"I would highly recommend Robertâ s Home Improvement! We needed immediate deck repair and Carlos responded right away. When I told them our tight timeframe he was extremely accommodating and brought a crew out the same day to start working. They were fast and efficient, and everyone was so nice! Carlos was great at communicating through the whole process. They did a fantastic job and weâ re very happy with the end result. We will definitely be using them again for future projects."

"I had an emergency which was a small but urgent job. The problem was an unsafe situation and I chose Mr. Handyman because of the excellent reviews. I had a very pleasant conversation with the owner who was upfront about the cost which i very much appreciated. At the last minute, I was able to solve the issue and had to cancel my Mr. Handyman appointment. I called and spoke with the owner again and he was very gracious about the cancellation which was a surprise as he likely already had his guys on the way. I highly recommend Mr. Handyman."

"All work was outdoors. I waited for sun, rain and so far the little snow we have had to rate as excellent. They also came up with a novel way of solving an outdoor water flow problem. Service: a little problem in getting timing to mesh."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can attach a deck to a mobile home, but it’s important that the work be done correctly to avoid the potential for major damage to your home. Many building codes require that any additions to mobile homes—including decks—be either freestanding or have their own support structures. Getting permits may require submitting the home's original floor plan, the proposed floor plan, framing details, and more. 

Pressure-treated decks last 15 to 20 years on average, but with proper maintenance, you could get 40 to 50 years of value from yours. Reseal your deck every one to two years, and replace old or rotted wood as soon as possible to avoid structural damage. Where you live plays a role in the lifespan of your deck. Intense sunlight, rainfall, wind, and hail can reduce the deck’s lifespan.

While you can use various materials like sand or even just soil, gravel is widely considered the best option to put under a deck. It provides excellent drainage and is resistant to water, fire, and pests. Gravel also helps anchor the soil to prevent erosion during heavy rain and acts as a built-in weed blocker, reducing regular upkeep. Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.

It is possible to build your own deck, but it’s typically better to leave the work to a decking professional. Decks can be exceptionally complicated, especially if you want a wrap-around or second-story deck, and you don’t want to risk making an expensive or dangerous mistake. It’s usually better to hire a decking pro who can pull permits and build a structurally sound deck that will last for decades and provide the maximum return on investment.

A wood deck requires annual cleaning and regular inspections for loose or broken boards, nails, and screws. It should be refinished by applying a stain or sealer every two to three years to protect the wood from water damage, rot, mildew, and sun fading. The exact frequency can depend on the climate and the deck's exposure to sun and moisture. If your deck is painted, it will need repainting approximately every 10 years. Signs that your deck needs refinishing include faded, splintering, or warping boards.
