"Friendly and on time for appointments. Did an outstanding job powerwashing and staining my large deck. They also went out of their way to make sure the extra repairs needed were done correctly. I have had nothing but compliments on the change in the appearance of my deck."

"Working with Scott has been the most positive experience I have had in my 50+ years of home ownership. He not only installed exterior siding on our current home, he and his most competent daughter painted the inside of our house in such a thorough, careful manner. The work he has done for us is extraordinary. His businesslike, yet friendly relationship with us made completion of the projects a pleasure. He was prompt and reliable in every way. He let us know in advance of work he could not do and helped us find solutions. To top it off his prices are most reasonable for the high quality of work and the high quality of products he uses. I only hope he remains in business as long as I am a home owner. He is out "go to guy" from now on."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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 time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

Coping is the material that lines the perimeter of a pool and seals the transition between the top of the pool wall and the water. Decking surrounds the poolscape and extends far beyond the water's edge to provide a safe walking and lounging area. In short, coping is the border between the decking and the pool itself.

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Composite decking may never warp, or it may warp quickly. Several factors can influence the rate of warping, including the material's quality, installation method, and installation location. Generally speaking, high-quality materials that have been installed properly are drastically less prone to warping.
