"First off, plan extra time for rain...it rained a lot during this project.  Obviously, it is impossible to restore/stain a wet deck. 

Earl and his son were fantastic.  I will definitely use his services again.  I had a deck that was an absolute mess...to the point where I thought it might make sense to tear it down and start over.  The top railings had shifted over time and were out place and many of the deck boards had huge cracks and gouges, some to the point where I think I could have gone through them if I jumped up and down.

We contacted Earl through Angie's List to come out for a quote.  He inspected the deck, let us know that the structure was sound, and that we could go many more years before considering tearing it down.  He said he could make it look like new and gave us suggestions regarding the colors that would look best with our siding/entrance to our house.  We decided to go with a darker grey on the floor boards with white on the railings.  The second color added significant painting work to the job and increased the price from $1,600 to $2,000 but was worth it.

I handed Earl a check for the first 50% and he got to the power washing within a couple of days.  There was no break in the rain for the next week, but Earl kept us in the loop regarding where we were in the queue and when we could expect to have the job worked on.  During a 1 day break in the rain he got out to our house and painted the white vertical railings and replaced the top of the railings .  For the next week it rained almost continuously.  On the next dry day Earl and his son came out and replaced many of the floor boards and stained a first coat on the base.  The next dry day, both Earl and his son were back and completed the job.

The deck looks fantastic!!!  From it's original poor condition, I couldn't imagine it would have looked so good when completed.

Earl and his son were extremely professional, hard working, and very personable.  The final product was beyond my expectations and I will definitely give Earl a call next time I need work completed.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

While experienced DIYers may take on the challenge, hiring a licensed professional is often the best route, especially for larger or elevated structures. A local deck contractor is typically the best pro for the job, as they have specialized experience and are knowledgeable about local building codes, ensuring your deck is built safely and designed to last. Other professionals who can build a deck include general contractors and carpenters, who may be more readily available in some regions.

Decks require several inspections during and after the building process, but the specifics vary depending on where you live. Most areas mandate that decks comply with local building codes and safety regulations for the foundation, framing, and structure. Some pros recommend a footing inspection, which verifies the depth, width, and location of the various footings to ensure they offer enough foundational support.

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.

Yes. Composite decking is resistant to moisture and freezing temperatures, so it’s an ideal material to use in particularly cold or damp seasons. You can install this type of decking throughout the year since it does not warp or split in the cold.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
