"We interviewed Jerey Anderson in our existing home regarding a large Trex deck that needed to be replaced at our newly purchased home. Since my wife and I were moving from a three level home to a single level home due to our handicapped needs from disability, we were very concerned about using a skilled, knowledgeable and professional contractor who would listen to our needs and concerns with modifying this project to meet our specific and customized needs. Large scale custom projects like this can be extremely scarey and worrisome to launch, especially when you have had projects in the past that have left us hanging high and dry with work that was not completed. But during the interview process, Jeremy spoke to us in a very knowledgeable manner that helped us dream with him, the exact modifications we requested. You get a read on professional people sometimes that could leave you unsure about if they would be a good fit for the dreams you plan for and need. His mannerisms, attentive listening skills and reassuring ability to explain how to complete the work in a way that took away our concerns, addressed all our questions and arrived at a very affordable price just gave us a feeling that his family run business felt like a loving father that you would go to for extremely wise and experienced advice for a very complex , scar.scarey y and concerning project. As the project unfolded, we were updated frequently with texts, consulted by phone, and sent photos of the progress. We were never unwelcome to show up at a moments notice to view the work, talk to the crew, or review the progress of out dream turning into a reality. Not only was the work being completed per his detailed contract that clearly explained the work to be done, but his attention to detail exceeded oue expectations. Even his crew worked in a very protective and respectful way that kept the work site safe, highly organized and unexpectedly clean. We would recommend Jeremy Anderson and his crew to anyone in a heartbeat. In fact, we give permission to Jeremy t to share photos of the completed work and to have you contact us regarding our experience through this process."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible to add an under-deck drainage system to an existing deck by retrofitting it to the structure. This process may require some prep work. For example, many drainage systems are installed on top of the deck joists, which would require you to remove the decking boards and railings first. To avoid this, you could opt for a below-the-joist drainage system. For best results and to ensure proper installation, it is recommended to consult a professional. A pro can inspect your deck, make any necessary repairs, and then install the drainage system correctly.

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.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

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.
