"John and his crew, consisting of two sons and his nephew did a fabulous job repairing several tiles on my rear patio and sealing it. They moved my heavy patio furniture off of it, put it on a tarp and covered it all up. Came back the next day and replaced everything as it was. They were all very nice, extremely courteous to my wife and myself. I highly recommend them and will certainly use them again."

"Victor was upfront about the timeline to complete the project. The project was done in stages as planned. The first crew came to jackhammer the old surface and tile and from the start I had immense confidence in them. They worked as a unified team, very organized and thorough. My project was difficult because there is no backyard access and all materiel had to come through the front door and house. The crews were very careful and diligent in protecting my house and floor as well as cleaning up the work area after each part of the project. Different crews were sent out to address the different parts of the project and each did an outstanding job. It seemed as if each crew member had worked together for a while as their approach to the job was focused and unified. They worked quickly and efficiently but were not rushed nor sloppy. Everyone left the job site neat and tidy especially after the demolition of the old pool surface ( jack hammering concrete and plaster creates lots of dust) and during the resurfacing. The crew cleaned up the whole patio including the chaise lounges and removed all the ambient concrete and plaster dust. The deck resurfacers gently tied back plants in the borders around the pool and taped off areas so as not to get paint anywhere but the deck. There was no fuss nor muss. Very, very professional crews as well as Victor and his office staff. I highly recommend Mercury Pool Plasterers for resurfacing and rebuilding your pool."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

As with patios, there are many types of deck choices to choose from to add personalization to your home. Some common deck options include:

  • Attached decks are anchored to the home and include simple ground-level options or multi-level structures with stairways and separate landings. 

  • Detached island decks are not attached to the home; they’re a freestanding structure in the yard. 

  • Wraparound decks connect the back of the house with at least one other side and often are built with railings for safety. 

  • Multi-level decks connect your deck through varying levels of elevation, featuring landings that are attached to stairs.

Before installing any materials under the deck for removing moisture, you should perform some prep work on the ground. Work the dirt under the deck to create a grade away from the home. A grade of at least six inches for every 10 feet works well. Do not leave a gap between the dirt and the home’s foundation where water could pool. Once you or a contractor regrades the dirt under the deck, you then can add materials over the top.

Pressure-treated decking may be worth it if you want a natural, insect- and rot-resistant decking material that will last for decades with proper maintenance. As such, it’s a much better option than untreated pine. Alternative wood decking materials like cedar and redwood tend to be less durable and more expensive. Some homeowners prefer composite decking, which is a low-maintenance alternative to wood but is also more costly.

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.

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.
