"I’m 87 and David is the best I’ve ever had. He was on time, extremely neat, perfect work repairing and painting my deck, deck furniture, replaced several rotted wood on my home, cleaned and pressure washed my gutters, cleaned up the area each day before he left, didn’t ask for $ until he was finished and I was completely satisfied. I am recommending David to everyone I know. He does everything! He stands “Head and Shoulders “ above his competition! He is Everything you would want in a professional and his prices are very reasonable! I’m so glad I found him."

"Mr. Gutierrez was pleasant, professional, and knowledgeable. He arrived when scheduled, and emailed me to tell me he was on his way. His work was impeccable, and he and his crew cleaned up after themselves. I will certainly hire him again if the need arises."

"If he said he would do it. . .he did. When he said he would be there. . .he was. His skills, craftmanship and integrity are above reproach. I could not be more happy with the deck rebuild he completed for me. It's beautiful, solid and better than the one he replaced. Thank you, Scott."

"This deck is a walkout from our laundry room into the carport. I drew a plan, and they built it exactly like I wanted with wider steps and special handrail for aging and easy access. They finished it with bead board and chair rail. It has storage under it. We have enjoyed using it."

"Great experience from beginning to end on new deck replacement install. The quote provided was professional and very thorough. They called prior to installation with updates and their arrival plans. We asked for some changes, and again professional change orders were made, keeping all questions and unknowns out of the project. The installers were great, efficient and friendly. Did assume anything and ask questions for our opinions. The were missing some small covers for the composite boards at the screws. Obtained them and came back to install them within two days! Again, can't say enough great things about our experience! They used the original white railing we installed years ago, and made it sturdier than it was before.... Wonderful work."

Customers say: Quick response

"Repaired deck framing issue on deck that was over water. During initial visit he reviewed my needs, explained work plan, provided estimate and then worked me into his schedule in a timely manner. Followed up on all phone calls. Showed up on time and finished project ahead of schedule. Answered all of my questions. When his project was done he checked out the rest of the deck and shared information about additional repairs that were still needed and how I could do that work myself. Would definitely recommend Bill to anyone needing work done on a decking project."

"Fabrizio the manager is wonderful, caring and has a great crew. This was the 2nd time we used their service, first was fence repair/ replacement, and now total yard cleanup, landscaping, deck repair. Both time we got fair quote, prompt estimate, crew was on time, worked hard, and cleaned up nicely after the job was finished. Fabrizio went over and above to accommodate our requests, made us feel well cared, we parted like friends. Highly recommend!"

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Before installing a new railing, check the condition of the deck frame and joists, especially around the perimeter where posts attach. If boards are loose, soft, or show signs of rot, the structure may need repair. A deck pro can inspect your framing to confirm it meets load-bearing requirements.

The “best” material is in the eye of the beholder, as each common decking material boasts its pros and cons. Poured concrete is the best budget-friendly option, but composite wood brings high-grade aesthetics without breaking the bank. Wood is the most traditional material, but it requires more maintenance than some other materials. In other words, do your research before settling on a deck material to find the one that’s best for your pool.

As with patios, there are many types of deck choices to choose from to add personalization to your home. Some common deck options include:

  • Attached decks are anchored to the home and include simple ground-level options or multi-level structures with stairways and separate landings. 

  • Detached island decks are not attached to the home; they’re a freestanding structure in the yard. 

  • Wraparound decks connect the back of the house with at least one other side and often are built with railings for safety. 

  • Multi-level decks connect your deck through varying levels of elevation, featuring landings that are attached to stairs.

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Yes, deck footings typically require an inspection before laying down concrete. While not all local building codes require footing inspection, proper placement ensures a safe and structurally sound deck. An inspector will verify that the deck can adequately hold what you put on top of it., and that the footings have been dug to the correct dimensions.
