"I asked Rusty to come out to see my deck and discuss what maintenance and repair needs to be done now to help the deck last. I showed him what I thought my problem areas and concerns were. He reassured me that my deck was in better shape than I thought and pointed out a few boards that should be replaced. The best part was he gave me a great education and advice about what I can do to take better care of my deck going forward - not just what to do, but what not to do as well. Very friendly and professional. I really appreciated his time and expert advice."

"I had 4 decks that were approx all the same size. Were 20 yrs odd and original wood. I chatted with Cid to see options. He checked them out and had two options ... Sand and Seal or replace the top decking. We were looking for a long term solution so we choose the replacement. Cid helped guide us to the right material and we choose Timbertech with no breaks which meant 18' lengths. Quick, efficient, total cleanup. Cid returned for some post project adjustments and all is perfect. Highly recommend. Jack/Castle Pines Village"

"Need a deck? Have a deck? Either one and The Deck Guy is your “go to” company. Call Barron at 303-564-9505, They just completed periodic maintenance on our 38-year-old, 600 sq. ft., redwood deck. It looks like NEW as it did after their past work. That’s why we again called The Deck Guy. The workers who power washed, prepped, and re-stained our deck were knowledgeable, professional, and consistently demonstrated their commitment to us as customers. The weather was often too hot or too rainy and it messed with the schedule, but we were promptly updated. You tell the quality of a work team by how they interact with each other. Regardless of which tasks or who were are on-site it was always a great team. The quality of the worker surely comes from the values of Barron. He’s the owner and he’s The Deck Guy."

"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."

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.

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.

No. In most cases, it’s not colder or freezing temperatures that affect decking materials but the amount of moisture that seeps into the materials as a result. For example, wood decking material is more likely to suffer from rot or decay when exposed to excess moisture from snow or ice. An extreme change in temperature can cause wood to expand or contract, but only if it’s not properly treated beforehand.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

Any wood deck provides some ventilation to the area below, as is the nature of that type of deck design. However, areas that experience excessive humidity and associated moisture benefit greatly from a dedicated ventilation system in the form of strip vents. This addition helps the various wood boards contract and expand evenly throughout the years and reduces the chances of twisting, warping, and buckling.
