"I had Tarra and Doug come out and tear down fence I had that was in bad shape and needed replacing, I have 3 dogs that try and get out fence and dig. After speaking to them I decided to put a concrete ledge at bottom of fence to help with the digging of the dogs and it has help no problems of dogs getting out of yard. After fence was completed I ask if they would build me a walkway in the back area and it was completed and I love it. They are very professional clean up area everyday before they leave and employees seem very happy and professional. I’m very happy with all the work I have had done and will use them again and I recommend them for all services. I may have them put in a deck for the pool I maybe getting. Love links and logs all will use again. They take pride in the work they do and said if I have any problems with fence call them and they will fix it."

"Crystal Clean did a truly awesome job with all of our power washing needs. The job was completed quickly and with extra care to protect our lawn and deck from the cleaning chemicals. Our roof is over 15 years old and now looks new! We are very happy with the quality work done by Clint at Crystal Clean."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface 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 essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

In most cases, there should be a small gap between the house and the deck, usually no more than ½ to ¾ of an inch. This space allows water and moisture to flow through instead of pooling against the side of your house. It also lets flashing protect your siding from runoff, which is one of the most common issues with decks.

Typically, most residential wooden decks are designed to support approximately 40 pounds per square foot, including the deck’s weight and any items placed on it. While this is fine for typical use, it is usually not enough to hold the weight of a hot tub filled with water and people. To safely support a hot tub, your wood deck will likely require reinforcement. Therefore, it’s best to have a contractor or a structural engineer assess it before hot tub installation.

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.

Both a well-constructed deck and a patio can add value to your home. Patios are generally cheaper to build but don’t offer the same aesthetics as a quality deck. Therefore, decks can be more appealing to buyers than patios, increasing a home's resale value.
