"I hired Rafael to cut down huge shrubs and trim up another large shrub. He did an excellent job and removed all the brush. I felt very comfortable working with him and he explained everything in detail and did exactly as he said he would. I would hire him for a future landscaping project!"

"I cannot recommend Marco enough! My vinyl fence was damaged over the winter, and he quickly agreed to come out to give me an estimate. He identified and explained the issues that were present, and exactly the repairs needed. He was so honest and thorough, so I asked him about extending another section of my fence. I was pleasantly shocked that he offered to come back two days later to do it all! I thought I'd have to wait for weeks! The repair looks fantastic, as he perfectly matched and fitted the new pieces to the undamaged areas, and the new extension looks and feels sturdy and perfectly even. He and the crew left the area pristine and clean. I'm saving up for some other projects like a little patio and some new plantings, and these guys will be my first call!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Decks are generally more expensive to build because they require elevating and railings. The difference between decks and patios is that decks are elevated, while patios are usually on the ground level. Plus, decks are usually made of wood and need more maintenance than most patios. However, decks and patios serve the same purpose, providing outdoor space for you to enjoy.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Wood decks need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years on average. Natural wood is highly vulnerable to infiltration and damage from moisture, which can occur rapidly due to exposure to outdoor elements. You can protect your deck and maximize its lifespan by sealing it every year or two.

Composite decking boards aren't your only options for building a deck. There are several other types of materials for decks, including wood and aluminum decking. Wood decking comes in many different wood species, offering natural beauty and classy timelessness to your yard. Aluminum is a lightweight, water-resistant, and low-maintenance material that is also non-slip.

Before installing any materials under the deck for removing moisture, you should perform some prep work on the ground. Work the dirt under the deck to create a grade away from the home. A grade of at least six inches for every 10 feet works well. Do not leave a gap between the dirt and the home’s foundation where water could pool. Once you or a contractor regrades the dirt under the deck, you then can add materials over the top.
