"The Deck Guy (Colorado). I needed a deck refurbish and refinish job on both my upstairs and downstairs decks. Barron responded quickly, came by and surveyed the work to be done, advised as to my best options and quoted me a fair price and fit me into his schedule with minimum delays, Less than 2 weeks later the crew showed up to start the job. The crew foreman was highly experienced, and I had confidence in him and Barron to tell me what needed to be done and some other things that would probably not benefit the job. Barron was highly professional, communicated well and was a straight shooter overall. I would recommend The Deck Guy without reservation."

"I would 100% recommend Higher Ground Irrigation & Lawn Care. I needed the post replaced on my gate and they did a quick and excellent job. Seriously, contacted them /(and bunch others) on Tuesday, they came out the next day to quote and did not pressure me. Then when I gave the green light, they told me they can begin work Friday and finish completely Saturday morning as the cement needs to set. Exactly what they said they did. Very nice people and very professional and affordable!"

"Brandon and his team are amazing! They do what they say, when they say, and the quality of work is top-notch. My deck needed a complete overhaul due to rotting wood and poor infrastructure that was also not to code. Brandon worked with me on the budget that I had, offering his expertise and recommendations as to what "absolutely" needed to be done vs. what could wait until Spring. His crew is honest and hard working (who works until 6pm on a Friday anymore!) - both of which are very tough to find. Last but not least, at the end of each work day the crew cleaned up, swept, and hauled away materials. I didn't have to worry about nails, wood, and whatever else all over my driveway at the end of each day, which is also important with young kids. If you are looking for deck repair or a complete deck overhaul, I highly recommend Deck Doctor! Brandon and his team with 25+ years of experience are genuinely good people!"

"I rarely take the time to rate a service provider but it would be negligent of me not to praise the work that Mickey Regan did for us. He not only did an incredible job repainting our house and barn but he also did an amazing job of replacing all the rotted out wood and deck. His attention to detail was beyond compare. We are bringing him back to remodel our master bathroom as well as paint the interior of the house. I would recommend him in a heartbeat for any home repair."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Building a deck is often worth the investment, not only because it provides more utility to your yard and gives you more space to entertain but also because decks tend to add value to your home. Keep in mind that second-story decks often require concrete footings, which means they will bump up your property taxes, while decks built on the first story generally don’t require a permanent foundation and won’t affect your taxes. Even with the tax increase, decks are usually a good investment in the long run.

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

Cutting the boards directly is one of the fastest ways to remove deck boards with hidden fasteners. Mark two parallel lines that are one-third of the total measurement on both ends and cut out the centerpiece. Then, remove the end of the board that doesn’t have a fastener. Finally, pry open the fastened side and pull it up to pop out the screw or access the fastener. This also allows you to salvage portions of boards for other projects.

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.

Composite decking might cost more upfront, but it delivers value in terms of durability. Unlike wood, composite material resists common deck problems such as rotting, fading, warping, and all the other things you don’t want a deck to do. The extra processes lead to a higher price tag, but you’ll save big in maintenance costs down the road.
