"I had 4 estimates for my project and Brushworks was the best price. Kevin was the lead paimter for my project and he was very responsive to my needs. We discussed all aspects of the work and he was easy to work with. He was dedicated to making sure that I was totally satisfied with the finished product. I would definitely use them again and have already recommended them to my friends."

"Jeremy, Julius, Dan and the whole Paneless team are awesome! They provided a very detailed estimate regarding the house prep, type of paint, # of coats and timing of getting the job done. They also have an in-house carpenter to help with the often times needed minor repairs on decks and fascia board before painting to make sure the structure is sound before working on the cosmetic. They were all very respectful and did a good job of daily clean-up through all the stages of work. I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting quality work on a big job and getting it done right the first time. This was a big job on a beach house with very tall two story decks, railings and sides that required 30ft ladders and a lot of prep work on wood and metal beams and flashing. Jeremy was great in keeping the whole crew on time and within budget."

"Came and did an estimate for our deck railing.  Scheduled a date, but the day before it looked like rain, so he initiated a change of date, then did the job then.  No glitches, no problems.  Seems professional and we plan to use him again."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, and in some cases, frozen ground may improve the digging process for footings due to sturdier conditions. It’s easier than working in muddy conditions, which are more common in the spring. Contractors may use machinery that makes this step a breeze, so harder ground shouldn’t affect the building process.

Deck boards should be spaced no more than three-eighths of an inch apart. This is enough space to allow water and small debris to pass through without collecting on the surface, but not enough to create a tripping hazard. Certain materials, like pressure-treated wood, shrink over time, so they may need less space at installation.

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.

The life expectancy of deck boards varies widely based on the material, climate, and maintenance. Untreated wood boards typically last 10 to 30 years with proper care, while pressure-treated boards can last up to 50 years. Hardwoods generally outlast softwoods. Composite boards also tend to last longer than natural wood. Environmental factors like arid or humid climates can shorten a deck's lifespan. To extend the life of wood decking, it's important to consistently clean and seal it to protect against moisture, UV light, and insects.

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.
