"Sheldon and his team were everything you could want in a painter. Prompt communication, fair price, good advice and excellent work. They went above an beyond to fix the little things that they found. No extra cost. They even moved the wood pile away from the deck and restacked it. High marks across the board."

"In a previous review I stated I had not heard anything from the company about necessary repairs. That WAS NOT an issue with the company or its owner! It was an issue with electronic communications failure on my equipment. That issue is resolved (I hope!) I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing any type of repair for their home."

"We had our back deck demolished and replaced and our side decks refinished. We love the results of both jobs. Brian and his crew worked hard and were very professional. They hauled the demolished back deck away, moved our deck furniture and raised planters off the side deck and replaced it when finished. They also extended a downspout so it would drain away from the house and built a step from the bedroom door to the back deck and moved firewood away from the deck so I didn't have to. These were all thoughtful and not inculded in the bid. All the crew was cheerful and nice to be around during the time they were here."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, adding railing to a deck is a great way to improve safety and your home’s aesthetic appeal. Railings can be constructed from wood, metal, or composite, and there are plenty of choices regarding design and style. Always consult local building codes before starting any building project—there are often requirements regarding spacing and height that can differ slightly from place to place.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.
