"RICARDO IS AMAZING. AMAZING IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT. He did the paint for the inside of our house and everyone that has been in our house says it looks brand new!!! I can’t recommend this guy enough!!! He is very honest and straightforward. We are first time homebuyers and not at all handy in terms of maintenance but Ricardo helped us with our interior painting, broken door, deck, and so many other little things!!! I had a bunch of quotes from other painters but went with Ricardo because he was so honest what will look good for our house. Very responsive and friendly!! Very trustworthy!! Thanks, Ricardo!!! You helped us so much!"

"Brennan and team did an amazing job constructing our new pool deck and repairing the existing decks. They were very professional and always communicated when they would be onsite. They did great work installing cable railing which modernized the whole look of the deck. We are very happy with the results and would hire B. Lagrassa Construction again!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible to add an under-deck drainage system to an existing deck by retrofitting it to the structure. This process may require some prep work. For example, many drainage systems are installed on top of the deck joists, which would require you to remove the decking boards and railings first. To avoid this, you could opt for a below-the-joist drainage system. For best results and to ensure proper installation, it is recommended to consult a professional. A pro can inspect your deck, make any necessary repairs, and then install the drainage system correctly.

No, your deck will not rot under artificial grass as long as it is installed properly. When installed correctly, the artificial grass features a drainage system that prevents rotting. Simply laying artificial grass on top of the decking without proper installation will not lead to an effective drainage system that prevents rotting.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

Whether composite decking is better than wood depends on your priorities, especially regarding budget and maintenance. Composite decking offers superior longevity (30 to 50 years) and durability, and it is low-maintenance, requiring no sanding, staining, or sealing. In contrast, wood decks typically last 10 to 30 years and need refinishing every few years. While the upfront cost of composite is higher than wood, the reduced maintenance can lead to long-term savings. If a lower initial cost is the primary factor, wood is the more affordable choice.

Most building codes list a minimum width of 36 inches and a maximum height of 7¾ inches. However, for the most comfort and spaciousness, you’ll want to aim for a width of at least 48 inches and a height of 7 inches. Again, it’s always a good idea to base your numbers off steps that you already use comfortably.
