"We get a ton of “contractors” all through this development, but since Alex is a mature individual (unlike most of the guys that ring my doorbell), I listened to what he had to say. Alex pointed out the poor condition of my three attic vent louvers and gave me a fair price to replace them. He said he could do it that afternoon. I knew they were bad and, not being able to replace them myself, I told him to do it. Then we talked about washing and maybe repainting the vinyl siding. Our siding is original to the house which was built in 1986. We’ve have never cleaned it, and his price for washing was surprisingly low. I asked him to do that too. Our original red window shutters were now a faded pinkish red so I asked him to repaint those as well. He completed all that work over the next day and a half. The work quality, like his work ethic, is excellent. Now I’m considering hiring him for a few more things around the house. I recommend him highly."

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Any wood deck provides some ventilation to the area below, as is the nature of that type of deck design. However, areas that experience excessive humidity and associated moisture benefit greatly from a dedicated ventilation system in the form of strip vents. This addition helps the various wood boards contract and expand evenly throughout the years and reduces the chances of twisting, warping, and buckling.

A deck doesn’t have to be perfectly level. Many pros even recommend a gentle slope to ensure proper drainage and increase longevity. The ideal gentle slope is about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per foot away from the property, leading water away from the home to prevent pooling and reduce the risk of damage. It also minimizes rot, mold, and other moisture-related problems. 

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.

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.

You can add a roof to most decks, but you need to have it inspected first. If your deck didn’t come with a roof initially, it may not be able to handle the weight without some structural changes. You can add additional supports to your existing deck to safely add a roof, and tying your deck’s roof to an exterior wall can help add some structural stability, but remember these aren’t DIY projects and need to be left to a pro.
