"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."

"Mike was punctual and very professional on this project which took a little over two days to complete. His assistant was very skilled in the kind of carpentry required for building a deck and benches incorporated into the structure. The photo shows the triangular area repaired after a spa had been removed. The new redwood had not yet been stained to match the older part of the deck."

"I couldn?t be happier with my experience with Encore Builders. Our pool was 20+ years old, and we were nervous about the remodel, but they made it so easy. They helped us pick new tile and decking that completely changed the look of our backyard. Their crew worked quickly and efficiently without cutting corners. Every single person we dealt with was polite and professional, and they kept us in the loop about costs and timing. The craftsmanship is obvious, the finish is flawless. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering a pool renovation."

"Clark and his crew did a great job of renewing our deck and patio cover. He was able to start the job right away and finished the project on time. The crew were very courteous and hard working. The job entailed replacing several rotted boards, sanding and repainting the entire structure. It looks good as new."

"We had some wall damage in our bathroom, a faucet that wouldn’t shut off, regrouting that needed to be done, closet doors rehung, and an overhead light in our 2nd bedroom that wouldn’t shut completely off. The Gaza Guy (Yusuf) fixed it all flawlessly and efficiently. He’s a great guy, very knowledgeable and easy to work with. I plan on using him for all our repairs from now on instead of trying to muddle through on my own. Highly recommend his services."

"After dealing with frequent roof repairs, we finally decided on a complete replacement for our Livermore home. Avi kept us informed every step of the way, and the finished roof exceeded our expectations. It's made a noticeable difference during hot summer days."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won’t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.

Yes, deck footings typically require an inspection before laying down concrete. While not all local building codes require footing inspection, proper placement ensures a safe and structurally sound deck. An inspector will verify that the deck can adequately hold what you put on top of it., and that the footings have been dug to the correct dimensions.

Yes, deck pier blocks can be used as an alternative to traditional deck footings, particularly for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks don’t require digging or pouring. However, their use is regulated by local building codes, and they may not be permitted in areas prone to high winds, earthquakes, or hurricanes. Always consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck project.

Yes, Ipe is more expensive than Trex decking—both in terms of materials and installation (plus, Ipe trees are endangered). On average, Ipe decking costs $10 to $25 per square foot, while Trex decking costs $5 to $12 per square foot. Because Ipe is harder to work with, the price of installation is higher, too. For Ipe decking, you’ll pay between $20 and $45 per square foot for labor. However, with Trex decking, the labor costs range from $8 to $22 per square foot.

Space deck handrail posts four to six feet apart. If the posts are more than six feet apart, the railing will be less able to withstand lateral forces and is more susceptible to breaking. Additionally, railing posts that are more than six feet apart may not be up to code, and you may face fines and be required to reinstall the posts to bring them up to code.
