"5 star service all the way! Did all the work and then some. Did the house, pool deck, pool cage, driveway, and sidewalk. The house paint looks new now! Did extras "while I was there anyway" - the decorative rocks in front (they look great now) the brick retention wall outside along the pool deck ( it looks new now!) and the postal box post (it looks new now too)"

"We had 2 sheds damaged in a storm by a fallen tree. I had sent a request to 2 other contractors via Home Advisor but received no response from them. I started to send a bad review about them to Home Advisor, but saw another contractor was now listed, being Decked Out. I sent him a request and heard from him the next morning. Boy are we glad the others did not respond! He just finished the job and I will call for other work as needed and I will be referring him to all that need work!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The best base materials for a ground-level or floating deck are typically gravel and crushed stone (also known as landscaping rocks). These options are inexpensive, provide excellent drainage, prevent weeds, and help minimize moisture buildup, which reduces shifting and rotting. For added stability and to evenly distribute the weight, you can use concrete deck blocks or pavers. While more expensive, concrete blocks and pavers offer a sturdier base than gravel or crushed stone alone.

A deck that isn’t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don’t need deck stairs. Some don’t even require permits. Generally speaking, building a floating deck is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that’s connected to your home.

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

Yes. Composite decking is resistant to moisture and freezing temperatures, so it’s an ideal material to use in particularly cold or damp seasons. You can install this type of decking throughout the year since it does not warp or split in the cold.
