"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 installing deck boards, screws are generally a better option than nails. Screws offer superior holding strength over time, keeping the boards securely in place. In contrast, nails are more likely to pop out, which can create a tripping hazard. While you can use either, we recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws. To minimize the risk of cracking the wood, it's a good practice to drill small pilot holes before driving the screws into the deck joists.

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.

Some elevated decks require stairs that lead to the ground level per the local fire codes in some municipalities. In other regions, a staircase is an optional feature that can increase accessibility and convenience for homeowners who want ground-level access to their deck. Additionally, a staircase is necessary if your home doesn't have an existing door leading to the deck.

Your deck may pop, and your neighbor’s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it’s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another.

Pavers are a great decking option for pools. They’re customizable, come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, textures, materials, and price points, and they’re slip-resistant. Concrete pool decks, on the other hand, are harder to repair and replace if damaged and aren’t as slip-resistant as most paver materials. However, not all pavers are equal in terms of durability, maintenance, and performance. Pavers also have their own cons that may encourage homeowners to opt for stamped concrete instead, such as higher upfront costs.
