"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

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Yes. Freestanding or floating decks are exactly what the name implies—structures with their own support beams. You can build a deck yourself and place it next to a house for the illusion of a connected deck without the hassle. Or you can construct it in a separate part of your yard for a dedicated outdoor entertainment space. For the purpose of removing a freestanding deck, the steps are the same as an attached deck, but you don’t have to cut the deck away from the home.

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
