"Nate has done three roofs for me and is about to start on a fourth for me. I highly recommend him. One of the homes he completed a full reroof for me on is a 100+ year old farmhouse with multiple intersecting rooflines and steeply pitched sections. Nate and his team did a fantastic job ensuring it is protected and set to last another 100 years."

"Home Adviser should let the company know that I wanted them to do the work when they came out. They were not prepared totally to power wash my house. They did have their power washer but did not have any chemicals to clean with. If I was suppose to supply the chemicals I should have been informed ahead of time. They did an excellent job cleaning my siding."

"I highly recommend Wilson LLC for any deck and fence project. The quality of their work, attention to detail and craftsmanship were excellent. They were professional, hardworking, and took pride in making sure everything was done right. Our deck & fence turned out beautiful and exceeded our expectations! It's refreshing to find a company that truly cares about the quality of its work and customer satisfaction. If you're looking to have a fence or deck built or remodeled, I would definitely recommend Ethan. Thank you for a job well done. We absolutely love our fence and new deck."

"My experience with Mr Pennell was extremely good throughout the job of cleaning and staining my deck. He was always easy to get in touch with and all communications were clear and acted on exactly as discussed. The job was completed on schedule and with excellent attention to detail. I was very satisfied and happy with the completed job and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Local building codes don’t specify the number of steps a deck can have before a railing is required, mainly because stair height varies widely. Most areas require decks 30 inches or higher to have a railing. While not exact, that roughly equates to four to seven steps.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area. 

The choice between Trex, a brand of composite decking, and PVC decking depends on your priorities regarding budget, appearance, and environmental impact. Both materials are durable and resistant to moisture and insects. Trex is often considered more eco-friendly because it contains recycled wood and plastic and is 25% recyclable, while PVC is fully synthetic and harder to recycle. Aesthetically, Trex is designed to look more like real wood, whereas PVC often has a glossier, more plastic-like finish. In terms of cost, Trex is typically less expensive than PVC.

Pavers are a great decking option for pools. They’re customizable, come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, textures, materials, and price points, and they’re slip-resistant. Concrete pool decks, on the other hand, are harder to repair and replace if damaged and aren’t as slip-resistant as most paver materials. However, not all pavers are equal in terms of durability, maintenance, and performance. Pavers also have their own cons that may encourage homeowners to opt for stamped concrete instead, such as higher upfront costs.

Increases livable area and enhances aesthetic, often boosting property appeal.
