"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 build a small, basic deck for $5,000, particularly if you use less expensive materials and a simple design. To stay within this budget, consider a size under 10x12 feet and use affordable materials like pressure-treated wood or cedar. While the general cost for deck building ranges from $4,350 to $12,560, with an average around $8,200, some projects can be completed for as little as $4,350. You can also save on labor costs by doing the work yourself, but be aware that mistakes could end up costing more than hiring a professional. A contractor may have a higher upfront cost, but they can ensure a safe, stable deck that will last.

If you want to make a deck cleaner from products already in your home, there are various options. The most common is to use a gentle blend of 1 gallon of warm water and 2 tablespoons of ammonia-free dish soap. You can also mix water with distilled vinegar. Sprinkling on some baking soda can help to remove mold and mildew. You can add oxygen bleach (but never damaging chlorine bleach) to the water and ammonia-free dish soap solution for something a bit stronger. 

The best and fastest way to remove paint from a deck often involves combining a chemical stripper with a pressure washer. Gel-based paint strippers are highly recommended because their thick consistency makes them less messy and easier to apply than liquid strippers. After applying the stripper to loosen the paint, you can use a pressure washer to efficiently wash away the residue. When using a pressure washer for this task, it's important to use a low pressure (under 1000 PSI) to avoid forcing too much moisture into the wood, which could lead to mildew or rot.

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.

What goes under your floating deck depends on your preferences. Some homeowners put landscaping fabric underneath their decks to prevent weeds from popping up through the boards. Others choose to build a floating deck over grass or gravel. However, it’s best not to set your deck directly on the ground. Instead, set your deck on blocks to keep it elevated enough to prevent moisture from rotting the wood.
