"Job: I have a huge, 3 level deck with seating, flower boxes, stairs, plenty of railing and a trellis. I needed several boards replaced and the whole deck stained. Seal Strong worked well with me in making sure that everything looked exaclty how I liked it. I am very picky and overall they did a very nice job staining and repairing my deck. They were professional and courteous. I would hire them again and recommend them to others. I am hopeful the pre-treatment will extend the stain and outlive the warranty. They will come back to restain, maintenance for a nominal fee."

"They did a wonderful job. Elias is a man of his word. They installed a deck and large stone bench in our backyard and the work is very good. I absolutely love the bench and the guys that came to do the work were professional and courteous. I wish I could upload pictures of the before and after because it really is incredible. They do incredible work so I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to have pavers installed."

"Absolutely phenomenal experience with Indian River Soft wash LLC. From the prompt estimate, to the completion of work, every aspect of the project was top notch. The business owner even did a complete walk through with me afterwards. I could not recommend this business more. My home, driveway, and pool enclosure look brand new and truly could not believe the end result."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

Space deck handrail posts four to six feet apart. If the posts are more than six feet apart, the railing will be less able to withstand lateral forces and is more susceptible to breaking. Additionally, railing posts that are more than six feet apart may not be up to code, and you may face fines and be required to reinstall the posts to bring them up to code.

Whether you need a permit depends on the deck design and local regulations. Most areas mandate a building permit if the deck is over a specific height or if it's attached to a pre-existing structure. Shorter, freestanding decks may not require a permit, but you should check with local zoning ordinances and your homeowners association for specifics.

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.

A deck doesn’t have to be perfectly level. Many pros even recommend a gentle slope to ensure proper drainage and increase longevity. The ideal gentle slope is about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per foot away from the property, leading water away from the home to prevent pooling and reduce the risk of damage. It also minimizes rot, mold, and other moisture-related problems.
