"In October 2021 we had our 30-year-old deck and front porch washed, sanded and stained by Timber Seal. Our deck, especially, was really showing its age and I never expected our deck and porch to look as good as new, but they came really close. We are amazed at how good our deck and porch look and are very pleased with the results. From Greg who came out to give the estimate, to Tracy and Michelle in the office and Jeff, Herb and Eric on the work crew, everyone was helpful, professional and respectful of our home. Since I had not seen color samples prior to our project, I trusted Tracy and Michelleâ  s advice when choosing a stain color that would look best on our home and it looks fantastic! I especially appreciated how careful Jeff, Herb and Eric were when washing, sanding and stainingâ ¦ no damage to screens, no stain on brick, siding or fascia, and plants were covered. I would definitely recommend Timber Seal for your deck maintenance project and hope to use them again in the future. R. Sanchez St John, IN"

"What a great experience! Bill kept us in the loop throughout the whole job explaining each step and where he was at each day until complete. We had new porch posts and railing installed along with our deck power washed, sanded and repainted and other areas on the house repainted. His work is impeccable and we would definitely hire him again. In fact, our neighbors were so impressed with his work they intend to hire him also!! Thx you Bill"

"Eric and his people are very professional.  Eric is very nice and promptly to our request.  He fixed our roof on last Saturday since it was raining on Sunday. He also gave us good advice about our roof maintenance.  The fixing price he gave is very reasonable.  We will definitely use him when we replace our roof next time and recommend him to our friends as well.

"They arrived on time and first power washed the house exterior.
They replaced stucco and trim boards that were in poor shape, installed new boards, scraped old paint, nailed back  a falling soffit trim,  primed, caulked,  and painted the house. They secured a deck post that was off center, and installed a new garage door trim segment.  Upon completing the entire exterior painting; they washed the exterior window panes, and cleaned up -- all done with a positive attitude.  They did a great job. The house looks very nice."

"I purchased the $499 Deck Restoration Big Deal. Overall, I was not that pleased with it. It took a lot of effort to schedule- lots of messages back and forth. Then they were an hour late on the day he was scheduled to stain. The workers were polite and quality of the work was adequate, but not great. They power-washed on day one and then came back and stained the next day. The worker was on his cell phone as he was staining, which I thought unprofessional. There were certain higher traffic areas that could have used a second coat, or possibly more extensive prep work, but they seemed there simply to stain, not and quot;restoreand quot;, the deck as the name of the big deal indicated.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.

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.

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. 

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct structures. A porch is a covered structure, usually attached to the front of a home, that offers protection from the elements. In contrast, a deck is an open, uncovered platform, often attached to the back or side of a home. Because porches have a roof, they typically require less maintenance than decks, but both features need regular cleaning and repairs to stay in good condition.

Materials for a second-story deck must be weather- and rot-resistant, though the specific choices will largely be determined by your budget and style preference. Pressure-treated wood is on the lower end of the price scale, but it can be customized and stained the way you like it. Composite, on the other hand, is pricier for installation and has fewer options for customization, but you’ll save money and time in the long run because it requires little maintenance.
