"SKM Property Maintenance (and Dalton specifically) took on what no other decking company wanted to touch. I already had a deck and just needed some fabrication/modification to it. Doug came over and understood what I needed. Dalton came back a couple weeks later to complete the job and I couldn't be happier. I definitely recommend and would hire them again."

"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"

"My roof concerns were very urgent and I called them right after purchasing the Big Deal. My pipe collar had completely disintegrated off so I needed a new pipe collar. When I called, he told me that was not part of the Big Deal and he told me to call back to the office. It was clear that what I needed would be more than original $149 because what I was asking for was not a part of the Big Deal. I hired someone else because it is going to rain soon and I needed it fixed as soon as possible. The company I hired is charging me less than $149! The guy at MZK Home Improvement & Roofing was nice enough and they were very responsive, but it surprised me that I would have to call back to see how much more it would be. I don’t want to give them a bad rating because there may be responsibly on both ends. Maybe I didn’t read the Big Deal well enough, but I was disappointed because I needed the service as soon as possible and I ended up with a better deal with another company."

Deck Maintenance questions, 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.

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.

Your deck may pop, and your neighbor’s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it’s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another.

There are several perks to building a deck around your inground or above-ground pool. Specifically, building a deck around a pool gives you space to lounge and sunbathe, easy access to monitor kids in the pool, extra room for entertaining and dining, an anti-slip surface for post-pool fun, and enhanced aesthetics.

No, termites do not eat Trex or any other composite decking brand. Termites eat cellulose, of which composite decking like Trex contains very little compared to natural wood. This feature can help justify the higher Trex decking costs if you live in an area with abundant termites.
