"He gave me a quote and did exactly what he said he was going to do. He was clear about to procedure and what he needed to do. It was nice and clean after the service, I didn't have to do any touch ups or clean ups. I was so happy with the results, I hired him to complete resurface my driveway."

"We played "telephone tag" for a few days which is normal when conducting business from far away, i.e., I was in Traverse City and Mark was on the other side of the state, but when we did finally connect in person I was so very glad I waited for Mark's services. He took a 23 year old treated deck that had never been cleaned and turned it in to something that looked almost new. My niece (the homeowner) was very happy. Mark brought the cleaning product and I did not have to worry about anything. (Other contractors did not offer the cleaning product.) It took three hours and twenty minutes to complete the job, but it had to be done!"

"This company has completed several different projects for me on a home restoration. Fabian Guza has been amazing. On a bathroom project, he saved me thousands of dollars by suggesting I allow him to try and polish away hard water stains that I had tried everything to remove. He saved the tile and saved me money. The tile looks wonderful. The room he laid hardwood in matches the rest of the floors perfectly. The old hardwood floors that I thought could never look like new do! In addition to all of this, Fabian has explained things to me so I understandâ no mean feat. There are several other projects and each one I have been completely satisfied with the work performed"

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

The life expectancy of deck boards varies widely based on the material, climate, and maintenance. Untreated wood boards typically last 10 to 30 years with proper care, while pressure-treated boards can last up to 50 years. Hardwoods generally outlast softwoods. Composite boards also tend to last longer than natural wood. Environmental factors like arid or humid climates can shorten a deck's lifespan. To extend the life of wood decking, it's important to consistently clean and seal it to protect against moisture, UV light, and insects.

Rot loves moisture, so deck rot typically impacts the parts of a board that stay wet. This includes the underside of boards, in addition to support posts and joists. However, any part of a board can rot, given the right conditions. 

The “best” material is in the eye of the beholder, as each common decking material boasts its pros and cons. Poured concrete is the best budget-friendly option, but composite wood brings high-grade aesthetics without breaking the bank. Wood is the most traditional material, but it requires more maintenance than some other materials. In other words, do your research before settling on a deck material to find the one that’s best for your pool.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area. 

Yes, you can attach a deck to a mobile home, but it’s important that the work be done correctly to avoid the potential for major damage to your home. Many building codes require that any additions to mobile homes—including decks—be either freestanding or have their own support structures. Getting permits may require submitting the home's original floor plan, the proposed floor plan, framing details, and more.
