"Dan did an excellent job of planning and then building a rail to go from my deck down to the yard. He also fixed the gate that wouldn’t close completely. He came when he said he would and completed the work when he said he would. I would hire him for any other Handy work at my house."

"Marshall repaired and upgraded our deck and also completed many other small handyman projects around the house in preparation for a home sale. He and his team did great work. He was also very responsive and met or exceeded promised timeframes for completion. He also proactively followed up afterward to ensure everything was satisfactory. Highly recommended!"

"I recently had the pleasure of hiring Valenzuela Fence to build a fence around my property, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, their attention to detail was impeccable. Not only did they work with remarkable speed, but the quality of their workmanship truly exceeded my expectations. Every component of the fence was constructed with the utmost care, using materials that clearly prioritize durability and longevity. What impressed me the most was how perfectly square and beautifully crafted the fence turned out. It's evident that they take great pride in their work, as every inch of the fence reflects a commitment to excellence. Moreover, the team was incredibly professional throughout the entire process. They were respectful of my property and addressed any concerns I had with patience and understanding. Without hesitation, I would hire Valenzuela Fence again for any future projects, and I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone in need of a reliable and skilled fencing contractor. Their work speaks for itself, and I am beyond satisfied with the results."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

In the majority of cases, you don’t need regulatory permission or permits to remove decking components and materials. However, the exception is if you live in or near a wildlife conservation area, which could require permits and consent prior to beginning the demolition. Check with a local regulatory agency for more information.

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.

A deck that isn’t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don’t need deck stairs. Some don’t even require permits. Generally speaking, building a floating deck is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that’s connected to your home.

While experienced DIYers may take on the challenge, hiring a licensed professional is often the best route, especially for larger or elevated structures. A local deck contractor is typically the best pro for the job, as they have specialized experience and are knowledgeable about local building codes, ensuring your deck is built safely and designed to last. Other professionals who can build a deck include general contractors and carpenters, who may be more readily available in some regions.

When installing deck boards, screws are generally a better option than nails. Screws offer superior holding strength over time, keeping the boards securely in place. In contrast, nails are more likely to pop out, which can create a tripping hazard. While you can use either, we recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws. To minimize the risk of cracking the wood, it's a good practice to drill small pilot holes before driving the screws into the deck joists.
