"Darryl, the young man doing the job, called and asked if he could do the job earlier than originally set for, and of course, I said definitely. Upon his arrival, he checked to see what material would be needed. In no time he was back with materials to repair the deck. He did a fantastic job with the repairs ( rotted wood replaced, and brace to shore up rail), he then stained the deck. I now have a safe and fantastic looking deck. Thanks Darryl for your patience with the many questions I asked."

"They did a really good job and they stand behind their work. The prices are competitive and they take pride in their work. I had a really old front door that was not insulated and they put in a new one with plenty of insulation. They also put in a new storm door and a garage side door that meant making a new doorway that's sealed properly. They answered all my questions and were respectful of the property"

"Nabil Blaik's Fence Staining and Pressure Washing was one of the best companies I have ever worked with. He was very respectful, honest and professional. The job was done in a very timely manner. He went above and beyond to make sure I was completely satisfied with the project. I wish we could have more individuals like him in this world. He takes pride in his work, and has the highest integrity. I would definitely recommended him to anyone who needs their houses or decks taken care of. My deck looks brand new. Completely satisfied."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

When building a deck, #2 grade lumber is a go-to for several reasons. It’s strong, budget-friendly, and works well for most framing and decking needs. But upgrading to #1 or Appearance Grade can give your deck that extra visual edge if you're after a cleaner, more polished look for high-visibility spots.

Whether you need a permit depends on the deck design and local regulations. Most areas mandate a building permit if the deck is over a specific height or if it's attached to a pre-existing structure. Shorter, freestanding decks may not require a permit, but you should check with local zoning ordinances and your homeowners association for specifics.

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. 

Composite decking requires a solid foundation, substructure, or subframe to ensure stability. This base is typically composed of posts, beams, joists, and footings. The frame's joists can be built from various materials like composite, plastic, timber, or metal, as long as the base can support the deck's weight without shifting. A professional deck builder might recommend installing the frame on a solid concrete base for added durability. The final design and materials for the substructure will depend on your budget, the type of deck, and environmental conditions.

Rotting wood, loose railings, or unstable stairs may indicate a need for expertise.
