"Excellent. David and his team worked with me throughout the entire process. A received a prompt call from David after my initial inquiry. He answered all my questions and worked with me through the entire process (even when I had changes.) He was prompt and on-time every day and was even ahead of schedule with my specific time-frame for a big deck. He's a hard worker with attention to detail and exceeded my expectations. From my experience and interactions, he has a lot of integrity. David was accommodating through some of my changes mid-stream and was a pleasure to work with. After reading reviews from others, I can say that I was not disappointed. I would not hesitate to hire Fiber-Coat Deck Co. again for my next project and would recommend them to my friends. Thank you, David. A job well done. The deck looks awesome Work done: remove asphalt shingles, clean up and secure existing nails, lay down and screw in T&G plywood, install multi-layer deck coating (metal lathe, concrete overlay, fiberglass coating, fiberglass sheets, resin, texture, final deck coating/color)."

"OC Decks did a fabulous job from start to finish and deserves an A++ grade! My mother needed her 484 square foot deck above a 3-car garage waterproofed. She had previously repaired the existing roofing material that was really old but there were still problems with leaking. So I found three companies (from Angie's List and Yelp) and scheduled them to inspect and provide proposals to remove the existing roofing material and install a new waterproofed deck. Of the three companies that we interviewed and received proposals, we liked OC Decks the best for the following reasons: 1) Ed and Sharon Kim, the owners, came out to meet us on the first visit while the other two companies sent estimators; 2) Ed suggested installing wood pickets to the existing wood railing to make it more secure and showed us pictures of another project where he finished a similar installation; 3) Ed said he would repair the deck stucco walls and paint to match the existing color; 4) OC Decks provided a step-by-step proposal of the project; and 5) Their three references spoke very highly of the quality of the work by OC Decks. While OC Decks original proposal was not the cheapest, we felt liked the project scope because new wood pickets would be installed in addition to waterproofing the deck. We had to wait for OC Decks about 1.5 months before the start date because they had a backlog of projects. But OC Decks was worth the wait. It took them 2 weeks to complete the project with Lorenzo and Abraham at the project every day and occasional visits from Miguel the foreman. Alexia, the office assistant, emailed me pictures of their progress every day and I spoke with Sharon and Ed several times about their recommended changes and approval of two change orders. My mother is thrilled with her new waterproofed deck and updated wood railing and I thought that the workmanship was excellent. This remodeling project was a success from start to finish. Thank you OC Decks!"

We are happy with the whole process of initiating the project, arranging the service and the service itself. Very fast response from the office clerk and the owner. The two year warranty provided by the company gave us a piece of mind. The job was done in less than the week. If the nice painting sustains over the years to come as promised by the owner, we could certainly hire them back for other painting and roof needs.

"We had In-Line do the following projects for us:
  1. 1.Pour concrete on the left side of the house where there was previously just dirt and gravel

2. Break up concrete on the other side of the house, as well as breaking up concrete in front of the house to fix an old drainage problem from the previous owners. This resulted in a nice, seamless concrete layout from the front to the side of the house.
3. Build a short planter wall in the yard to help correct some weird gradient issues
4. Fix a cinderblock wall on the right side of the house that was poorly doen by the previous owners, basically rendering access to that side of the house useless?even though there was an existing gate there.
5. Fix a short wall between our neighbors house that became dislodged
6. Place ledgestone on the front of the house, as well as on top of a short cinderblock wall (the face of it). On that short wall, he also installed matching wall caps
Overall, the project went very well. There were a couple hiccups but that?s to be expected, as no remodeling/construction job ever goes exactly to plan. We enjoy working with Steve and his crew because they are professional, always on time, and leave the job site clean every day.
 
Look forward to our next project with him!

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

The problems with composite decking include a high rate of expansion and contraction from temperature swings. This characteristic can cause boards to split, delaminate, or peel. In addition, significant movement can cause shrinking, warping, twisting, and bending. For this reason, you should minimize moisture and ensure proper airflow below your deck.

Pressure-treated decking may be worth it if you want a natural, insect- and rot-resistant decking material that will last for decades with proper maintenance. As such, it’s a much better option than untreated pine. Alternative wood decking materials like cedar and redwood tend to be less durable and more expensive. Some homeowners prefer composite decking, which is a low-maintenance alternative to wood but is also more costly.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

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.
