"This is the second project where I had worked with Jim and his crew, and I highly recommend their work and professionalism. Jim has great communication about the project timeline and takes time to check in along the way to ensure that the work was progressing as we had envisioned. Any changes (on my part) was handled with utmost attention and Jim was very good about providing alternate ideas as well as educating us on the added time to the project. We absolutely love our new metal deck railing and the updated Trex stairs and fascia boards makes this a truly maintenance free deck. I would certainly work with Jim for any future projects."

"Valente and his team did a great job with our yard. They demoed our deck, replaced it with a stamped concrete patio, added a sidewalk, replaced a 150' section of fence, and updated our landscape and sprinkler system to complement the new patio. All of the work completed was of high quality, and Valente kept us apprised of changes, challenges and recommendations throughout the job. Valente is open, honest and direct so there were no surprises on the cost of the work. He and his team were wonderful to work with and we are hoping to use them again for other projects we have on our list."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

A deck doesn’t have to be perfectly level. Many pros even recommend a gentle slope to ensure proper drainage and increase longevity. The ideal gentle slope is about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per foot away from the property, leading water away from the home to prevent pooling and reduce the risk of damage. It also minimizes rot, mold, and other moisture-related problems. 

The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.

Your deck may pop, and your neighbor’s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it’s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another.

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.

Wood decks need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years on average. Natural wood is highly vulnerable to infiltration and damage from moisture, which can occur rapidly due to exposure to outdoor elements. You can protect your deck and maximize its lifespan by sealing it every year or two.
