"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

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.

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

Pressure-treated wood contains preservatives that give the material internal protection from rot and pests. Untreated lumber won’t last more than a few years unless you choose a more expensive wood, like cedar, that naturally stands up well to moisture. Composite decking can outlast wood but is more expensive and doesn’t look as natural. Keep in mind that you’ll need to seal any exterior wood product to protect it from the elements and other forms of external damage.

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.

Yes, you can build a deck over your outdoor HVAC unit, but you need to leave at least 5 feet of vertical clearance above the unit. If you don’t want your deck to be that high off the ground, you could build a floating deck in another part of your yard—again, as long as you leave at least 4 feet of horizontal space between the deck and your AC unit.
