"WOW.
I thought my 30 year old redwood deck wasn't salvageable, but Rupert convinced me to do so.  He was very prompt & reliable & knowledgeable and everything went as planned.    A real pleasure to work with, especially if you prefer texting over e-mails!!
I thought it was going to need replacement, a cost of $20,000 using a wood/plastic composite.  I am glad I didn't spend all that money- I would have had a plastic deck (Trex )that would scratch/warp/stain/turn to plastic-dust ( according to reviews at http://www.consumeraffairs.com/homeowners/trex_composite_decking.html) 
Instead, I have a sturdy splinter free redwood deck and $18,000 still in my pocket.  Environmentally I saved as well, by 'fixing & reusing rather than buying/manufacturing plastics that would end up un-decomposed in a landfill one day.
If you want a facelift on your old deck- Summit Deck Doctors is the way to go.
If you think your deck is dying and needs to be buried & replaced, don't do so without asking Summit Deck Doctors to resuscitate it.

"I hired Richard to reconstruct my front stairs, deck, guard and rails. He explained in detail the work he will be doing and provided a proper quote. I appreciate the fact that he keeps me updated on the progress of the work. Richard's carpentry skills are exemplary and outstanding. He made sure that whatever work he did conforms to the latest applicable building codes. I'm very satisfied with the quality of his work. He did not only reconstruct my stairs and deck but made it much stronger and safer. We are very happy and pleased with the work that Richard has done. We recommend Richard to everyone who needs work done on their stairs, decks and other carpentry work in their homes. Thank you Richard."

"The job was to remove a stump by hand in a restricted space. Genaro arrived on time and performed work in a surprisingly short time. Preserved and reinstalled the decomposed granite that surrounded the stump after adding fill dirt to make the area level. Excellent work."

"We hired Bayside Builders to do our home renovation project because we needed some help with designing and building a new outdoor fireplace. They were able to come up with an impressive design, plus they did such a great job with the construction! The pergolas they built for us are doing wonders in keeping the backyard cool- we love them! We would definitely recommend this company as they provide high quality service at very reasonable prices."

"They did a good job of gutter cleaning and deck washing on a 16-suite medical office building, and Rolando was very informative about what the crew was doing and why. He quoted me the added cost to install stainless-steel gutter guard screens, which I had them do while on the job. These screens are a bit pricey, but it seems to be a good quality product and they did excellent work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.
