"Once we gotten started things went well. While they were ready to go in Sept. I was hoping to have some windows replaced (hail damage) before they painted. Finally I agreed to go ahead because we had an excellent window of opportunity weatherwise. The onsite project manager, John  Pandolphi was present to ensure things went smoothly, provide supplies and check on the crew. John made himself available by cell phone if I had any questions etc.The crew was always prompt and arrived at the agreed upon time. They always cleaned up thoroughly at the end of the day. I allowed them to store some ladders in my yard during their work period. Jay and the crew were friendly, respectful and easy to work with.

"Made contact with Joe. He was prompt with giving me a estimate, and start date. Contacting Joe prior to and during the job was easy. He seemed to always answer his phone. His crew did an excellent job with above mentioned tasks. They were very polite and respectful. Once the job was finished Joe, and his crew cleaned up after themselves, and made sure my wife and I were satisfied before they left. I will use Joe and his crew for any upcoming projects I have."

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.

The best way to clean your decking is to clear debris from the gaps between the boards, sweep the surface, rinse it, apply cleaner, rinse again, and let it dry fully. A homemade deck cleaner made of two gallons of warm water and 1/2 cup vinegar is a simple cleaning solution for both wood and composite decking. You can sprinkle baking soda on any spots with mold or mildew, then scrub the area and rinse clean. 

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

Many composite decking manufacturers, including the popular Trex brand, offer warranties that protect against warping under specific conditions. These warranties typically last between 20 and 50 years, but they usually exclude claims related to improper installation of the product. Some manufacturer warranties only cover decks built by certified professionals.

The best material for your deck depends on several factors, including your budget, location, aesthetic preferences, and the level of maintenance you’re willing to do. Wood decking, like redwood, ipe, cedar, and pine, lasts the longest, but it’s more expensive and requires more upkeep than composite and synthetic decking.
