"I love these guys!  They are true professionals.  They worked through some of the hottest weather we had here this summer.  When additional damaged wood was found they showed me and asked what I wanted to do.  Imagine how very nice this was to be asked.  Of course we wanted all the rotted material removed/replaced.  We went over the initial bid however; we knew at the start this might happen.  Any additional repairs needed, when pointed out, were performed.  We are so very happy we found this company.  For any additional work needed on our home in the future we will contact this company.  I would without hesitation recommend this company to family and friends.

"My roof lost a large swath of shingles caused by severe wind storm. A friend, who had recently hired them, asked them to call me. They called the same day and, because rain was expected on Sunday they came the next day (Saturday) so I wouldn’t have any leaks. They are very pleasant to work with and the work was reasonably priced. I plan to have them do another project for me in the future and would strongly recommend them."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Pressure-treated decks last 15 to 20 years on average, but with proper maintenance, you could get 40 to 50 years of value from yours. Reseal your deck every one to two years, and replace old or rotted wood as soon as possible to avoid structural damage. Where you live plays a role in the lifespan of your deck. Intense sunlight, rainfall, wind, and hail can reduce the deck’s lifespan.

The best base materials for a ground-level or floating deck are typically gravel and crushed stone (also known as landscaping rocks). These options are inexpensive, provide excellent drainage, prevent weeds, and help minimize moisture buildup, which reduces shifting and rotting. For added stability and to evenly distribute the weight, you can use concrete deck blocks or pavers. While more expensive, concrete blocks and pavers offer a sturdier base than gravel or crushed stone alone.

It is possible to pressure wash your deck, but it’s usually best to leave the work to a professional for two main reasons. First, power washers are expensive, and you can avoid high upfront costs by hiring a deck washing pro instead. Second, you must be careful to use the correct setting to avoid damaging your deck material. You can only clean soft woods like pine with a wide spray and a low pressure; otherwise, the water will leave unpleasant marks on your deck. Hard woods, composite material, and metal can stand up to increasingly higher water pressures.

No, your deck will not rot under artificial grass as long as it is installed properly. When installed correctly, the artificial grass features a drainage system that prevents rotting. Simply laying artificial grass on top of the decking without proper installation will not lead to an effective drainage system that prevents rotting.

A deck that isn’t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don’t need deck stairs. Some don’t even require permits. Generally speaking, building a floating deck is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that’s connected to your home.
