"how’s this review sound? We had an excellent experience working with River and Imagine Restoration. They replaced our deck stairs and did an outstanding job from start to finish. They were punctual, professional, and communicated with us throughout the entire process, which made everything go smoothly. The quality of the work is top-notch, and they left the area clean and tidy when the job was done. We’re very impressed with their craftsmanship and reliability and wouldn’t hesitate to hire them again or recommend them to others!"

"Dave and his crew were fantastic! I ordered the wrong color by mistake! Dave and I went to the Sherwin Williams paint store. They were unable to tweak my bad paint to match the bracket from the door so I ended up buying a new gallon that matched it perfectly! With Dave's contractor discount I did save money on the new paint. He was so helpful and cooperative! They did a great job on the door and trim. Looks brand new! I would highly recommend Dave for any painting project!"

Deck Maintenance 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.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

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. 

Staining and sealing the underside of a deck creates a moisture barrier but traps water in the boards, quickly leading to rot. No matter how well you seal the above deck, water still gets through via nails and screw heads on the surface. Allow this water to flow naturally under the deck, where it is routed through the drainage system.
