"For the most part my experience was good. There were two things that I wasn’t too happy about. One they left the hose running they didn’t shut the water off and I had quite a bit of water standing there by the house and second when I got home today and went to unload stuff out of the trunkI looked down and there were probably 8 to 10 finish nails laying there on the floor in the garage. I hope when I go out tomorrow I do not have a flat tire."

"Julian and his awesome team did an extraordinary job fixing my deck and building a retention wall that also required leveling the ground. My composite deck had been incorrectly installed, and Raul was able to devise a system to straighten warped boards and hide holes where nails had been. The deck now looks fantastic - and is solid. I had 3 other quotes that were much higher and didn't have a clear solution. (Raul is an exceptional problem-solver.) Excellent customer service, on-time, and went the extra mile. Raul even powerwashed our deck and driveway as a final touch. Julian will be our go-to for all future home improvements."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor 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 crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

The best and fastest way to remove paint from a deck often involves combining a chemical stripper with a pressure washer. Gel-based paint strippers are highly recommended because their thick consistency makes them less messy and easier to apply than liquid strippers. After applying the stripper to loosen the paint, you can use a pressure washer to efficiently wash away the residue. When using a pressure washer for this task, it's important to use a low pressure (under 1000 PSI) to avoid forcing too much moisture into the wood, which could lead to mildew or rot.

A wood deck requires annual cleaning and regular inspections for loose or broken boards, nails, and screws. It should be refinished by applying a stain or sealer every two to three years to protect the wood from water damage, rot, mildew, and sun fading. The exact frequency can depend on the climate and the deck's exposure to sun and moisture. If your deck is painted, it will need repainting approximately every 10 years. Signs that your deck needs refinishing include faded, splintering, or warping boards.

Typically, most residential wooden decks are designed to support approximately 40 pounds per square foot, including the deck’s weight and any items placed on it. While this is fine for typical use, it is usually not enough to hold the weight of a hot tub filled with water and people. To safely support a hot tub, your wood deck will likely require reinforcement. Therefore, it’s best to have a contractor or a structural engineer assess it before hot tub installation.

Local building codes don’t specify the number of steps a deck can have before a railing is required, mainly because stair height varies widely. Most areas require decks 30 inches or higher to have a railing. While not exact, that roughly equates to four to seven steps.
