"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."

"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."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Before installing any materials under the deck for removing moisture, you should perform some prep work on the ground. Work the dirt under the deck to create a grade away from the home. A grade of at least six inches for every 10 feet works well. Do not leave a gap between the dirt and the home’s foundation where water could pool. Once you or a contractor regrades the dirt under the deck, you then can add materials over the top.

When installing deck boards, screws are generally a better option than nails. Screws offer superior holding strength over time, keeping the boards securely in place. In contrast, nails are more likely to pop out, which can create a tripping hazard. While you can use either, we recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws. To minimize the risk of cracking the wood, it's a good practice to drill small pilot holes before driving the screws into the deck joists.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Yes, it is possible to add an under-deck drainage system to an existing deck by retrofitting it to the structure. This process may require some prep work. For example, many drainage systems are installed on top of the deck joists, which would require you to remove the decking boards and railings first. To avoid this, you could opt for a below-the-joist drainage system. For best results and to ensure proper installation, it is recommended to consult a professional. A pro can inspect your deck, make any necessary repairs, and then install the drainage system correctly.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.
