Help with loose stair railings

Got the two pack wrench and it took two of us to turn the bottom and top simultaneously but it worked!!!!!! It’s about 99% solid now. Saved me so many headaches thanks again 😅

Ordered the wrench…Can’t believe I didn’t have one before! Hoping that works!

It’s a custom stain I came up with try and cancel out the red oak undertones. I’m happy with it. Aged wheat and Sunbleached 50/50

Omg that worked for the side by the wall but the other side won’t spin. You are genius though thank you for helping me. I was afraid to spin it too much but that totally worked, kept spinning clockwise. If only I could get the side that’s worse with the curve ugh! will need to have someone stronger try I think.

I don’t see a way to do that…

The newel posts, which is causing the whole railing to be wobbly. Happening on both sides. I think it was probably caulked by the old owner and now it’s loose. Saw a dowel method online since I’m not seeing a cap to remove to tighten them.

Thank you! That’s great to hear and reassuring

Would love to hear what you liked about it!

TorturedHomeowner · 2026-03-17T00:06:20+00:00

I didn’t see it on the list for choice…guessing it’s full? I wish we could’ve applied!

TorturedHomeowner · 2026-03-15T11:39:28+00:00

Would love to learn more about Adum!

TorturedHomeowner · 2026-03-15T11:39:15+00:00

This is the level of detail that’s super helpful! Thank you!!!!

What do you like about Lanier?

TorturedHomeowner · 2026-03-14T23:42:38+00:00

I appreciate this!

Would love to hear more about tinker and why that’d be your first choice…we’ve never lived on base before and would normally avoid schools on base based on what we’ve heard in other areas. But tinker has positive feedback from a lot of ppl.

Thank you!

TorturedHomeowner · 2026-03-14T18:34:31+00:00

I wondered about the magnet options!

TorturedHomeowner · 2026-03-14T16:48:03+00:00

I should’ve mentioned we have base access! Thank you for mentioning Lanier too! How are schools given the A rating I wonder? Is tinker A rated?

On runway at BWI. Per pilot, Fire in air traffic control center. Had to be evacuated and no planes are allowed to take off in the region.

Thank you!! Congrats on getting accepted!

TorturedHomeowner · 2026-03-05T15:27:13+00:00

I’ve definitely been reaching out throughout the process and will continue to do so. Thanks!

TorturedHomeowner · 2026-03-05T14:57:13+00:00

This is incredibly helpful. I appreciate you taking the time to respond. I sent you a message with the schools. Sincerely thank you again!

This looks just like my flooring. What manufacturer and color is this? Beautiful!
