What is Composite or PVC Deck Railing?

PVC is easy to define. It is polyvinyl chloride, a very common type of plastic commonly known as vinyl. It is a very hard, durable plastic that is easily colored and textured to create a wide range of appearances.

Composite deck railing is made of a blend of PVC (polyvinyl chloride), a type of plastic, and fibers, most often, recycled wood fibers. Pigment is added, and the material is heated/melted and then extruded into planks of various widths and lengths. They are textured to create an appearance that closely mimics genuine wood – but without the warping, cracking and rot wood is susceptible to.

Composite is a strong, stable, and resilient material. It is tough but attractive, low-maintenance, available in many styles and colors, and is very customizable. It’s also easy to run wiring for lighting with composite deck railing and most manufacturers provide excellent warranties.

Composite / PVC Deck Railing Installation & Labor

Most Professional deck installers charge between $25 and $45 per linear foot to install composite deck railing.

The deck job includes:

• Removing old railings
• Installing, leveling, securing posts, post skirts, post covers, and foot blocks
• Measure top and bottom rails, cut if necessary, place baluster spacers and insert balusters
• Attach complete panels to posts with brackets, level and secure rails
• Install gates and deck stair railing
• Add wiring, if lighting will be included, add post caps and accessory lighting

Deck Labor costs to install composite deck railing depend these factors:

• Size of Deck: Larger decks will require more labor, but the cost per linear foot will commonly decrease as the deck size increases.
• Complexity of the Deck: Square or rectangular decks have fewer corners and require less time to complete where L-shaped, curved, or multi-sided, and multi-leveled decks will take longer to complete and cost more.
• What you are Installing: Pre-made panels with rails and balusters already attached will take less time than installing individual components. The amount of deck stair railing and number of gates included will also increase labor costs.
• Who you Hire: If you DIY, your costs will include any tools needed to do the job – usually around $500. When hiring a deck pro, look for a capable handyman as those services are generally less than contractors. Just make sure the installer has experience with the brand and style of deck railing you purchase.
• Where you Live: Cost of living affects all prices including deck railing installation.
• Permit Cost: Most decks that require a railing will also require an inspection to ensure the railing is securely installed and safe. Permits vary by city/county and are often priced by the size of the deck. The larger the deck, the more railing included, the longer the inspection will take.

DIY vs Deck Railing Installer

Most homeowners don’t have the tools, like a compound miter saw and saw horses, readily available to install composite deck railing. It can be difficult to cut rails, place and attach posts, and make the railing level and secure. If this isn’t accomplished, the railing might not pass inspection.

Also, composite railing will expand and contract with temperature changes and must be installed with allowance for this.

A homeowner with good experience can complete the job with professional-looking results, but hiring an experienced contractor might make the most sense for composite deck railing.

Composite Deck Railing FAQs

Below are commonly asked questions about Composite / PVC deck railing and their deck railing installation.

Q. Is composite deck railing strong?

A. Yes, it is strong and safe. It can easily support the weight of adults leaning against it.

Q. Should I purchase individual rail components or pre-fab panels or kits?

A. Purchasing pre-fab panels or kits will save you money, both in materials and installation, making them a good choice, especially if you’re on a budget. Pre-assembled panels or kits are easier to install and installation goes quicker, so if you can find a style and color that you like, go this route.

Q. Can I put my grill next to the deck railing?

A. No, because composite or PVC is a type of plastic, it can be damaged by very high heat. An outdoor grill should be kept at least 5 feet from the deck railing.

Use the Overview Cable Deck Railing Price Table at the top of the page to narrow what you can expect your costs will be based on cost factors.

Cable Deck Railing Installation & Labor

Most deck installers charge $15 to $30 per linear foot to install cable deck railing.

The deck railing installation entails:

• Installing and securing starter, line/middle, corner and end posts (or removing old rails such as wood or composite)
• If using existing wood posts, drilling holes for the cable
• Running cable through holes in the posts – and installing ballast posts along the line where required
• Installing cable seats in end posts
• Tensioning the cable
• Installing top rails, caps and accessory lights

The cost of labor to install cable deck railing depends on these factors:

• Size of the Deck: Larger decks take more labor, of course, but it is common for the price per linear foot to go down as the size of the deck increases.
• Complexity of the Deck: Square and other rectangular decks have fewer corners and offer easier installation than L-shaped, six-sided and other shaped decks.
• Who you Hire: If you DIY, then your deck costs will include any tools required to get the job done – usually around $500. When hiring a pro, handyman services usually charge less than deck contractors. But be sure that the installer is experienced with the brand and style of cable deck railing you purchase.
• Where you Live: Cost of living affects all prices including deck railing installation.
• Permit Cost: Most decks that require a deck railing also require an inspection to ensure the rail is securely installed for safety. Permits vary by city/county and often are priced by the size of the deck. The bigger the deck, the more railing is needed and the longer it takes to inspect it.

DIY vs Deck Railing Installer

Most homeowners don’t have the tools like cable tighteners and tension gauges that it takes to successfully complete a cable deck railing installation. If you don’t get the cables tight, they’ll droop, which affects the appearance. And they likely won’t pass inspection.

While the tools are available and experienced homeowners can complete the job with professional-looking results, hiring an experienced pro makes the best sense for this deck railing project.

Cable Deck Railing FAQ

Below are commonly asked questions about cable deck railing and their deck railing installation.

Q. What difference does panel length make?

A. Prefab panels cost less per linear foot the longer they are. A product that costs $550 for a 6-foot panel, or about $92 per linear foot, might cost $680 for an 8-foot panel, or about $85 per linear foot.

Q. What’s better, galvanized steel or stainless steel cable?

A. It depends on your budget and the look you want. Galvanized is darker to begin with, and within 10-15 years might show signs of corrosion.

That’s why most cable is stainless steel. It costs close to double, but it won’t corrode and will keep its shiny good looks indefinitely.

Q. Are cable deck railings safe for children and pets?

A. Yes. When properly installed and as tight as they should be, cable provides a very safe railing for anyone.

Q. What are the top brands of cable deck railing?

A. Skyline, Feeney, KeyLink, TimberTech, Atlantis RailEasy, AGS Stainless and Fortress are among the highest rated cable deck railing manufacturers.
