"I am very pleased with SKM maintenance who showed me what they were made of when things got tight. Professionalism, Proficiency and Efficiency. I knew I had a tight deadline to meet. My deck was scheduled for staining at the end of the week but had structural damage that needed repair. From the moment I spoke to Linda the office manager, I was hopeful as she set the tone of the company and pleasantly gave me a brief outline of the process of getting an estimation. Within a day, Doug, one of the owners, was at my home evaluating the deck. I was impressed when he pointed out a few areas that needed to be corrected (that I didn’t recognize) and offered some solid suggestions. Furthermore, when I mentioned “the deadline “he didn’t flinch and stated they had an ample workforce…. Hmm. Once he left, I had a detailed written estimate with a very reasonable price!! But then life hits…. The next day scheduled for the repair to begin, it rained. Unfortunately, the day after that the repair person had a family emergency and couldn’t come. That’s when the calls started coming from Linda and Doug and arrangements were being made and within an hour another person was coming out to do the repair. Although it was cloudy … Paul showed up and said let’s see what happens…. He made his assessment, discussed the plan with me, went and picked up the material and within a couple of hours my deck was brand new!!! SKM Maintenance proved to be such an exemplary service provider, offering an experience that left me completely satisfied. Their ability to manage unforeseen obstacles reflected their commitment to client care, and their attention to detail transformed my deck into a space that feels brand new. The skills and professionalism shown by all the staff of SKM were impressive, such that I have already initiated a second project Thank you SKM!!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The best material for your deck depends on several factors, including your budget, location, aesthetic preferences, and the level of maintenance you’re willing to do. Wood decking, like redwood, ipe, cedar, and pine, lasts the longest, but it’s more expensive and requires more upkeep than composite and synthetic decking.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

Pressure-treated decking may be worth it if you want a natural, insect- and rot-resistant decking material that will last for decades with proper maintenance. As such, it’s a much better option than untreated pine. Alternative wood decking materials like cedar and redwood tend to be less durable and more expensive. Some homeowners prefer composite decking, which is a low-maintenance alternative to wood but is also more costly.

Both a well-constructed deck and a patio can add value to your home. Patios are generally cheaper to build but don’t offer the same aesthetics as a quality deck. Therefore, decks can be more appealing to buyers than patios, increasing a home's resale value.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.
