"Communication (from the immediate response to our initial inquiry, to consistent, fast email/text responses throughout the project), and overall customer service, was fast and easy, from beginning to end. Drew and his team did a wonderful job rebuilding our front deck/porch. They were quick, efficient and so clean. The final product well exceeded our expectations, and we can't wait to work with them again. We highly recommend Overall Outdoor Services, and Drew Cahill specifically."

"James gave a free estimate for patching the roof where several roof vents were no longer in use. The work was performed the following day and it looks great. Another contractor just wanted to sell us a new roof which was clearly over repair. We also got an estimate for sealing a section of flat roof and ended up getting that work done as well. The crew was on time and efficient for both jobs. I would highly recommend them to family, friends, and others looking for roof repair."

"Jameson went over several alternative approaches with us. He bought and delivered all the materials necessary. He scheduled the job quickly and was at the site on time. Jameson worked expertly and made significant progress each day. His estimate on the time necessary to complete the job was spot on. We were both impressed with Jameson's craftsmanship. He cleaned up the project area beautifully. We are thrilled with our newly repaired deck.We hired him immediately for our next job."

"Although I was not able to hire this company because they were booked well into the next month and I needed the service done immediately, I was so impressed by Brendon's excellent customer service I will definitely hire him for my next job without question. He called me back the same day and apologized for not being able to accommodate my next day request. He then left a detailed message answering every question and concern I had left in my voicemail to him. He offered suggestions on what the job should entail, the average going rate and tips on how to prevent the issue with my pool deck pavers in the future. I highly recommend him for his professionalism, knowledge and helpfulness. Based on his reviews and booked schedule I'm sure his work is excellent too!"

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.

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.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for.
