"They meticulously sanded the deck, which was a lot of work.  This was done with a hand-held rotary sander-- we were really impressed.  They stained the deck two times to begin with.  Likely due to sun bleaching, there were some areas on the deck that were lighter than the rest.  I asked Dave to add some stain to those areas, and he was happy to do that.  In the end, they put much more stain on our deck than would normally go on a deck for staining, but our deck needed extra because it was in such bad shape.  For the patio cover, they painted the beams at least 2 times with the blue paint that they purchased and matched to our house trim.  They purchased the lattice, stained it, cut it, and attached it to the beams.  Everything looked beautiful!  We were very happy that we had decided to go with Dave's suggestion of painting the cross beams (and support beams) of the patio cover with blue paint-- it ended up looked very nice!  Like Dave had suggested, it really did make the patio tie-in with the color scheme of the house.  There was one very minor thing that I asked Dave to correct when I made the final payment (the lattice needed re-tacking in a couple places), and they came back later to fix that.  Overall, I was very happy with their work, and very impressed with their professionalism. They did have some scheduling challenges and as a result the work took longer than expected (approx. two weeks instead of one week), but this was not a big inconvenience for us."

"I bought the Big Deal which was just for a single top coat to reseal the deck surface.  However, my deck was in a little bit worse shape than the deal allowed.  However, Ryan was awesome and added in sanding and then did the reseal for no additional charge.  The surface is not perfect but that is due to the rough pre-condition it was in and not his fault.  Shortly after the reseal the deck drains started leaking in to the garage below.  Ryan and crew came out again to fix the drain at no additional cost.  Again, this was not in the deal I bought but they provide such great customer service.  I would definitely use them again and will recommend them to friends and neighbors!

"I am very satisfied with Eugene’s work on a kitchen and bedroom renovation project in Tahoe City. Throughout the project he was a great communicator. He was responsive and he met his timeline and commitments. The quality of the work did not disappoint. It’s incredibly rare to find a contractor that finishes work on time, and on target, but Eugene is that person. I recommend Eugene without reservation."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can build a deck over your outdoor HVAC unit, but you need to leave at least 5 feet of vertical clearance above the unit. If you don’t want your deck to be that high off the ground, you could build a floating deck in another part of your yard—again, as long as you leave at least 4 feet of horizontal space between the deck and your AC unit.

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. 

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.

Deck repairs cost around $800 to $3,500 . However, your cost depends on the type and severity of the repair, as well as the type of decking material you have. Other factors, like location and labor costs, impact the price, too. Boards and railings are the priciest parts of a deck to repair, while loose stairs are less expensive to fix.

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.
