"Jeremy took the vision of I wanted and gave us a unique piece of art. It was a wonderful experience to watch the transformation from our old deck to this wonderful new deck! I will enjoy it for many years to come. I will definitely be hiring this contractor again for other jobs. Thanks J and Z Wodworks for the wonderful experience!"

"They just did a wonderful job and did it on fairly short notice! I needed my deck painted before the end of the month, which left them 3 weeks in one of their busiest seasons. But they managed to get my project done in less than a week! I am very happy with them and will use them again!"

"If  you want to hire an experienced contractor that understands time allowance, costs, and the right way to do things, hire Jack.  He finished my kitchen renovation that another contractor left unfinished a year ago.  I called Jack to paint, trim down, and install my closet door, properly finish my engineered flooring, including 5 thresholds the original contractor left undone, build and paint all my trim work, including custom made base, window, and door trim to match the rest of my house.   Jack finished painting what was left unpainted, filled in nail holes, sanded and painted throughout my kitchen.  He installed 2 built-in shelves,  3 door locks, hung 2 heavy mirrors and a coat rack for me.  He even stacked 3 cabinets on my back kitchen wall for me to give me more storage.  My kitchen is finally completed to my satisfaction, thanks to Jack.   I am very happy.
     Jack is a likable guy.  If you are honest with him, he will be honest with you.  He is a professional at what he does and it shows.  My job took a couple of days longer than estimated, but Jack stayed true to his original cost.

"I met Jake through a local Facebook page referral. We got multiple bids on our addition that we wanted done but Jake and his team were the ones that were the most affordable for our family. Coming in well under what other companies wanted to charge us. Jake and his team are great workers and respectful to my family and property. We are grateful for Jake and his team for their willingness to take on this project in the middle of the winter, of all seasons. They took down the old porch that was behind our house and cleaned it all up in the matter of a couple of days. Weather delayed the project for a bit but they came in to do the foundation and even moved it for us when we asked to change plans. Jake and his team are very adaptable and friendly. I will update the review once it's completed."

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

Generally, a patio is more accessible than a standard deck because patios are constructed at ground level. However, decks can be made accessible by adding a wheelchair-accessible ramp, a vertical lift, or a stair lift along the entry. An ADA-compliant deck ramp costs about $3,000 on average. The additional investment will provide a much friendlier experience for your guests with movement impairments.

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 best base materials for a ground-level or floating deck are typically gravel and crushed stone (also known as landscaping rocks). These options are inexpensive, provide excellent drainage, prevent weeds, and help minimize moisture buildup, which reduces shifting and rotting. For added stability and to evenly distribute the weight, you can use concrete deck blocks or pavers. While more expensive, concrete blocks and pavers offer a sturdier base than gravel or crushed stone alone.

The most likely causes of a deck leaning to one side are damaged deck posts, soil erosion, and inadequate deck footings. If you’re not sure about the exact cause, the best option is to call a contractor who can build a deck to inspect the damage and recommend the best way forward.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
