"Nick Whitney helped design and build a home from start to finish using a 20 year old blueprint. Nick was involved from the beginning in redesigning old plans from 2005 and making them up to code as well as responding to our day to day input to produce a working set of drawings for a custom home we could only dream of. Nick is a hands on builder able to execute and anticipate changes needed along the way to make sure all of our wishes were addressed. Nick and his crews strive for excellence using the best of materials as well as going the extra mile making sure work meets or exceeds existing building code. We are currently midway in the construction of our home and look forward to its completion by the end of October 2024. We would give our highest recommendation to Nick Whitney and Americas Best Construction for any home building or remodeling projects large or small. You will not be disappointed."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.

There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won’t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.

A random orbital sander is best for sanding a deck because it is easier to handle than other power sanders and is less likely to damage the wood. Most decks are made of types of softwood, so a gentler sanding process is essential to prevent permanent blemishes. For example, belt sanders can gouge softwoods.

Before installing any materials under the deck for removing moisture, you should perform some prep work on the ground. Work the dirt under the deck to create a grade away from the home. A grade of at least six inches for every 10 feet works well. Do not leave a gap between the dirt and the home’s foundation where water could pool. Once you or a contractor regrades the dirt under the deck, you then can add materials over the top.

Pressure-treated lumber is one of the most affordable types of decking upfront. This material is widely available, so you can usually find pressure-treated lumber at almost any local home improvement store you visit. Keep in mind that wood requires a lot of upkeep with repainting and restaining, so any kind of wood may be more expensive in the long run than something like PVC decking.
