"Steve and his crew were amazing. They rebuilt our dock and roof better than anyone else. We had our dock rebuilt 7 yrs ago the company did not put the piling into the ground and they rotted away so the roof and platform were not supported. Our walkway was unlevel and multiple posts needed to be replaced. Steve and his team plus Cole rebuilt everything perfectly. His price was so reasonable. He showed up on time and not only did what he said he would do. He and his team went above and beyond. I can’t recommend him more highly. If you are looking for perfection and honesty he is your man. Thank you Steve and DockMD."

"WOW! John, Melinda and Ryan did one h—l of a job on my place. We’re not talking just driveway, we are talking house, roof, front yard wooden deck, back yard wooden pool deck, patio pavers (side and back yard), seawall, retention wall and even our teak furniture!!!! They worked on my “stuff” for 2 days, even in the rain. John had me inspect what they had completed before moving onto the next pressure washing endeavor to ensure I was fully satisfied each step of the way. When everything was completed it all looked new again and best of all it was affordable! The wife and I couldn’t be more pleased. Fact is, we have already schedule Pressure Washing Orlando again for next year! THANKS!!!!"

"We used Jeremy to replace some wood siding on our house and weâ re extremely pleased. He was professional, friendly, and was even willing to educate me along the way. The final product was very well done and the price was more than fair. I would definitely use Jeremy for future products!"

"How lucky l am to choose Marcello to build my shed! He was very conscientious and called the manufacturer for a question about the anchors. He stopped by Lowe’s to buy the right ones that he needed. He worked very hard with a partner for 5 hours. He went above and beyond to exceed my expectations. Top quality guys and I definitely will be hiring them again."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

It depends on the type of wood. The average cost to build a deck out of pressure-treated lumber is $15 to $25 per square foot, but more affordable varieties such as bamboo and cedar cost less at around $3 to $10 per square foot. However, when comparing the cost of vinyl decking versus wood decking, it’s important to also consider ongoing maintenance costs. For example, most woods require regular sealing to keep them protected against weather and rot.

Local building codes don’t specify the number of steps a deck can have before a railing is required, mainly because stair height varies widely. Most areas require decks 30 inches or higher to have a railing. While not exact, that roughly equates to four to seven steps.

PVC decking can get slippery when wet because it’s made from plastic. However, composite and wood decking can also be slippery when wet. It’s best to wear shoes with grippy soles when walking on a wet deck, no matter the material, and to be extra cautious not to slip and fall down.
