"Dave was punctual and was very hardworking, making sure my new decking system was installed correctly. He took the time to install each layer of the decking system and made the finished surface graded so the water drained off perfectly. I would hire him again if I ever need to redo my deck."

"An engineering friend recommended that I contact Farid to inquire about his carpentry skills, after seeing his work on a few projects. Farid personally came out, drafted a proposal after carefully inspecting the necessary repairs, and worked regularly and diligently to vastly improve the strength and appearance of my 17 year old backyard structure. It was a very pleasant experience overall, and Farid and his assistant Eddie did a beautiful job. Would hire again."

"I cannot say enough about Denali National Construction Company and itâ s owners Victor and Mayra! Along with their excellent crew they made my unexpected project of extensive wood repair and whole house painting go smoothly from start to finish! Mayra immediately answered all questions and immediately returned all phone calls. The guys were there 7:30am sharp every single day, worked hard, and left the job spotless each late afternoon. Victor came by even if he was not working on my house that day to check on how everything was going. I had asked Victor to please also take care of any unforeseen issues which he did without hesitation. My house looks beautiful and all because of Victor and his dedicated workers who not only did an excellent job, but really cared about what they were doing! Endless thanks to Denali National Construction Company for their honesty, integrity, and commitment to getting the job done â … right!!!"

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Cutting the boards directly is one of the fastest ways to remove deck boards with hidden fasteners. Mark two parallel lines that are one-third of the total measurement on both ends and cut out the centerpiece. Then, remove the end of the board that doesn’t have a fastener. Finally, pry open the fastened side and pull it up to pop out the screw or access the fastener. This also allows you to salvage portions of boards for other projects.

The choice between Trex, a brand of composite decking, and PVC decking depends on your priorities regarding budget, appearance, and environmental impact. Both materials are durable and resistant to moisture and insects. Trex is often considered more eco-friendly because it contains recycled wood and plastic and is 25% recyclable, while PVC is fully synthetic and harder to recycle. Aesthetically, Trex is designed to look more like real wood, whereas PVC often has a glossier, more plastic-like finish. In terms of cost, Trex is typically less expensive than PVC.

In many areas, a floating deck that isn’t connected to your home and stays under 200 square feet and below 30 inches in height may not need a permit. These freestanding structures are often considered low-risk, which can simplify the building process. However, building codes vary greatly based on location. Before investing in any home improvement project, check with your local permitting office for deck-building guidelines.

Staining and sealing the underside of a deck creates a moisture barrier but traps water in the boards, quickly leading to rot. No matter how well you seal the above deck, water still gets through via nails and screw heads on the surface. Allow this water to flow naturally under the deck, where it is routed through the drainage system.

Liquid rubber is great for waterproofing, but it can damage your deck if it’s not applied correctly. First, it can trap moisture in the wood if the deck isn’t completely dry before application.  Second, applying it too thickly can create a heavy, rubbery surface layer that peels and cracks under fluctuating temperatures. For the best results, ensure the wood is completely dry before application, and apply the liquid rubber in thin, even coats. A quick inspection every now and then will help you catch any issues early, keeping your deck protected and looking its best.
