"Job: I have a huge, 3 level deck with seating, flower boxes, stairs, plenty of railing and a trellis. I needed several boards replaced and the whole deck stained. Seal Strong worked well with me in making sure that everything looked exaclty how I liked it. I am very picky and overall they did a very nice job staining and repairing my deck. They were professional and courteous. I would hire them again and recommend them to others. I am hopeful the pre-treatment will extend the stain and outlive the warranty. They will come back to restain, maintenance for a nominal fee."

"Dave and Debbie at Platinum are the best painting outfit on the beach. They are polite, responsive and their work is second to none. You can rely on them to give you exactly what you ask for (plus more), at a reasonable price in a very professional manner. We've used various painters over the years for off-season maintenance (and in-season emergency work) and no one comes close to Platinum. I hesitated to write this review, as I am tempted to keep them a secret; you'll be pleased with the result when you go with Platinum."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

In general, you need a footing at each corner of your deck, and within 8 feet of each other. So, how many you need depends on the size and shape of your deck, plus any local building codes. It also depends on factors like the load capacity of your soil and the weight of your deck. You can find a footing calculator online or contact a pro for support.

As with patios, there are many types of deck choices to choose from to add personalization to your home. Some common deck options include:

  • Attached decks are anchored to the home and include simple ground-level options or multi-level structures with stairways and separate landings. 

  • Detached island decks are not attached to the home; they’re a freestanding structure in the yard. 

  • Wraparound decks connect the back of the house with at least one other side and often are built with railings for safety. 

  • Multi-level decks connect your deck through varying levels of elevation, featuring landings that are attached to stairs.
