"Looking for a reliable contractor for fencing, deck work and so much more? Forrest is incredibly honest, upfront, and offers reasonable prices. They recently completed a fence and deck project for us, and the results were phenomenal. Despite a few challenges along the way (we have a difficult yard), Forrest kept us informed every step of the way. Definitely a small business worthy of support and we will definitely be using them in the future."

"AJ was quick to reply to my request. He had the deck pressure washed within a few days. After the deck dried, AJ applied a water sealant. He did a great job at a fair price. I will hire him again."

Additionally, his services are very reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend Skinners Professional Services and use them again."

"The building that was painted is a two story commercial building. A New Look Painting painted the interior of the building and did a very professional job. Employees were very cordial, respectful and a pleasure to work with. The owner assured me he would not leave the job site until I was satisfied with the work. He is honorable and a man of his word. Very satisfied!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The life expectancy of deck boards varies widely based on the material, climate, and maintenance. Untreated wood boards typically last 10 to 30 years with proper care, while pressure-treated boards can last up to 50 years. Hardwoods generally outlast softwoods. Composite boards also tend to last longer than natural wood. Environmental factors like arid or humid climates can shorten a deck's lifespan. To extend the life of wood decking, it's important to consistently clean and seal it to protect against moisture, UV light, and insects.

When building a deck, #2 grade lumber is a go-to for several reasons. It’s strong, budget-friendly, and works well for most framing and decking needs. But upgrading to #1 or Appearance Grade can give your deck that extra visual edge if you're after a cleaner, more polished look for high-visibility spots.

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.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

Generally, a patio is more accessible than a standard deck because patios are constructed at ground level. However, decks can be made accessible by adding a wheelchair-accessible ramp, a vertical lift, or a stair lift along the entry. An ADA-compliant deck ramp costs about $3,000 on average. The additional investment will provide a much friendlier experience for your guests with movement impairments.
