"We had a very positive experience working with Five Star Deck Services. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough of the finished work, their team was professional, transparent with pricing, and incredibly thorough. They inspected, recommended replacement boards, cleaned the entire deck (even the spaces between the boards), sanded and then stained the deck in “ rustic oak” which blended in perfectly. They were meticulous in paying close attention to every detail—from structural repairs down to the final staining. The crew was timely, personable, and left the worksite spotless. If you need deck repairs and/or restoration, you need not look any further than this company. They take pride in their work. I will be using them from now on. I highly recommend them!"

"Mr. Jerome called, emailed, and texted promptly. He arrived on time to give me a quote for the repairs of my front sidewalk. We scheduled an install day for Friday, and he stopped by a day early to neatly cut out the bad sections. On Friday the team arrived a bit early and got right to work. They were done within a few hours, and I'm very satisfied with the result."

"Marty who owns Home Deck inc was responded very quickly to the request for an estimate, he reviewed the work and chatted with me so that he fully understood what I wanted. He provided me with several suggestions on how to best repair the deck including options to either go with more expensive solutions that entailed more work but would last longer as well as simpler solutions that would perhaps be good for 5-10 years. He responded to all of my questions with very good explanations and also went over the pros and cons of other ideas that I had in mind. His communication was excellent and he forewarned me of a delay due to the late delivery of some materials. However, he completed the job on the same day as scheduled. I felt very comfortable with his knowledge and would definitely use him again."

"We needed our deck power-washed and stained. The workman called and came the next day. I asked him if he could also power wash the siding. He gave me an estimate for all the work to be done, I agreed (in writing) and he set to work. He did all of the power washing that afternoon. We agreed on a stain color. He returned the next day to do the staining, which required several coats. Mr. McGavin also was there. The deck looks great and the siding is much cleaner. The men were both pleasant and careful about covering the windows and siding. I would use McGavin again."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

When building an outdoor or deck gate, it's crucial to use durable wood that can withstand harsh weather conditions like sunlight, rain, wind, and snow. Redwood and cedar are excellent choices as they naturally resist decay. While redwood is considered more elegant, cedar is a more affordable option. Other suitable woods include oak and pressure-treated pine, which is specifically treated to resist rot. Although some softwoods like pine are popular, untreated softwoods such as pine and spruce should generally be avoided for outdoor projects because they are susceptible to damage from water, rot, and the sun. Ultimately, it's wise to consider your local climate when selecting the right wood for your gate.

Generally, a patio is more accessible than a standard deck because patios are constructed at ground level. However, decks can be made accessible by adding a wheelchair-accessible ramp, a vertical lift, or a stair lift along the entry. An ADA-compliant deck ramp costs about $3,000 on average. The additional investment will provide a much friendlier experience for your guests with movement impairments.

How long it takes to install composite decking depends on the size of the decking material, the skills of the person installing the deck, the number of people helping, and how much prep work needs to be done before you can begin. Generally speaking, it takes anywhere from a few days to several weeks to build a composite deck.

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.

Deck boards should be spaced no more than three-eighths of an inch apart. This is enough space to allow water and small debris to pass through without collecting on the surface, but not enough to create a tripping hazard. Certain materials, like pressure-treated wood, shrink over time, so they may need less space at installation.
