"Great Finishes did a great job. They showed up on time and did what they said they would do, and more. And they followed up a few days later to do some minor touch up work. Our floor had grown a bit tired and dingy over the years as kids and grandkids tracked in dirt, but Wes and his experienced crew brought it back to life. And they were also helpful with advice on how to keep the floor looking great going forward. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Great Finishes. Old fashioned customer service and professionalism are not dead. I recommend them highly."

Customers say: True professional

"Jesus was a true professional! I needed a few repairs on my deck and some renovation and he and his partner not only made the necessary repairs but made my deck look like new! On top of that, he did it days before 4th July weekend allowing us to have our BBQ on our newly Reno Deck! He is a must hire for deck repairs/installations and any other repairs around the house. Looking forward to future projects with Jesus! He’s a keeper and should be recommended to all. Thanks Jesus for a great job!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Both deck footings and deck posts help prop up your deck. However, footings are the bottommost parts of a deck that touch the ground. They’re usually made of concrete. Posts are pieces of wood that attach to the top of the footings with brackets. They run upwards and connect to the underside of your deck to support its weight.

Whether composite decking is better than wood depends on your priorities, especially regarding budget and maintenance. Composite decking offers superior longevity (30 to 50 years) and durability, and it is low-maintenance, requiring no sanding, staining, or sealing. In contrast, wood decks typically last 10 to 30 years and need refinishing every few years. While the upfront cost of composite is higher than wood, the reduced maintenance can lead to long-term savings. If a lower initial cost is the primary factor, wood is the more affordable choice.

Yes, it is generally safe to have a fire pit on a deck, but you must adhere to building codes and take several safety precautions. For both built-in and freestanding models, you must use a heat-resistant barrier, such as a fire pit pad or heat shield, between the pit and the deck. Additionally, consider the weight of the fire pit and ensure your deck can structurally support it, reinforcing it if necessary. The fire pit must also be positioned a safe distance from your house, particularly from materials like vinyl siding, to prevent heat damage.

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.

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.
