"Kipp did a fantastic job!!! From the time Angi shared our project and he was listed as an option he responded immediately to my message. He was courteous and reliable. He was on time and fixed what needed to be fixed and then followed up a day later to make sure everything was working properly. Truly a great customer service experience with Trestle’s. We plan on using them again and I highly recommend them!!!"

"When I met Chris I felt up front that he was the right guy for my job. He had pictures of work he previously worked on. ( just beautiful ) I needed my 10x10 deck stained and sealed. With the 14 steps and balusters that run the length of both areas and set’s pretty high up on large wood deck beams. I hired Chris he got started early morning and finished the job by 3pm same day. I’m very pleased with his work he’s very qualified to take on any job very knowledgeable in his field of work and is very professional he will show up in a vehicle with his logo on it and a shirt logo to. He takes care of your property like he does his own. I highly recommend Chris for your painting needs indoor or outdoor. He’s very trustworthy."

"Needed fencing installed to keep groundhogs from taking up residence under our deck. Brady came up with a creative and complete solution that made sure the varmints were out and would not return. Would use again."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Homeowners should build their floating decks at least 18 inches off the ground. Having it at this height will allow for better airflow underneath and help prevent moisture-related problems like warping or rot. That being said, local guidelines for deck heights may vary depending on where you live.

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.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

It depends on the type of wood. The average cost to build a deck out of pressure-treated lumber is $15 to $25 per square foot, but more affordable varieties such as bamboo and cedar cost less at around $3 to $10 per square foot. However, when comparing the cost of vinyl decking versus wood decking, it’s important to also consider ongoing maintenance costs. For example, most woods require regular sealing to keep them protected against weather and rot.

While experienced DIYers may take on the challenge, hiring a licensed professional is often the best route, especially for larger or elevated structures. A local deck contractor is typically the best pro for the job, as they have specialized experience and are knowledgeable about local building codes, ensuring your deck is built safely and designed to last. Other professionals who can build a deck include general contractors and carpenters, who may be more readily available in some regions.
