"Gordon was fantastic. He responded quickly to my inquiry, provided a reasonable estimate, and came soon afterward to complete our large job over three different days. He expertly power washed our house, 4 decks, and stone patios, and then beautifully stained the decks with their intricate railings and painted the masonry foundation. Everything was done in a professional and excellent manner with the right equipment and high-quality stain and paint. Gordon is exceptionally hard-working, reliable, and courteous. My wife and I could not be happier with the results. We definitely want Gordon and his Tidy Deck team back in the future."

"We love working with Frank and loved his crew as well. He repaired our existing deck and also created an underdecking screened porch. He is very honest, and he works very hard to see that things are done right."

"I had Bill come out and look at my deck which was around 25 years old. Parts of the deck were rotten to the point that I had almost fallen through a rotten area. Bill took his time and described what he would do, giving me a choice of composit decking or pressure treated material. I had his detailed estimate the same day and we agreed that he would do the work He and his crew arrived at the agreed upon time and had the deck stripped down just after noon. They cleaned up all the boards that they removed and showed me any changed that they would recommend. They started the rebuild that afternoon. The work was finished in the two day period that we had agreed upon. All the building materials and debris were removed and there was no damage to my house or surrounding landscape. I would not hesitate to recomend Bill and his "Building For More" company"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Both aluminum and composite decking materials are environmentally friendly, with aluminum decking coming in as the most eco-friendly option. 

Though composite decking helps remove plastics from landfills, recycles wood, and lasts longer than traditional wood decks, it’s not recyclable and only lasts for 25 to 30 years on average. Aluminum can last well over 30 years and is almost always recyclable.

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. 

Yes, Ipe wood is a popular high-end choice for pool decking. It repels water and is naturally slip-resistant. It's not susceptible to mold, mildew, or rot, either, so it lasts longer and is cleaner and more hygienic than other popular decking materials. However, remember that due to its status, it is a very high-cost wood, and you might find that an alternative would serve you just as well for significantly less.

For a 12x20-foot (240-square-foot) deck, you can expect to pay between $7,200 and $14,400. This cost is based on a general price of $30 to $60 per square foot. The final price will depend on factors such as the decking material, design complexity, deck type, location, and local labor costs. Keep in mind that add-ons will increase the total; for example, adding an under-deck drainage system to a deck of this size could cost an additional $7,700.

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface 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 essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.
