"I could not be happier with the final product! The first pic is the old bathroom from the 60s when the house was built. The rest are the final rebuild and it looks great. I would highly recommend VMK Remodeling for any project that you might have. I am also going to get a bid on redoing the deck on the back of the house as Vince's company does decks as well! Thanks to his great crew as well, great people to work with."

"Steve was very professional and easy to talk to abount what was needed and he understand my concerns. He worked tirelessly to find the cause of my problem. I have to co sult with the company that install my circuit box for the solar panels and if that does not fix my problem I will certainly call Steve back. Regardless, I will be calling Steve for other projects in the future. Great job at finding the cause of my problem."

"DTR Farms were quick and reliable. We had a bad leak in our main line, located under our concrete/asphalt carport leading into our home under our deck. They came out, ON A WEEKEND to find the issue and got busy the next day to fix it. Approximate an 8 hour day later they fixed all issues and even repaired some loose damaged boards on our deck while they had it apart saving us so much headaches later on. We will absolutely use this company for so many things in the future."

It looks so amazing I love the look and looks like nothing ever happened to my door I am so very grateful."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

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

Deck boards should be spaced no more than three-eighths of an inch apart. This is enough space to allow water and small debris to pass through without collecting on the surface, but not enough to create a tripping hazard. Certain materials, like pressure-treated wood, shrink over time, so they may need less space at installation.

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

Your deck may look or feel fuzzy after pressure washing because the high-pressure spray tears some wood fibers as it removes the outer layer of dead and discolored wood. This fuzzy effect is a normal part of the pressure-washing process and will go away on its own in a few weeks. You can opt to spot-sand your deck if you’d like to remove it more quickly.
