gallery of his work and saw no reason to be concerned that the workmanship would be second rate. We signed the contract with an expected lead time of about 3 weeks. A week later Brad called to see if we could be available for the installation a week sooner than promised. It worked for us, so they got started later that week. They arrived on time and went straight to work on the project. We had pre-selected the color, so they did the stain at their shop. They worked hard and efficiently throughout the day to complete the project in the promised 1 day schedule. We are extremely pleased with the work and service that Darby Stairs and Renovations provided, and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone who asks. A neighbor is also in need of new stair railing and stopped by to see if he liked what they did - he'll be calling them soon. Thanks Brad and guys for a job done very well.Posted on Google John NagelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience with Darby Stair renovation and would definitely recommend them to family and friends for any staircase renovation. After interviewing 4 other companies, Brad was easy to work with, listened to what I wanted and continued to communicate throughout the process. His attention to detail, specifically matching the stain to our existing wood floor, was excellent. His staff was friendly, professional and always showed up on time.Posted on Google Gretchen LauferTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

You will be so glad you did.Posted on Google Lori CockerhamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Quality and beautiful work. Brad guided us to making wise decisions on this much needed upgrade. I recommend them to friends and familyPosted on Google Theresa EdwardsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Darby Stair Renovations transformed our 20 year old builder quality stairs and railings. We had spoken to several floor contractors that offered to stain our existing rails, balusters and posts but wouldn't replace. Brad's crew handily replaced our existing oak railings, posts etc with maple and modified the stair case to be open one side. The communication was excellent, the team was timely and left no mess. We are very pleased with the work and finished product.Posted on Google Mark WisniewskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Incredibly responsive with high quality work. Outstanding client service philosophy. Recommend without reservation.Posted on Google Bill RectorTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a really good experience with Darby stair renovations. From initial quote request to follow up, the communication was great at every step. I told them my ideas and they showed me pictures of some past projects, and I was able to show them exactly what I wanted. The end result is exactly what I was looking for. The stair case is amazing looking now, I couldn't be happier with the finished product, the attention to detail and craftsmanship is apparent with what they deliver. Highly recommend Brad and his team!Posted on Google Michael J
