"Ryan does great work, we love our decks! We bought a house that needed some work including a large deck in the back of the house. It was 30 years old and not safe to use so he took it down completely and built us a new one. We love spending time outside on it. Since he did such a good job there, we also asked him to do the front entrance deck and what a difference it has made in our curb appeal. He is thorough and patient and takes care in his work and it shows. He’s also just a nice guy. We really enjoy working with Ryan and will continue to do so in the years to come. Highly recommended!"

Here at Precise, we are just that, Precise. We are a second-generation company that’s been in business for 30 years. We specialize in New home construction, Custom kitchens, Kitchen installations, Bathroom remodeling, and best of all we can take care of restoration work for older homes. Our work has been published in books and catalogs over the years and we are Owner operated.

"We are very excited to have our new kitchen. Our major deciding factor when choosing a contractor was the quality of work. We had gone to several places, but we did not see the quality we were looking for until we saw the showroom with their work. We were pleasantly surprised that our demo started on time, we were kept informed of the project status and we did add on a few other projects along the way. Overall, we love the quality of the workmanship, the carpenters skills are on point with the trim work, the painters were fantastic as well. We doubled the size of kitchen and we are very pleased with the results."

Decks and Porches questions, answered by experts

The problems with composite decking include a high rate of expansion and contraction from temperature swings. This characteristic can cause boards to split, delaminate, or peel. In addition, significant movement can cause shrinking, warping, twisting, and bending. For this reason, you should minimize moisture and ensure proper airflow below your deck.

Lattice should not touch the ground, as it creates a possibility for rot and a termite infestation. It’s best to leave a gap of 3 or 4 inches at the bottom for airflow and to keep the wood dry. You can add stones, bricks, or other decorative pieces to conceal the bottom of the lattice if desired.

If you want to use the space beneath your second-story deck, then yes, an under-deck drainage system is worth it. Having a drainage system in place lets you run power to the area, so you can install a ceiling fan, lighting, TV, or other appliances to create a comfortable outdoor living space.

You can use a few different tactics to prevent your deck gate from sagging. Aside from using strong, rot-resistant woods, introducing a diagonal element—such as a tension rod or solid piece of wood to act as a brace—across the gate will offer better support. You can also use rigid joists to prevent the gate from sagging.

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.
