We make balusters out of wood.  It can be any kind of wood you choose, rot resistant or inexpensive.  Most of our balusters are for historical renovations or replacement antique balusters caused by storm damage or damage by vermin or age.  We make balusters primarily for  porch and outside use.  They can be 1890's balusters, 1920's balusters or from any time period. Most of the balusters that we make are unfinished wood as the builders, renovators, or homeowners prefer to finish them on site.  However they can be primed and painted in any color if desired.  People have sent in pictures of what they wanted and we have made custom made balusters from the pictures.
