"I had a literal “garden” growing in my gutters. Nate explained everything he would do and the solution he uses. I also had a whole house cleaning. Including garage and deck. The results are amazing. He was prompt and efficient. Will use his services again and strongly recommend."

"Bart Costello applied two coats of high quality oil-based sealer. It filled in the cracks and I'm confident that it will protect my driveway better that previous applications. Bart was on time, cleaned-up after he finished and tied a plastic stripe across the driveway. I codlin''t have asked for a better job. He is efficient, knows what he is doing, and is polite to boot. Highly recommended."

"Installed new clapboards after removing broken ones. Reworked gutters to function better; installed gutter guards also. Installed new porch lights, custom fitting to shingle shacks so as to not allow leakage into junction box behind the lights. He is an arborist as well as a fine carpenter and technician. He took off the top 25 feet of a damaged pine tree safely and professionally. He will be back to install tongue and groove inside sheathing in a custom built shed. Excellent craftsperson! Very knowledgeable about a variety of building and renovation processes."

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

To maximize the utility of space under a deck, it’s important to keep this area dry and clean. One way to prevent the area from becoming too wet is to install an under-deck draining system. This affordable home upgrade channels water away from the deck and provides usable space for storage or a functional area below a second-story deck. Not only will this be a useful maintenance upgrade, it can boost your home’s property value.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

Typically, most residential wooden decks are designed to support approximately 40 pounds per square foot, including the deck’s weight and any items placed on it. While this is fine for typical use, it is usually not enough to hold the weight of a hot tub filled with water and people. To safely support a hot tub, your wood deck will likely require reinforcement. Therefore, it’s best to have a contractor or a structural engineer assess it before hot tub installation.

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.
