"It was a little expensive, but I had some extra stuff that needed to be done as well. And William was straightforward when issuing the estimate. It was worth it. William and his team were AWESOME, PROFESSIONAL and had GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!! I forgot to say NEAT and cleaned everything up. That was a plus for me, because some contractors leave evidence of their presence behind. Thanks again William."

"Dave and his crew did an outstanding job refinishing my deck. They were here on time, removed everything from the deck, power washed, sanded, and applied the stain. They also put new locks on my gates. They let it dry overnight and will come back to place all my deck furniture where it was. While they were here Dave noticed we did not have a cap on our chimney. He went up to check it t out and saw that the cement around the top was all cracked. He went and got a cap for us, put new cement around the chimney, and installed a cap. Our deck really needed to be refinished and now it looks brand new. I would most definitely recommend them for any job."

"Santos and his team did an amazing job with bush trimming and removal, as well as powerwashing our patio, deck and house. He was very professional, puctual and easy to work with. The price was very reasonable for the large amount of work he did and he even did extra cleanup work that not alot of handymen would do. Excellent, fast service and I would definitely contact him again for other work. Highly recommended!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The best way to clean your decking is to clear debris from the gaps between the boards, sweep the surface, rinse it, apply cleaner, rinse again, and let it dry fully. A homemade deck cleaner made of two gallons of warm water and 1/2 cup vinegar is a simple cleaning solution for both wood and composite decking. You can sprinkle baking soda on any spots with mold or mildew, then scrub the area and rinse clean. 

Many composite decking manufacturers, including the popular Trex brand, offer warranties that protect against warping under specific conditions. These warranties typically last between 20 and 50 years, but they usually exclude claims related to improper installation of the product. Some manufacturer warranties only cover decks built by certified professionals.

Wood decks need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years on average. Natural wood is highly vulnerable to infiltration and damage from moisture, which can occur rapidly due to exposure to outdoor elements. You can protect your deck and maximize its lifespan by sealing it every year or two.

Yes, Ipe wood is a popular high-end choice for pool decking. It repels water and is naturally slip-resistant. It's not susceptible to mold, mildew, or rot, either, so it lasts longer and is cleaner and more hygienic than other popular decking materials. However, remember that due to its status, it is a very high-cost wood, and you might find that an alternative would serve you just as well for significantly less.

For a 12x20-foot (240-square-foot) deck, you can expect to pay between $7,200 and $14,400. This cost is based on a general price of $30 to $60 per square foot. The final price will depend on factors such as the decking material, design complexity, deck type, location, and local labor costs. Keep in mind that add-ons will increase the total; for example, adding an under-deck drainage system to a deck of this size could cost an additional $7,700.
