"Kelly helped with *lots* of various things around my new house, and everything is looking great! We kept going to fix one thing and finding extra problems to deal with, and he just rolled with it all, until we were done! I’ll definitely be calling him back out to help with future projects! He was excellent, and I couldn’t have done all this without his help! Thanks again, Kelly! Until next time!"

"Iâ ve used Marshall half a dozen times or more over the past 8 years. First project was scraping popcorn ceilings , tetexturing and repainting. His excellent team prompted me to recommend him many times and use him for more projects. A few other projects included installation of a large sliding patio door, electrical outlet install, shower valve replacement, drywall repair and retexturing, exterior window trim replacement, etc. You get the point - he does a variety of jobs, good quality and competitive pricing. Highly recommend Marshall and his team"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Building a deck isn't too hard if you’re handy with carpentry, have the necessary tools, and are willing to put effort into it. However, other factors, such as plans, permits, and design, can be hard if you don’t have experience in those areas.

Note: You’ll need another person to help you build the deck (especially for framing and setting the beams). Building a deck yourself will be very difficult if you don’t have an extra set of hands to help.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

In most cases, there should be a small gap between the house and the deck, usually no more than ½ to ¾ of an inch. This space allows water and moisture to flow through instead of pooling against the side of your house. It also lets flashing protect your siding from runoff, which is one of the most common issues with decks.

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.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area.
