"Easy to visit with. Answered questions I had. Work involved more expensive on the deck than first thought. Scott was great to call me and showed me what was needed and why. The deck turned out fantastic & went well with new siding we'd just done. Would call them again for a project.. Very professional.."

"Very professional and good communication. In a recent storm one of my downspouts became disconnected from my gutters. Being that I live in a split level and this was in about the most inconvenient spot( an I am getting older and seemingly more clumsy), I decided to have someone do the job. A&B reached out to me very quickly and had an opening to get me in same day. Keep in mind this was the middle of January shortly after a winter storm. They were able to quickly get this job done despite the difficult weather and snow on the ground and for a fair price. Throughout they were very communicative, I knew exactly where they were and when they would be arriving. In fact, when I went to just check in with them, they had already finished and Steve was going the extra mile with tidying up and making sure everything was right for a repair that would last. Would definitely recommend for handyman jobs!"

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.

Before installing any materials under the deck for removing moisture, you should perform some prep work on the ground. Work the dirt under the deck to create a grade away from the home. A grade of at least six inches for every 10 feet works well. Do not leave a gap between the dirt and the home’s foundation where water could pool. Once you or a contractor regrades the dirt under the deck, you then can add materials over the top.

Any wood deck provides some ventilation to the area below, as is the nature of that type of deck design. However, areas that experience excessive humidity and associated moisture benefit greatly from a dedicated ventilation system in the form of strip vents. This addition helps the various wood boards contract and expand evenly throughout the years and reduces the chances of twisting, warping, and buckling.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

The problems with composite decking include a high rate of expansion and contraction from temperature swings. This characteristic can cause boards to split, delaminate, or peel. In addition, significant movement can cause shrinking, warping, twisting, and bending. For this reason, you should minimize moisture and ensure proper airflow below your deck.
