"They did an excellent job. We had a variety of tasks and all were accomplished in one day. Supervisor and estimator Alex was great with communication and scheduling. Alex and Carlos showed up as scheduled at 8 AM ready to work. Alex stayed for a few minutes and then Carlos did the work. Carlos was excellent - very friendly and skilled. He made a few excellent suggestions along the way which we incorporated into the project. Work was finished in one day and cleanup was perfect. I would definitely hire them again."

"Jose Suarez repaired my deck including new boards and railings. He then pressure washed and restained the deck. All the work he did was meticulous and first class. He was easy to deal with and I have already contracted him to do a follow up project on my fence. I highly recommend him. Thanks Jose.."

"Andino's painting was a wonderful choice. She had an opening and began work the very next day. We had a deck that had become very stained and weathered. She is a miracle worker as she worked on the project she brought the deck back to looking as it was the day it was installed. She sealed the deck with a two coat process and it is beautiful now. She is a very good worker and her prices are reasonable. I would highly recommend hiring her or your project. I will definitely be hiring her for my future projects."

"Greg is THE MAN for patio restoration and re-sanding. My patio was in need of re-sand, repairing and leveling some pavers, and removal of moss. I’ve had other contractors do this before but they only power wash. Power wash was just the initial step for Greg. After washing, he literally scraped and shop-vacced every grain of the old sand out of the joints before refilling with new polymeric sand. He also allowed proper drying time between stages. End result is that my patio looks like the day it was built. Looks brand new. Truly blown away with his attention to detail in the cleaning process and removal of old sand. Pricing was very similar to another contractor I talked to but I am confident I would not have gotten Greg’s quality of work with someone else. Communication was great and he was always on time and got the project started very promptly after we decided to move forward. Amazing work."

"Alex Diaz, the owner, was prompt to respond with a quote, was incredibly thorough, and completed impeccable work! He is very communicative and willing to do just about anything. I appreciated most his desire to help save us money without sacrificing quality! This is the third project weà  à  à  à ¢à  à  à  à  à  à  à  à  ve hired J&J for - the first being exterior wood repair/replacement and paint; second a paint job of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms; and third, a complete deck replacement. While on-site, we had a few small projects, replaced our broken garbage disposal and repair of two sliding glass doors. We plan to use his company for all we can moving forward!!"

"Damian painted our outside deck a few weeks ago. We were so impressed by his attention to detail that we hired him to paint a bathroom and bedroom. He does excellent work. Cleans up after himself and is most courteous and accommodating. We'll definitely use him again and would recommend him to our friends."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

It is possible to build your own deck, but it’s typically better to leave the work to a decking professional. Decks can be exceptionally complicated, especially if you want a wrap-around or second-story deck, and you don’t want to risk making an expensive or dangerous mistake. It’s usually better to hire a decking pro who can pull permits and build a structurally sound deck that will last for decades and provide the maximum return on investment.

There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won’t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.

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.

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. 

A covered deck can be a good investment that increases your home value—especially if you live in a hot region with a lot of sun. A covering over the deck means you can get more use out of it, even on the hottest summer days. With a permanent deck covering, you can even add ceiling fans to help cool down your deck for added comfort.
