Review repeated damage
Multiple failing posts or broadly deteriorated rails may support a wider scope than one damaged section. Compare the condition rather than selecting by length alone.
Confirm property authority
The owner establishes the boundary and authorization to work. AWC does not settle surveys, ownership disputes or neighbor cost-sharing.
Compare the complete work
Removal, disposal, post access, materials and surrounding restoration should be part of the written comparison. A low panel-only number may exclude important work.
Photos help start the review. Access, concealed conditions and required professional review can change the construction scope.
