"Painters arrived exactly on time and accomplished all tasks the same day. The manually stripped the deck and applied two coats of stain. They carefully cleaned and then painted the foundation concrete as it had got dirty over the years. They also scraped, caulked and painted a large bump-out window off our living room.

"This company is great to work with! A Cut Above Carpentry is responsive, treats us like were their only customer, and I have yet to have a repair or project they couldn't help with. They've helped us on at least 1/2 dozen different service calls for repairing our rental property and our home. We have had indoor repairs completed [from painting, to tile work, to replacing electrical fixtures] and outdoor repairs [they repaired rotten wood at the windows, replaced roof shingles and trim, repaired my deck, and fixed a water leak]. If they had not discovered the leak and located the source of it we would have had major damage in the Living Room. They repaired a problematic door that my home had for years which may seem like a small issue but I had previously paid other licensed handymen and professional carpenters who had "tried" to fix it on at least 4 different occasions. After having those others come back again and again I had given up. Marty offered to give it a shot and I told him that I did not want to pay to repair it again since I had already paid others hundreds of dollars to fix it in the past. A Cut Above Carpentry was able to fix it when they were there for another repair and did so at no charge! It has now been more than 5 years without a re-occurrence. [In the past the problem popped back up within 2 - 3 months]. My only regret is that in hindsight I wish I had paid them something for that repair since they were the only ones who could fix it right, the first time. These guys are great, there is no detail overlooked from the initial phone call to the repairs to the final billing and the follow up. They even gave me the tax form, and the paperwork to support it, to apply for a energy credit when we had our insulation upgraded - another thing we didn't know we needed. When fixing the water leak from a roof vent they discovered that we had little to no insulation in the attic! The fact that they let me know without pressuring me to fix it immediately gave me the feeling that they had genuine concern for my home, rather than just how much money they could make off of me and my old house. As usual they gave me a reasonable estimate and we had the work done within two weeks (not because they couldn't do it right away but because we had to save for the unexpected repairs). They explained that they took credit cards which was a lifesaver because we determined with winter coming it was very important to do ASAP. So glad we did since it turned out to be one of the coldest winters in years and we made it through with a lower heating bill than the year before. They completed the job in no time - under budget - and left my hallway cleaner than before they began. They are always on time, communicate well, have fair prices, and excellent customer service. Everyone I have worked with is pleasant, professional, and always seem to enjoy their work. I appreciate the accurate estimates so that there are no surprises when the final bi"

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

A random orbital sander is best for sanding a deck because it is easier to handle than other power sanders and is less likely to damage the wood. Most decks are made of types of softwood, so a gentler sanding process is essential to prevent permanent blemishes. For example, belt sanders can gouge softwoods.

Composite decking requires a solid foundation, substructure, or subframe to ensure stability. This base is typically composed of posts, beams, joists, and footings. The frame's joists can be built from various materials like composite, plastic, timber, or metal, as long as the base can support the deck's weight without shifting. A professional deck builder might recommend installing the frame on a solid concrete base for added durability. The final design and materials for the substructure will depend on your budget, the type of deck, and environmental conditions.

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.

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct structures. A porch is a covered structure, usually attached to the front of a home, that offers protection from the elements. In contrast, a deck is an open, uncovered platform, often attached to the back or side of a home. Because porches have a roof, they typically require less maintenance than decks, but both features need regular cleaning and repairs to stay in good condition.

PVC decking might be long-lasting, but this synthetic material lacks​​ the natural aesthetic or sustainability of wood decking. If you want to match your decking to your new garden furniture or just freshen up the faded surface, it’s not usually possible to paint PVC decking. When comparing PVC to composite decking, PVC is pricier and more prone to warping in hot regions.
