"Derek was on time, professional, courteous. He installed two grab bars; one into ceramic tile and one into wallboard-both going into studs for safety. He cleaned up afterwards and left everything as he found it. Excellent work! Will use him again."

"Edward from InGenius Solutions is amazing! I hired him to complete a very complex job which involved leveling my home. He worked diligently to get the job done and was very meticulous every step of the way to ensure no corners were cut, and that my home would be safe for me and my children. Upon completion of the job, I asked if he could take on a few other jobs, he gladly accepted, putting me first and getting me on his schedule promptly. He put in new flooring, which turned out beautiful and got it all done in one day! I highly recommend this company for any job, big or small!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

No. In most cases, it’s not colder or freezing temperatures that affect decking materials but the amount of moisture that seeps into the materials as a result. For example, wood decking material is more likely to suffer from rot or decay when exposed to excess moisture from snow or ice. An extreme change in temperature can cause wood to expand or contract, but only if it’s not properly treated beforehand.

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

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.

Composite decking might cost more upfront, but it delivers value in terms of durability. Unlike wood, composite material resists common deck problems such as rotting, fading, warping, and all the other things you don’t want a deck to do. The extra processes lead to a higher price tag, but you’ll save big in maintenance costs down the road.

Rot loves moisture, so deck rot typically impacts the parts of a board that stay wet. This includes the underside of boards, in addition to support posts and joists. However, any part of a board can rot, given the right conditions.
