"Outstanding! I had several projects and they were able to complete them all way ahead of schedule. They repaired drywall damage from a busted water pipe, installed vinyl plank flooring, shoe mounding and baseboards, as well as secured my deck railing and steps with screws. They are very professional, punctual and I highly recommend DMC Construction."

"I had several estimates for my pool-deck.... Mike was the most professional by a looong way. Seemed engaged and excited to do what we envisioned and delivered big time. Weather got in the way towards the end.... But Mike was here himself doing finish work with snow on the ground. I could NOT RECOMMEND ENOUGH!"

"He did a great job. Kept costs low by borrowing parts from another broken window and fixed plumbing issues with simple low cost gaskets. Took broken window away for us. Took pictures and sent them to me so I could see issues and fixes. A great hire!"

"Extremely well. I live a distance from my rental property, and I felt comfortable working with Marc by phone sending me before and after photos of the work he did. I found Marc to be honest, caring, easy to work with, reliable, dependable, and reasonable in price. My tenants and I are very satisfied with his work, and would not hesitate to hire him again."

Deck Repair FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can build a deck over your outdoor HVAC unit, but you need to leave at least 5 feet of vertical clearance above the unit. If you don’t want your deck to be that high off the ground, you could build a floating deck in another part of your yard—again, as long as you leave at least 4 feet of horizontal space between the deck and your AC unit.

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.

The cost to repair a deck is between $900 and $3,500, depending on the cause and extent of the damage. For example, fixing a sinking deck caused by pest damage can cost between $200 and $600, while replacing sinking boards costs between $500 and $4,000.

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.

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.
