"Chris and crew arrived on time daily. They were professional and meticulous. All of the old decking was removed and hauled away. They were clean and neat and did not make a mess. Our deck feels solid, no more rotted and wobbly boards. Our project was completed quickly (3 days/1 day removal of old decking/2 days of repair/rebuild). I highly recommend Eden Landscaping."

"I hired them to rebuild my deck stairs and restain my deck. I should have paid more attention to the reviews of their deck services because I had the same issues. Thad is very responsive and arrives on time. He does not give written estimates, just a verbal price. Since nothing regarding the scope of work was written down he forgot some of the things I had asked for and then said they would cost more. The deck stairs were structurally sound, but did not line up with my rails since they added an extra step and pushed the stairs further into my yard. I found another contractor through Home Advisor to remove the additional step so the stairs lined up with the rails and the landing again."

"The deck needed some repair workâ not a big job, but a lot of troublesome details, fixing some wear and tear but also a previous carpenterâ s mistakes and omissions. Joe came, looked over the situation, and made a very reasonable bid based on materials and hours. When he and his partner came to do the work, however, they approached it with the eye of a master carpenter and artist combined. They were clearly interested in more than just doing a small, picky job. They wanted to bring that deck up to its full strength and beauty, no matter what it took. And they did that â ¦ on budget and in a timely manner. I could not be more grateful or happy with the outcome. Count me as a long-term fan. Merwyn Johnson"

"It went great! I was looking to get my shed finished and Bergens Contracting and Repair was the first to come to mind after they laid a new roof on my house back in2005. The crew came out, did their thing, transformed my shed and cleaned up when they left. Shed looks better than my house now!! I think I know a company that can handle that!"

"I originally hired a different company from Home Advisor, but I hired Gutierrez Builders to fix and finish the job. They were responsive, kept me up to date with when the project would start, and cleaned up very well after they were done."

"Mike fixed a long-standing issue with our front door that had been a headache for quite some time. It was getting difficult to open during the winter months, but he resolved it right away and clearly explained what was causing the problem. My dog took an immediate liking to him, and it's clear he is a big dog lover. He is simply the best peson to work with. I will not hesitate to call him first whatever I have any house -related issues in the future."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Rotting wood, loose railings, or unstable stairs may indicate a need for expertise.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area. 

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

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.

Spindles on a deck may also be called balusters or pickets. While not as important to the structural support of the deck as the rail posts, they play a critical role in ensuring the deck is safe to use by closing in large gaps in the railing. For this reason, balusters must be no more than 4 inches away from one another.
