"Built to Last Construction was recommended to my husband and me by his brother. They remodeled my bother-in law's kitchen and built him a beautiful deck, which is featured on their website at https://www.b2lconstruction.com. We hired them to remodel our kitchen. It turned out beautiful. Tom even built pull out drawers for my cupboard panty and added a heat vent along the floor. The extra time and detail they took to get it just right was amazing. I recommended them to a friend who is keeping them busy with projects at her home. My friend recommended them to someone else who has had a hard time finding someone to update her deck. She will not be disappointed."

"Guy can really do it all. Heâ s my first call when we have an issue at a rental that needs to be fixed quickly or at an Airbnb when it needs to get done perfectly! Iâ ve used him more for repairs but seeing his workmanship, Iâ d use him for renovations as well. I trust him in our house, heâ s always more than fair and honest."

"Easy to work with. Excellent quality workmanship & work ethic. Flexible in schedule as was I, so we got on VERY well. Always felt safe & comfortable with them in & around my home - not a shady char. in the bunch! They even handled a few little "side job" repairs at very reasonable price. I was delighted to learn they do more than just decks, so I will be hiring them again for some future projects I have in mind. Was happy to find somebody who considered my budget as well as his own. Also very pleased that they kept their work area cleaned at the end of each day, & minimized any damage to my yard/landscaping. Also noted they followed safety rules for my protection as well as their own. I can't say enough good things about this group. Actually I thought I did say al these good things about Bear Builders right after they finished up last fall, but I guess my customer review must have gotten eaten by the "cyber zombies" or otherwise disappeared. In short, I don't see how you can go wrong if you hire Bear Builders for things in their repertory of services. I am very happy to have found somebody as easy to work with like Bear Builders."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

Yes, you can draw your own deck plans in many cases. However, you must know your local building codes and be familiar with carpentry principles. Even then, it's always best to run your plans by a professional contractor with experience building decks, whether you choose to DIY some of the build or not.

Before installing a new railing, check the condition of the deck frame and joists, especially around the perimeter where posts attach. If boards are loose, soft, or show signs of rot, the structure may need repair. A deck pro can inspect your framing to confirm it meets load-bearing requirements.

The cost to repair a deck is between $900 and $3,500, depending on the cause and extent of the damage. For example, fixing a sinking deck caused by pest damage can cost between $200 and $600, while replacing sinking boards costs between $500 and $4,000.

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.
