"Rick is a Master Craftsman and artist. He built me a 740 sq ft deck, to replace an aging smaller deck. His eye for detail is impeccable. I described a picture in my head and he built it. I will enjoy the deck and remember the time he took to make sure EVERYTHING was right, He provided a detailed quote so I could see where my money was going. Worth every cent !"

"Cody and his crew of three built a beautiful new deck for me! Canâ t stop looking at the new deck which replaced the one built in 1995. Cody updated the deck to code put railing all around even on the steps. Itâ s just beyond my expectations. The new deck looks fancy compared to the old one. I would definitely recommend Cody and his boys for a quality deck I can now enjoy using again!!!! Hats off to Cody and the boys.. quality workâ ¦ canâ t ask for more"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, an elevated deck can increase a home's resale value. Homeowners can expect a 65% return on investment from the cost of a second-story deck installation. For example, if you spend $5,000 to install a second-story deck, that deck will add $3,250 to the value of your home.

In most cases, your deck will need some form of deck footing to hold it in place, preventing moisture from rotting your wood and decreasing your deck’s lifespan. Concrete deck blocks are the most common type of footing for floating decks. Some homeowners use ground-level deck footings. For added security, consider digging and laying your ground-level footings below ground.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

The cost to build a second-story deck averages $4,800, though the actual price could range as low as $420 to upwards of $16,000. While labor costs range between 35% and 50% of the total project cost, the materials and complexity of design will ultimately lead you to save or spend more money on this home addition.

Covering your deck with a breathable tarp can protect it from snow, ice, and cold winter temperatures. This is a good winterizing solution if you don’t plan to use your deck at all during the colder months. However, it might be best to skip the tarp if you’ll still be walking on your deck or using it in a limited capacity.
