"Starlight sent two dependable employees, who were diligent about getting our deck and fence power washed the first day. They returned the next day to spray (fence) and brush (deck) with the stain. Both were conscientious about their work, careful to protect our property and cleaned up after the job was completed. I would not hesitate to recommend Starlight Restoration!"

"After conducting a site visit where I noted the scope of the project would probably extend to re-painting the home exterior, he noted that he did decking only and advised us to find someone who could do both jobs. We greatly appreciated the advice and are following that course of action."

"Jon came out EARLY, gave me a fair estimate and completed his job on the spot. He installed my Christmas lights for me on a two story house on the gutters and eaves. Jon was very professional and did an excellent job. I will be contacting him is I am in need for anymore handyman or landscaping work at my home. Thank you Jon for your great job."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

Deck stairs should have at least three stringers rather than two. The recommended minimum width for stairs is 36 inches, and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors recommends at least three cut stringers to provide sufficient support on wood decking stairs of this width. Generally, stringers should be a maximum of 16 inches apart for wood decking and 12 inches apart for more flexible composite decking.

The cost to repair a deck is between $900 and $3,500, depending on the cause and extent of the damage. For example, fixing a sinking deck caused by pest damage can cost between $200 and $600, while replacing sinking boards costs between $500 and $4,000.

The life expectancy of deck boards varies widely based on the material, climate, and maintenance. Untreated wood boards typically last 10 to 30 years with proper care, while pressure-treated boards can last up to 50 years. Hardwoods generally outlast softwoods. Composite boards also tend to last longer than natural wood. Environmental factors like arid or humid climates can shorten a deck's lifespan. To extend the life of wood decking, it's important to consistently clean and seal it to protect against moisture, UV light, and insects.
