"Did a great job on my backyard deck. I was surprised at how attention to detail and he Damian really took the time to do an actually masterful job. I was very pleasantly happy with his service, especially as he was very knowledgeable with all my questions throughout the project. I will call him again in the future for any home improvements, definitely."

"Second time I've used Stohl. Project went well. Finished on time in 2 1/2 days. Very picky about his work. If you want the equivelant of a $69 car paint job call someone else. If you want quality, reliability, and a clean house, call him."

"Jerry, the owner was quick to respond and very personable when I first contacted him for a quote to install a wood privacy fence, he sent one of his guys (Dan) out to measure the same day to give me an accurate quote. Dan was personable and we went over my options on where to install fence. Jerry the owner got back to me the same day with an accurate detailed quote and hired his company. Within a week my fence was being installed. The two men installing the fence were fantastic, Scott and Dan worked continuously all day and were mindful of my landscaping and making sure I was happy throughout the install of the fence. The professionalism and knowledge of the two were outstanding. I find myself looking for projects around my house so I can hire Jerry and his crew again. I completely and highly recommended this company for any project/job around your home. Outstanding company, owner and crew. Ten thumbs up. ð"

"Things went very well. Chase came out on short notice, he was pleasant and courteous. He went right to work and cleared our gutters, including clean up of the debris. Before ending he went above and beyond by offering to test each downspout for clearance. With great pricing compared to others and excellent service I would highly recommend him for your yearly gutter cleaning/maintenance. Thanks chase!"

"Company was hired for a small remove and replace split rail job. Joe came out, gave us a reasonable quote and date for the job. Joe and his crew came out as scheduled, work hard and did a very meticulous job. We signed a contract for another job (service on deck). Would highly recommend this company."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible to build a small, basic deck for $5,000, particularly if you use less expensive materials and a simple design. To stay within this budget, consider a size under 10x12 feet and use affordable materials like pressure-treated wood or cedar. While the general cost for deck building ranges from $4,350 to $12,560, with an average around $8,200, some projects can be completed for as little as $4,350. You can also save on labor costs by doing the work yourself, but be aware that mistakes could end up costing more than hiring a professional. A contractor may have a higher upfront cost, but they can ensure a safe, stable deck that will last.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

What goes under your floating deck depends on your preferences. Some homeowners put landscaping fabric underneath their decks to prevent weeds from popping up through the boards. Others choose to build a floating deck over grass or gravel. However, it’s best not to set your deck directly on the ground. Instead, set your deck on blocks to keep it elevated enough to prevent moisture from rotting the wood.

Both deck footings and deck posts help prop up your deck. However, footings are the bottommost parts of a deck that touch the ground. They’re usually made of concrete. Posts are pieces of wood that attach to the top of the footings with brackets. They run upwards and connect to the underside of your deck to support its weight.

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint.
