"They were on time, polite and easy to work with. They readily answered any questions we had and did a thorough job of cleaning our roof, gutter fascia and soffits, sidewalk, and driveway. They finished with sanding and applying two coats of driveway sealer. We would hire them again!"

"I was able to hire the first company that called me back. Their timing and pricing were great. Not only did Steve explain the process of power washing the exterior, he also stressed how important it is to also do the roof. My mother was over the moon with Steve's service. We will be establishing a schedule for future power washings. I highly recommend Steve and Pristine Power Washing without a doubt."

"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"

Deck Maintenance 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.

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.

What goes under your floating deck depends on your preferences. Some homeowners put landscaping fabric underneath their decks to prevent weeds from popping up through the boards. Others choose to build a floating deck over grass or gravel. However, it’s best not to set your deck directly on the ground. Instead, set your deck on blocks to keep it elevated enough to prevent moisture from rotting the wood.

Yes, it’s definitely possible to build a pergola on an existing deck. All you need to do is attach the pergola support beams to the deck’s joists and build up from there. Beware that mistakes can damage your deck, so if you’re at all unsure of the process, play it safe and hire a pro for your custom build.

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.
