"AJ and his team:Jimmy,Pete,Mark and his cohort were great. Theyâ ve been here three years ago and believe it or not it was AJ (the owner) and his father. My deck being a hardwood (Ipe-Brazilian) requires extra attention. Stain(an Australian timber oil) has to be rolled on delicately and then brushed. It ainâ t easy folks. And I might add we had deck furniture and plants that weighed in excess of 50 lbs. Took four days and there may have been some latency in return calls thatâ s the business world. Trust them. Great work. AJ is a force of nature and I would encourage you to give him a call as he is very resourceful and a wonderful guy to work with."

"They just finished putting a front porch railing, handrails and posts on our house along with upgrading our deck and power washing our garage. We were much more than pleased with the quality of their work for a very fair price. We will be using them again for any future projects as well as highly recommending them to anyone else who needs similar work done."

"Mr. Green was a hard worker, very particular about the quality of his work. He matched the color. Before painting, he power-washed the deck. He also sanded the floor boards and applied two coats to them. Other estimates never mentioned sanding, and painting two coats, so I think it was a quality job."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

To prepare a deck for a hot tub, start by thinking about safe and easy access in and out of the tub. Homeowners should plan for steps or consider built-in seating, a level surface around the perimeter, and a clear, slip-resistant path from the house. A hot tub requires sufficient space around it for comfortable entry and exit, ensuring no awkward squeezing or stepping over high edges. Good lighting and handrails can also make a big difference, especially for nighttime use.

Whether composite decking is better than wood depends on your priorities, especially regarding budget and maintenance. Composite decking offers superior longevity (30 to 50 years) and durability, and it is low-maintenance, requiring no sanding, staining, or sealing. In contrast, wood decks typically last 10 to 30 years and need refinishing every few years. While the upfront cost of composite is higher than wood, the reduced maintenance can lead to long-term savings. If a lower initial cost is the primary factor, wood is the more affordable choice.

Yes, it is generally safe to have a fire pit on a deck, but you must adhere to building codes and take several safety precautions. For both built-in and freestanding models, you must use a heat-resistant barrier, such as a fire pit pad or heat shield, between the pit and the deck. Additionally, consider the weight of the fire pit and ensure your deck can structurally support it, reinforcing it if necessary. The fire pit must also be positioned a safe distance from your house, particularly from materials like vinyl siding, to prevent heat damage.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

Staining and sealing the underside of a deck creates a moisture barrier but traps water in the boards, quickly leading to rot. No matter how well you seal the above deck, water still gets through via nails and screw heads on the surface. Allow this water to flow naturally under the deck, where it is routed through the drainage system.
