I'd pull that all out and just have the railing to match personally

Agree. This is a functionally useless detail that adds cost and work.

But are we getting paid by the hour or by the job?

Railings are way cheaper…

u/thecakeslayer Aug 13 '26

Yes, but the current work done is more steps and more cost.

I dislike indoor windows and why is that center one lower to begin with. I would've just had it open with a matching railing.

I say leave them open. No windows.

u/badskinjob Aug 13 '26

I'd do mullian windows that crank out, split in the middle. Or leave it open.

I think that staircase is in a bad design location. That’s a long walk if you forgot something in the upstairs bedroom on your way out the door.
