"Aaron is a great rep, showing the products and prices, terrific on both. Easy terms financing. Set the installation for the next week. Kristoffer did beautiful work with the luxury vinyl tiles we chose. He came to our home at the promised time. He listen to our questions and answered all of them. Very experienced and very clean with every aspect. Excellent products material and trim finishes. Outstanding. I recommend this company for all of the flooring needs you have.

"Active Home Savers did an amazing job on my lawn. They took care of everythingâ mowing, maintenance, weed whacking, edging, and cleanup. The mowing was perfect, with even cuts that made my lawn look great. They were thorough with maintenance, ensuring my grass stayed healthy. The weed whacking and edging were done with precision, leaving clean lines around my garden beds and walkways. Cleanup was spotless, and the crew was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. I'm very happy with their work and highly recommend them for reliable lawn care."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Materials for a second-story deck must be weather- and rot-resistant, though the specific choices will largely be determined by your budget and style preference. Pressure-treated wood is on the lower end of the price scale, but it can be customized and stained the way you like it. Composite, on the other hand, is pricier for installation and has fewer options for customization, but you’ll save money and time in the long run because it requires little maintenance.

Covering your deck with a breathable tarp can protect it from snow, ice, and cold winter temperatures. This is a good winterizing solution if you don’t plan to use your deck at all during the colder months. However, it might be best to skip the tarp if you’ll still be walking on your deck or using it in a limited capacity.

Any wood deck provides some ventilation to the area below, as is the nature of that type of deck design. However, areas that experience excessive humidity and associated moisture benefit greatly from a dedicated ventilation system in the form of strip vents. This addition helps the various wood boards contract and expand evenly throughout the years and reduces the chances of twisting, warping, and buckling.

Yes, it is possible to build a small, basic deck for $5,000, particularly if you use less expensive materials and a simple design. To stay within this budget, consider a size under 10x12 feet and use affordable materials like pressure-treated wood or cedar. While the general cost for deck building ranges from $4,350 to $12,560, with an average around $8,200, some projects can be completed for as little as $4,350. You can also save on labor costs by doing the work yourself, but be aware that mistakes could end up costing more than hiring a professional. A contractor may have a higher upfront cost, but they can ensure a safe, stable deck that will last.

While you can use various materials like sand or even just soil, gravel is widely considered the best option to put under a deck. It provides excellent drainage and is resistant to water, fire, and pests. Gravel also helps anchor the soil to prevent erosion during heavy rain and acts as a built-in weed blocker, reducing regular upkeep. Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.
