"Ron told us what the work would cost and when it would get done. When the work was interrupted by rain Ron covered the work with waterproof sheets and returned the next day. Excellent work at a fair price. Highly recommended"

"Great experience with this company from start to finish. They were lower in price to a competitor and the salesperson was very knowlegable and professional in his approach. 3M products are what they use, high quality brand. Installation was scheduled very quickly and the job was done in a few hours with no fuss! Great company and I will recommend Total Shield Protection to my neighbors and friends!"

"they were very professional. they were on time, explained what they were going to do, made sure I was understanding. They did an excellent job on staining my lanai deck after helping remove furniture, pressure washing, and staining and helping put furniture also back. I would highly recommend them for your deck needs. There price was very fair and they didn't add anything. Great experience with father and son. Barbara A, Cape Coral"

"Russell & his crew (Paul & Dante) did an outstanding job on the exterior of our home & shed Russell is extremely polite, very detailed, great communicator, talented & hard working individual He has all the qualities you as a homeowner look for in hiring someone to do a project at your home I knew everyday what was going to be accomplished, who would be on our property and what time they would be arriving & expected to be leaving They cleaned up after each day’s work and worked in very hot weather, luckily the two weeks where we had no rain. The workmanship is excellent and Russell explained how he would repair/replace the exterior window sill and rusted border panels so rust would not reoccur. I highly recommend Fletcher Quality Finish and we will be hiring him to do some interior projects as well"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Floating decks are a cost-effective and versatile option, but they come with some compromises. Since they sit on smaller footings instead of being deeply anchored, they’re more likely to shift over time, especially in areas with heavy rainfall or freeze-thaw conditions. Their low-to-the-ground design makes them more susceptible to moisture buildup and potential water damage.

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint. 

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. 

When installing deck boards, screws are generally a better option than nails. Screws offer superior holding strength over time, keeping the boards securely in place. In contrast, nails are more likely to pop out, which can create a tripping hazard. While you can use either, we recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws. To minimize the risk of cracking the wood, it's a good practice to drill small pilot holes before driving the screws into the deck joists.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
