Perfectly finished home? Balustrade installation might ruin it well!
So, let’s find out what is the ideal time to install balustrade.
1. If the plan is to have carpet as the finishedfloor, it is recommended to get the balustrading in place first because cuttingaround for the posts or spigots without tearing up the delicate flooring islike snowball’s chance in hell , eventually, you are going to be left with ashredded carpet and a hole in the pocket. So, install the balustrade first, andyou won’t have to choose between a beautiful floor and a beautifulrailing—because you’ll have both.
2. Tiles and timber flooring? They're toughcookies. But even tough cookies can crumble if not handled right. While it’stempting to install your balustrade first, doing so can leave your flooringcrew with the impossible task of cutting tiles or timber around posts perfectly.So, let’s not make things harder than they need to be—install the balustradesecond, and let your flooring crew work their magic.
3. Picture this. You are carrying something really heavyup a staircase, let’s say a 50kg heavy glass panel - tight corners, sweaty palms,every turn feeling like a disaster to happen. Now, what are the odds of notscrapping the paint? Almost negligible. That is why, never ever paint beforethe balustrade goes in.
4. It is not like balustrade is a superhero immuneto any sort of damage caused by something like an accidental hammer swing. So,get all the heavy—duty stuff done first unless you want your balustrade to be acasualty of construction chaos.
All in all, plan ahead. Do all the heavy lifting first andlet the balustrade be one of the final touches to your dream space.
