"Shane is very reliable, fair, and communicative. He quoted my job in the Fall, promised to follow up in the Spring due to temperature conditions at that time, and was true to his word. Good quality work, too."

"A+ promptly kept the estimating appointment. I was impressed with the way Mr. Eicher described how they would prep the surfaces for the best long term job. He was honest about wood that needed to be replaced. Their estimate was not the cheapest but, as I said, I was impressed with the good job that was described to me. It was not a good job, but a most excellent job. I could not imagine a better outcome. The crew was very thorough and meticulous with their work as well as courteous. They went above and beyond to give me a perfect outcome. They also completed the project in what I consider ahead of schedule. The work area was cleaned up daily and in the end you could barely tell they had to do extensive scraping of the wood areas. They worked very hard to clean up all the chips that fell from the paint they scrapped off. I would give them the highest rating in all areas of the job. I wish all my repair and updating jobs were done as expertly as this one.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.

You typically don’t need a railing and handrails on a deck that’s less than 30 inches from the ground. However, consider adding them regardless. Railings provide additional safety for you and your guests who use your deck—plus, railings give the deck a more finished look than it would have without them.

A deck is typically attached to a house and accessed via the back door. Decks are usually constructed from wood or composite materials. A terrace, on the other hand, is a raised platform that can be attached to or detached from the house and is typically made from a hard-paved material, such as paving stones. Terraces can be built on the ground or on the roof of a home.

In many areas, a floating deck that isn’t connected to your home and stays under 200 square feet and below 30 inches in height may not need a permit. These freestanding structures are often considered low-risk, which can simplify the building process. However, building codes vary greatly based on location. Before investing in any home improvement project, check with your local permitting office for deck-building guidelines.

Coping is the material that lines the perimeter of a pool and seals the transition between the top of the pool wall and the water. Decking surrounds the poolscape and extends far beyond the water's edge to provide a safe walking and lounging area. In short, coping is the border between the decking and the pool itself.
