"Everything about this company is top notch. They started the work several weeks ahead of schedule and finished in less time than expected. They treated the project like it was their own and offered suggestions to keep the cost down. Since I donâ t live in the area they kept me updated on the progress with pictures and kept in constant contact. Never had to wait for a return call. Mike is the best. On the day he came by to look at what needed to be done and provide an estimate, he saw that some of our boards on our back deck steps were loose. His comment was, â I donâ t want to anyone to get hurt so let me just fix that now.â And he did. And that had nothing to so with our initial project. He is the sweetest man and very trustworthy. I highly recommend Happy House Home Improvement for any project you may have. One of the comments he said to me on his initial visit is that he wants to be the company that we go to for any work that needs to be done. Well thatâ s a given. They did a beautiful job and I will certainly use them on future projects. Well done Mike and thank you."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor 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 crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Pressure-treated wood contains preservatives that give the material internal protection from rot and pests. Untreated lumber won’t last more than a few years unless you choose a more expensive wood, like cedar, that naturally stands up well to moisture. Composite decking can outlast wood but is more expensive and doesn’t look as natural. Keep in mind that you’ll need to seal any exterior wood product to protect it from the elements and other forms of external damage.

What goes under your floating deck depends on your preferences. Some homeowners put landscaping fabric underneath their decks to prevent weeds from popping up through the boards. Others choose to build a floating deck over grass or gravel. However, it’s best not to set your deck directly on the ground. Instead, set your deck on blocks to keep it elevated enough to prevent moisture from rotting the wood.

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

PVC decking can get slippery when wet because it’s made from plastic. However, composite and wood decking can also be slippery when wet. It’s best to wear shoes with grippy soles when walking on a wet deck, no matter the material, and to be extra cautious not to slip and fall down.
