Ed came out to inspect and subsequently sent me a Proposal - which I thought was fairly priced. Ed subsequently made my requested clarifications/addition to the Proposal (i.e., start date; dimensions of replacement cap-rail). His crew arrived on time on the first day (and every day). They worked all day, every day and never interrupted me unless a critical question arose (which I appreciated since I was working at home). His crew showed-up every day without fail and actually finished a day earlier than anticipated. They did find additional wood rot in one vertical post and adjoining 2" x 2" horizontal boards, so additional work was necessary. OC Decks sent me an Change Order describing the additional work and costs - which I found to be fair. Luis and the other gentleman (I can't recall his name) did an excellent job replacing just the top six inches of one 6" x 6" vertical post (the joint is barely noticeable). They filled-in all the gaps with silicone. They painted all the wood surfaces of the balcony's railing and adjoining fascia board (they had the paint matched to the color of my white composite cap-rail. They sprayed to kill fungus on adjoining eves and facia board. They replaced the cap-rail (railing) with my requested "composite" board (waterproof). They painted my balcony's deck/membrane with a deck-paint of my choosing. They added an Acrylic Membrane to the lower four inches of each vertical post to prevent rain water from seeping under the deck membrane into my family room below. I had originally intended to do the work myself, but I'm glad I didn't because OC DECKS did so much more work than I thought there was to do (you never know how far wood rot goes until you start pulling apart the wood railing). OC DECKS didn't just replace my railing - they found fungus and wood rot that I wasn't aware of. They spent a lot of time eliminating the candle wax that had melted onto the deck membrane. I'm very happy with the work they did. Although I can't closely inspect the paint (for missed spots or streaks) until the paint dries in 48-72 hours, it looks excellent from what I can see from my window and from outside. I DEFINITELY recommend OC DECKS. Ed Kim, his wife Sharon, Myriam in the office, and Luis and his fellow-worker were all very professional and detail-oriented. I'm a perfectionist by nature, so I don't often write such great reviews, but this review is warranted in this case.

"We just had our kitchen completely renovated by Beverly Builders Group, and we couldn't be happier with the end result! Lawrence was our contractor and he fully brought our vision to life!!! My family and I went out of the country while the kitchen renovations were done and Lawrence took care of everything for us. He was super easy to get in contact with when we needed him or had any questions. He honestly went above and beyond for us and I loved how transparent he was about the job along the way. I've worked with other contractors in the past that weren't so honest and it was such a nice experience this time around. Emily was our project coordinator and designer and kept us updated daily on what was happening. We were always in communication with her and she overlooked our shopping list of all appliances so nothing was missed on our installation dates. Their team was amazing and I highly recommend them to anyone who wants the best! We were so happy with them that our master bathroom"

FAQs for deck repair projects in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA
While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct home features. Porches offer a roof that protects from the elements when coming and going from the house. Generally, porches are on the front of your home. On the other hand, decks are generally built in the backyard of a home and offer no roof or protection from the elements, like rain or snow. Porches typically require less maintenance and upkeep thanks to the roof, but both features require regular cleaning and repairs to maintain good condition.
There are a few ways to make your deck look new without professional power washing. First, you can use either store-bought cleaners or dish soap and water to mop your deck regularly to clean off accumulated dirt. To clean your deck and remove mold, mix two gallons of warm water with a ½ cup of distilled white vinegar or apple cider vinegar, rinse the area, and then scrub with a stiff-bristled broom.
For an average deck of about 300 square feet, you can expect to pay around $100. However, if you have a spacious 1,000-square-foot deck or more, expect that cost to be closer to $300 to $400. Likewise, if it’s been a long time since you deep cleaned your deck, the deck professional might need extra time and to use deck-specific detergent, which will increase the overall cost.
You should have your deck professionally cleaned twice a year—once in the spring and once in the fall. A springtime cleaning wipes away grime and mold that accumulated during the wet winter months, making it sparkly clean for summer use. Likewise, cleaning your deck in the fall allows you to wash away grease and leftover mess from the fun summer months rather than letting them soak into your deck over the winter.
The cost to build a deck is $8,025 on average. However, this cost can range anywhere from $1,500 to $22,000, depending on multiple factors, such as size, materials, and deck type. You can expect to pay $30 to $60 per square foot when building a new deck.
Cedar decks are often the most cost-effective option, ranging from $4 to $9per square foot for materials. However, pressure-treated decking, which is resistant to rot, is more expensive, ranging from $15 to $25 per square foot for materials.
