"I have hired them before and loved the work and professionalism. Just had to re hire when my deck stairs broke. They cleaned up very well when the job was done. An absolute pleased customer. Will have them back soon to do work on the inside of the house. Again, thank you!"

"Lifetime Construction both repaired and extended the length of my deck all in one day. They replaced all the supporting posts even down to pouring new footings, making the deck safer for me and my pride and joy Cocker Spaniel. They even placed boards on the backs of my stairs making it safer for my dog to go up and down the stairs as he gets older. They fixed a broken awning and tacked down a piece of siding that was flapping in the wind near my roof. They did these three things out of the goodness of their heart and at no additional cost to me. I am an older women with limited resources so their kindness saved me the time and expense of hiring three additional professionals. My deck is now up to code, no longer a liability, and a beautiful asset to my home. I'm looking forward to buying some new deck furniture and spending time relaxing on my deck which looks out over wetlands. I am thankful to Beckim and his crew for their hard work."

"Dan went above and beyond in what I had expected to get accomplished. It was the extra mile that Dan and his guy Chris went in order to make my basement look brand new. This included installing and framing a new door and framing a window. He also fixed all the other little things that weren't originally something i had asked for! Very polite and extremely knowledgeable. I was impressed, great guy and a great team, many thanks."

"Elvin is great. He fixed my wood double front doors and applied paint that I had picked out, as well as new handles/lock. He took his time, was very polite, and made sure everything was in order before in left. My front doors look amazing. Will be hiring him again for more work around the house. Also, his pricing was very reasonable and on point for the amount of repair and painting work he did."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Staining and sealing the underside of a deck creates a moisture barrier but traps water in the boards, quickly leading to rot. No matter how well you seal the above deck, water still gets through via nails and screw heads on the surface. Allow this water to flow naturally under the deck, where it is routed through the drainage system.

Putting lattice under a deck will create a polished look that allows for air ventilation. You can also store items underneath as the lattice provides privacy and protection from the weather. You can also put lattice under a porch to create a polished look in the front of your house.

Space deck handrail posts four to six feet apart. If the posts are more than six feet apart, the railing will be less able to withstand lateral forces and is more susceptible to breaking. Additionally, railing posts that are more than six feet apart may not be up to code, and you may face fines and be required to reinstall the posts to bring them up to code.

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.
