"I was referred to JT by a neighbor who has worked with him for over 15 years, and I’m glad I took the recommendation. His pricing is fair, he’s quick to respond to questions, and he kept me fully informed throughout the entire process—from progress updates to materials being used. JT and his crew replaced an old, rotting deck with Trex, rebuilt one fence, and repaired another that didn’t require a full replacement. Most importantly, his crew shows up on time and completes the work efficiently—and does it well. That kind of reliability is hard to find. I’ll definitely be using JT again for future projects. Highly recommend!"

"Fast, fair price, flexible. By flexible, I mean I asked him to build a couple of gates for the top level of our deck that would be toddler proof. He came up with really great solutions with hidden locks that even the craftiest of toddlers would not be able to figure out. I’m very happy with the work done and look forward to working with him again soon"

"Mr. Steiner repaired the area around my porch exit and installed a new door. It was not an easy task as my house is old and settled quite a bit. His work was flawless. He responded quickly did great work. He is honest, hard working and talented."

"Ronaldo did a good job. I hired him to assist me with repairing the roof on my deck, pressure washing the whole house and painting the deck. He was very polite and knowledgeable about what I needed help with."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Your deck may pop, and your neighbor’s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it’s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

It depends on the type of wood. The average cost to build a deck out of pressure-treated lumber is $15 to $25 per square foot, but more affordable varieties such as bamboo and cedar cost less at around $3 to $10 per square foot. However, when comparing the cost of vinyl decking versus wood decking, it’s important to also consider ongoing maintenance costs. For example, most woods require regular sealing to keep them protected against weather and rot.

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.

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.
