"I called Mr. Standish at the last minute, and he was able to fit me in. He explained everything in advance, and I was able to check out his website and a sample report, which really helped. He arrived promptly, and did a very thorough job in every part of the house,including the roof and the crawlspace.His report arrived via email first, which was fantastic! I also received a beautiful bound report in color, with all the problems spelled out, which helped when I was having the repair work done. In addition to all this, I feel I received a very fair price, especially for the services performed. Mr Standish was also very responsive to my phone calls, when I had a few questions for clarification after I received the report. All in all, it was hassle-free and I would and do recommend Standish Inspections to my friends and family."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

What goes under your floating deck depends on your preferences. Some homeowners put landscaping fabric underneath their decks to prevent weeds from popping up through the boards. Others choose to build a floating deck over grass or gravel. However, it’s best not to set your deck directly on the ground. Instead, set your deck on blocks to keep it elevated enough to prevent moisture from rotting the wood.

Wood decks need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years on average. Natural wood is highly vulnerable to infiltration and damage from moisture, which can occur rapidly due to exposure to outdoor elements. You can protect your deck and maximize its lifespan by sealing it every year or two.

Many people say the best composite decking is Trex, TimberTech, or Fiberon. These brands have formulated composite deck boards to withstand the elements and hold up over time. Each offers a range of product lines varying in durability, price, and appearance. Compare their different composite decking offers for cost, looks, and features before deciding on a product.

A deck doesn’t have to be perfectly level. Many pros even recommend a gentle slope to ensure proper drainage and increase longevity. The ideal gentle slope is about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per foot away from the property, leading water away from the home to prevent pooling and reduce the risk of damage. It also minimizes rot, mold, and other moisture-related problems. 

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.
