"I highly recommend Stained Rite! The customer service was exceptional from the moment I called, through the estimate process, to the work itself. I've had multiple companies stain and repair my deck in the past but Gary and his team were the best - and easiest - by far. I've had many compliments on my deck since the work was completed and I recommend Stained Rite to them all."

"Perfect. We have used Mr. Handy Man on four occasions to service a variety of needs: outside lights, outside light fixtures, water lines, roofing, dryer vent modification, room fan replacements, vanity replacement and inside lights. The company doesn't skip a beat from scheduling, arrivals, accomplishment of service, clean up and invoicing. They don't bring coffee and bagels."

"I hired Mr. Payne to build a roof over my deck and I was very pleased with his work. He worked with me with the cost of the project and offered the most affordable price out of all the other quotes. He was knowledgeable and accessible at all times and finished the project in a timely manner. He did exactly what I wanted and how I wanted the end result to look like. I would hire him again for future projects. Thank you."

"I closed on my home in the afternoon on a Thursday and these guys were out there Friday morning, and by Friday evening had painted my whole home, and had started ripping up the carpet to place the new flooring. This entire job was completed in four days. They came back twice to fix two little painting spots I needed fixed and did so without complaint. My next home projects are already in the planning process with Woodworxâ s. The entire crew was polite, professional, and on time every day. I was kept updated with progress, and with any information that needed to be relayed back to me, was done so in a timely manner, so that I could make a decision as to which way to go. Unless they go out of business, I will never use another contractor."

"Regi and his team did a fantastic job staining our deck, power washing our house and repairing a small hole and rotting board in our back patio door. Regi gave great service at a very reasonable price. I’ve already recommended him to neighbors and he’ll be the guy we can when we paint our interior and exterior!"

"We hired Dallas to install french doors and did a great job. We also hired him to remove and replace our daughter's floor on her front porch with tile, and did demo and repair in her back deck, that included stepping stones, woodworking, painting, and hung lights, and did a very good job. He also built 8 pressure treated benches for us, asked for input for the 1st one, and completed the rest that were perfect for the use."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Local building codes don’t specify the number of steps a deck can have before a railing is required, mainly because stair height varies widely. Most areas require decks 30 inches or higher to have a railing. While not exact, that roughly equates to four to seven steps.

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.

An above-ground pool with a deck can increase your home's value by as much as 4% to 7%, but it depends on your local climate, potential buyers, and the size and condition of your pool. Some buyers see a pool as a liability instead of a luxury, especially if it's at the end of its life span. In general, it's best to add a pool and deck to your property if it will bring you enjoyment—not because it raises the value of your home.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

The best paver for your pool deck depends on your budget, style, and how much maintenance you’re willing to invest. Granite is one of the best low-cost pavers for pool decks. It’s very slip-resistant and durable, too, making it a top pick. Travertine is a high-quality material that resists freeze-thaw cycles, looks stunning, and won’t get hot in the summer. The only downside to travertine is that it costs more than granite.
