    I had 2 missing balusters on the 4th floor staircase in my building. I ordered new stairway balusters from Second Generation Stairs to replace those 2 missing ballusters. They removed 2 other balusters from the existing staircase to use as a model. I have called repeatedly and they promise to come, but it has been many months and they haven't delivered the new balusters. They promise to come by in a few days but never show. I asked them to return the ones they took, but they haven't done that either. The staircase is more dangerous with the balusters missing.

    We spoke to **************************** regarding 2 balusters in question. Per our conversation Second Generation will return  the 2 balusters  in question by *********.

    ******************* told us once she receives balusters she would withdraw complaint.

     

    Thank you,

    Second Generation Wood Stairs.
