Add Class To Your Home With Wooden Porch Railings

Explains how wood is the perfect choice for porch railings. The different styles of wood railings. How to take care of wood railings.

Wooden porch railings add character and class to your home's looks. Wooden porch railings add elegance to contemporary and victorian homes, as well as classic and traditional style homes. The look of traditional railings is best achieved by rails
crafted from wood, rather than newer materials such as metal. There are many benefits to wooden porch railings besides their classic good looks, however. Designers like to work with wooden porch railings because of the range of freedom they can have in the design. Because of the popularity of wooden porch railings, there is a wide range of components available in wood, at very reasonable prices. The top and bottom rails, the balusters, the posts and all of the other accessories are available in wood of many different styles. These wooden parts are easy to customize to the homeowner's taste, and, once installed, are easy to maintain. Wooden railings are extremely durable while still blending beautifully with the exterior of most homes. Interior wooden trim and flooring also blend nicely with wooden porch railings; this lends a
lovely cohesion to a home.

Wooden balusters can be cut into an infinite variety of shapes: square, flat, or round. No wonder wooden porch railings are so popular. There are few other materials that offer the beauty and variety of wood at such a reasonable price. Woodbis an abundant commodity, and so the price of wood is still relatively low. Wood can be cut, sawed and carved into so many different shapes and designs and wood railings are very easy and quick to install. Wooden railings can be weatherproofed with the proper material, making them very durable over time. Wrought iron railings are subject to peeling and corrosion durible if they are not painted frequently.

People frequently choose wood railings over other materials because theycan be customized by hand crafting to create a unique look for their home. Lovely custom made railings are easily installed with nails or wood screws. The accessories and
furniture people choose for their porches are set off much better with wooden porch railings. Wicker chairs, porch swings, wooden furniture and rocking chairs all look even pretty against the backdrop of a lovely wood railing. Hanging plants and
potted trees also look prettier on a porch with wooden railings.

There are many other materials are available for porch railings. These include stone, concrete, brick or metal. You can even combine materials such as wood and metal. But for character and class, nothing beats wood. It is the material one always
associates with a classic, traditional style. Add to this feature the fact that wood railings are inexpensive and easy to install, you have a perfect fit with wooden railings.

Wooden swingset on grass versus wood chips?

We bought my son (2) a wooden swing/play set. I have seen these set up on both grass and also wood chips. I would like opinions on which is preferable and why. Also if you think wood chips are the way to go, do you have information on what I need to do to make a wood chip area (I have a lawn) and also is it uncomfortable for bare feet? With grass, would I need to treat the wood with something special since sprinklers would be hitting it every day (the wood has been 'stained' already)? Thanks everyone!

If you decide to build it on the lawn here are a few possitive and negative's.

(POS)lawn will help to cushion a fall if it happens.

(NEG)Lawn will also leave a green color on the shoes and sandals/ flip flops that can be transfered into the carpet in the home.

(NEG)The lawn will take a beating under the swings set that may make it hard to maintain in a healthy green status. because of all of the compaction by the kids playing arounsd the swing set.

(pos)Lawn will cool down the area tempreture wise so that it seems alot cooler for the kids to play

(NEG) it will make it more difficult to mow the grass with the swing set in the way. when you weed whip the grass around the wooden supports of the swing set, the whip will eventually dig into the wood supports, causing them to suffer a little damage every season.

I come from a background of 30 years in the commercial and residential landscape industry just to qualify my answer here.

Bark positive and negatives:

(POS)Using the correct size of bark 1/2" to 3/4" in size would be the correct size to install under a wooden swing set.If you go this way I would suggest that you dig out at least 6" to 10"of soil to replace with at least 10"" of bark to aid in buffeting any chance of the kids falling off of the swings or from the top of the swing set. don't worry at allabout any bugs coming into the bark as there are far more bugs in lawn that in bark play grounds, besides we all have ants in bark and grass depending on where you live.

(NEG) bark does get thrown out of place when in a play ground area, and though it is not a lot of work to maintain it , many folks seem to be on the lazy side with the hustle and bustle of todays living.

If you want to take up parts of your lawn to make a bark area for the swing set, it is rather easy.

First cap off and lawn spray heads in the proposed area, but make sure to not take away a head that will still be active in maintaing the lawn. This can be acomplished ez by just changing out a nozzel, for instance if your lawn head has a full (360 degree nozzel) by a half nozzel or a quarter nozzel. Better yet rain birs suppliers have a universal nozzel for about a $1.89 that can be a full nozzel or any other spray pattern that you will need. check with your local casa depot or what ever and they can show you these nozzels and how to work them.

You have to be careful when you excavate for the new bark area so that you don;t hit a bunch of pvc lines in the process.(hopefully you installed the irr. sustem and you remember where they are more or less. If you think that a mail line runs through the area you want to excavate, be sure to shut the water off so that if you brake it you won't have a mud hole. Always check out the sytem before you cover up any pipes or piping so that you don;t have to remove the bark and try a repair then.

As a rule of thumb you should have a clear area of at least 5' on every side of the play set so that the kids don't end up falling onto a rose bush or some hard object.

You can place a wooden border around the bark play area to help control the bark from being kicked around. Use 2x4 pressure treated wood for this aplication because it will last alot longer being buried in the soil.

Well I hope this helps out with your decision, if you need more help with any questions add to your question and I will respond.

Take care
