"Gutters fell off during a storm, KTB came and was able to replace the gutters! They replaced the gutters around the whole house. We had a board above the garage that was starting to ruin, and they were able to replace it. Hard working, very commutative, kept giving me updates. Got estimate and work started. Very quick turnaround. Already have them scheduled again with some deck work! Definitely recommend!"

"Had conversation w/ Dallas (nice lady) about wood fence cleaning- Said power washing if no previous paint or stain; power strip if there was. My 4yr old cedar fence no previous pain or stain- so based on description, I opted for power wash. Results- when dried, fence still gray- even tho stressed up front wanted tan cedar color returned. Called Dallas, they sent Tyler out- fence looks GREAT now! Thanks Moore Exteriors for making it right :<)"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.

PVC decking can get slippery when wet because it’s made from plastic. However, composite and wood decking can also be slippery when wet. It’s best to wear shoes with grippy soles when walking on a wet deck, no matter the material, and to be extra cautious not to slip and fall down.

A deck that isn’t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don’t need deck stairs. Some don’t even require permits. Generally speaking, building a floating deck is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that’s connected to your home.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation.
