Bluewater Builders specializes in full house remodels and new construction. Every project, no matter how big or small, gets personal attention. You won’t have to go thru a long list of staff or managers to reach the contractor. I’m available directly via call, text or email to answer any questions or concerns. Whatever your project, a kitchen remodel, bathroom update or new home, I have the experience and the team to successfully complete your job. I have a strong relationship with local tradesman and vendors along with a local architect and structural engineer. These relationships help make the entire construction process smoother and often help keep the project budget down.

"Andrew ensured the project was completed in a timely manner with all work being done to our expectations. Andrew is everything you could hope for in a contractor: Knowledgeable, responsive, communicative, and respectful. Truly a man of his word with an excellent work ethic."

Decks and Porches questions, answered by experts

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

Building codes vary by location, and you should always consult local codes before planning construction. Generally speaking, however, railing requirements stipulate that decks more than 30 inches off the ground need railings for safety purposes. These railings usually need to be at least 36 inches tall, although California and Washington require rails to be 42 inches or taller.

Cutting the boards directly is one of the fastest ways to remove deck boards with hidden fasteners. Mark two parallel lines that are one-third of the total measurement on both ends and cut out the centerpiece. Then, remove the end of the board that doesn’t have a fastener. Finally, pry open the fastened side and pull it up to pop out the screw or access the fastener. This also allows you to salvage portions of boards for other projects.

If you used regular jointing sand, you can typically walk on the repaired area right away. If you used polymeric sand, wait at least 24 hours before walking on it and 48 to 72 hours before driving over it, depending on the weather. Polymeric sand needs time to fully cure and lock the pavers in place.

Aftercare includes routine cleaning, checking for water repellency, and promptly addressing any chips or peels, maintaining the deck's appearance and functionality.
