"Very reasonably priced, good communicated well, arrived in a timely manner. They replaced a portion of my deck. Showed me the materials they would be using ahead of time, showed up on time and did the work well in 1 day. Gave some recommendations about things to watch out for with my deck and made recommendations for maintenance. Cleaned up after themselves. Seemed knowledgeable and friendly. Would recommend and would hire again"

"Jason did an amazing job painting my entire house! It looks absolutely incredible. He got the exact colors I wanted for every room, paid great attention to detail, and didn?t get a single drop of paint on my floors. He was professional, did an excellent job, and I couldn?t be happier with how everything turned out. I would definitely hire him again and will be recommending him to everyone I know. I highly recommend Jason for any painting job! ?????"

"My project was so much more than â siding replacement/repairâ . I have a â wall of windowâ that had to be removed, wood repaired, windows re-installed, siding replaced and painted. WHOA! Mr. Muncey was very quick to respond to my inquiry via Home Advisors, he came out inspected the project within a few days, explained why it was in such bad shape and what he could do to fix it. He was straightforward, provided a very reasonable quote (I had 6 other quotes to compare) and he stayed within the budget/cost he presented. Once the decision was made to accept his services, he and his crew got the job started as quickly as feasible and completed within a reasonable time (weather was not kind to us). He responded to my questions and answered with knowledge and consideration. I advised my daughter to call him when her familyâ s home got roof damage from the recent storms in Gardendale/ Mt.Olive- now that says A LOT!"

"They came and the work was done in a timely manner. However, there were some areas that needed them to return to repair appropriately. They promised to come back to make it right, but never returned and stopped answering my calls. Had they come back to make those minor repairs, I could have easily given them 5 stars, but because of the poor customer service, they feel short."

Deck Repair FAQs, answered by experts

Whether you need a permit depends on the deck design and local regulations. Most areas mandate a building permit if the deck is over a specific height or if it's attached to a pre-existing structure. Shorter, freestanding decks may not require a permit, but you should check with local zoning ordinances and your homeowners association for specifics.

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Building a deck isn't too hard if you’re handy with carpentry, have the necessary tools, and are willing to put effort into it. However, other factors, such as plans, permits, and design, can be hard if you don’t have experience in those areas.

Note: You’ll need another person to help you build the deck (especially for framing and setting the beams). Building a deck yourself will be very difficult if you don’t have an extra set of hands to help.

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.

It's okay to walk on a newly painted deck after about four to six hours as long as the weather has been dry. Be sure to wait at least 24 hours before you place any outdoor furniture or grills on a freshly painted deck, though.
