"Johnathan did an excellent job at explaining how the project was going to be done, ensuring the fence would look as recommended. His and Sean’s work turned out great, and they were able to complete a large job (215 ft) quickly even with dealing with massive tree roots. Couldn’t have expected a better result, and will be hiring again shortly for deck and stair work."

"Jason Davis called me an came on time to give estimate on rebuilding my Deck. He was very professional and pricing was better than anyone else that I spoke with. Alot of the other's on the list never even returned my calls. After agreeing to the price and payment, Jason showed up as promised and performed the work. He did an excellent job,he even made alot of improvements that I never even asked for and the result was beautiful. Today I have a deck that will last for a long time and me an my children will really enjoy. I would give this company the highest rate possible and would definitely use them again iin the future."

"Marvin replaced and removed flooring and railing of wooden deck that was rotting that is 14 feet from ground. New structure is much more secure. There were some delays because of weather. Very professional and reasonable. Would highly recommend M. O. Holt !"

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

Composite decking might cost more upfront, but it delivers value in terms of durability. Unlike wood, composite material resists common deck problems such as rotting, fading, warping, and all the other things you don’t want a deck to do. The extra processes lead to a higher price tag, but you’ll save big in maintenance costs down the road.

When building a deck, #2 grade lumber is a go-to for several reasons. It’s strong, budget-friendly, and works well for most framing and decking needs. But upgrading to #1 or Appearance Grade can give your deck that extra visual edge if you're after a cleaner, more polished look for high-visibility spots.

In general, you need a footing at each corner of your deck, and within 8 feet of each other. So, how many you need depends on the size and shape of your deck, plus any local building codes. It also depends on factors like the load capacity of your soil and the weight of your deck. You can find a footing calculator online or contact a pro for support.

Both deck footings and deck posts help prop up your deck. However, footings are the bottommost parts of a deck that touch the ground. They’re usually made of concrete. Posts are pieces of wood that attach to the top of the footings with brackets. They run upwards and connect to the underside of your deck to support its weight.

Yes, you can build a deck over your outdoor HVAC unit, but you need to leave at least 5 feet of vertical clearance above the unit. If you don’t want your deck to be that high off the ground, you could build a floating deck in another part of your yard—again, as long as you leave at least 4 feet of horizontal space between the deck and your AC unit.
