"I had several small projects to complete, including replacement/installation of a bathroom vent fan, replacement of a dryer vent hose and minor deck and fence repairs. Micah Douglas was responsive, knowledgeable and friendly. I am very happy with the quality of the work done and would hire him again."

"Everyone was super nice! My old porch needed replaced! They were friendly and on time! I didn't feel the need to stand by and watch them take apart my old porch and put the new one up! Everything was done in a timely manner and they cleaned everything up! Amazing I will hire again for my next project!"

"Although my project was somewhat unusual, Mr. Arnold arrived promptly and provided an estimate. Due to the nature of the project the final design required a good deal of revision, but Mr. Arnold was very responsive and I valued his input. When we had a design that fit my property he executed the design well... and quickly. In fact the decks were built much sturdier than I expected. The decks that hold the solar collectors, the storage areas underneath, and the inner and outer fences framing them look extremely professional. After the treated wood had seasoned, Mr. Arnold did an excellent job of painting them. The decks look much better than I expected. I am extremely pleased with the work! I am looking forward to hiring Mr. Arnold to build more decks next Spring."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

Whether composite decking is better than wood depends on your priorities, especially regarding budget and maintenance. Composite decking offers superior longevity (30 to 50 years) and durability, and it is low-maintenance, requiring no sanding, staining, or sealing. In contrast, wood decks typically last 10 to 30 years and need refinishing every few years. While the upfront cost of composite is higher than wood, the reduced maintenance can lead to long-term savings. If a lower initial cost is the primary factor, wood is the more affordable choice.

Decks are generally more expensive to build because they require elevating and railings. The difference between decks and patios is that decks are elevated, while patios are usually on the ground level. Plus, decks are usually made of wood and need more maintenance than most patios. However, decks and patios serve the same purpose, providing outdoor space for you to enjoy.

In most cases, there should be a small gap between the house and the deck, usually no more than ½ to ¾ of an inch. This space allows water and moisture to flow through instead of pooling against the side of your house. It also lets flashing protect your siding from runoff, which is one of the most common issues with decks.

You can use a few different tactics to prevent your deck gate from sagging. Aside from using strong, rot-resistant woods, introducing a diagonal element—such as a tension rod or solid piece of wood to act as a brace—across the gate will offer better support. You can also use rigid joists to prevent the gate from sagging.
