"I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Mastercraft Maintenance And Construction Services. As a local REALTOR, I work with a lot of contractors and I wish they could all be like Brad! From start to finish Brad has been upfront, honest, and forthright about what this project needed and why. He has kept the budget in mind and recommended adding things that would add value or that 100% make sense, and when surprises have come up, (because they always do) his knowledge and calm demeanor have been refreshing and helped us make the right decision on how to handle it in the best, most cost efficient way. He keeps me informed on all stages of our project with pictures, phone calls, and texts. He and his crew has been respectful of the house, neighbors, and property. We are very happy with the quality of his workmanship and he is very easy to work with. I would recommend him 1000x's to anyone and look forward to working with him again in the future! Holly Hunter"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Composite decking might cost more upfront, but it delivers value in terms of durability. Unlike wood, composite material resists common deck problems such as rotting, fading, warping, and all the other things you don’t want a deck to do. The extra processes lead to a higher price tag, but you’ll save big in maintenance costs down the road.

Staining and sealing the underside of a deck creates a moisture barrier but traps water in the boards, quickly leading to rot. No matter how well you seal the above deck, water still gets through via nails and screw heads on the surface. Allow this water to flow naturally under the deck, where it is routed through the drainage system.

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.

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

A quality, well-maintained PVC decking can last 30 to 50 years. It’s known for being one of the most durable types of decking materials, with composite decking having a 25- to 30-year average lifespan and some softwood deckings only lasting 10 to 15 years. Luxury hardwood decks like Ipe may last longer than PVC decking, but they can cost more and require more maintenance.
