Method.dlg — how the repair runs

Step one — measure

We check every newel pocket by hand.

Play, rust, and stone cracks get written down.

Step two — strip

Old cement and crumbled lead come out.

The pocket is dried before any pour.

Step three — set

Molten lead is poured, then caulked tight.

Bent spindles are heated and pulled true.

Step four — close out

Iron is scaled, primed, and painted.

Leave the stoop clear while the rail cures.
