What maintenance does a wood deck need?

• <div><p>A wood deck needs an annual cleaning, plus refinishing every two to three years, which involves <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-sand-deck.htm">sanding the deck</a> and applying stain or sealer. If you have a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-paint-deck.htm">painted deck</a>, you’ll need to repaint it every 10 years. You should also fix and repair loose or broken deck boards, nails, and screws. Cleaning your deck regularly and applying sealant protects the wood from the elements, water damage, rot, mildew, and fading from the sun.</p></div>

Are there any alternatives to deck footings?

• <div><p>Deck pier blocks are one alternative to traditional deck footings. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/deck-footings-no-digging.htm">don’t require digging</a> or pouring. They’re best for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Keep in mind, though, that not all areas allow the use of deck pier blocks, so consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck.</p></div>

Q: How should stair stringers be attached to a deck?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.</p></div>

Q: Can I replace just one spindle, or do I need to replace them all?

• <div><p>Yes, you can absolutely replace just one damaged spindle as long as you can find a matching replacement. However, if multiple spindles are damaged or you can't find an exact match, you might consider replacing an entire section for a more uniform look and structural integrity.</p></div>

Q: How long will it take to rescreen my porch?

• <div><p>Rescreening your porch can take a few hours to a whole day, depending on the size of the enclosure and the amount of screen that needs replacing. If you decide to have a professional handle the rescreening, be sure to get a timeline and a cost estimate so you know how long you&rsquo;ll be without the screened-in space. </p></div>

I had a drawing of a double deck that I wanted built around my new swim spa and they made it happen! Even had an octagonal shape on the lower deck and it turned out great. They were helpful to work with and very professional in their quality of work. My project was completed in a timely...

Casey, did an amazing job of replacing our front deck and railing. He cleaned up the area when finished and hauled the old materials away. He is very reasonably priced and his quality of workmanship was excellent!

Under estimated work then tried to over charge. Was to remove old steps but did not have trailer or equipment to complete and only took out part. The whole job was an ordeal and not completed as agreed. Get everything in writing and signed if you choose to work with this guy. We had...

It was great to work with Randy Brendel. He was prompt and over-delivered on everything on all of his promises. I highly recommend his company. He repaired several problem areas on our roof and it looks great!

I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Pete indeed "could" find a tiny damaged chip in the On/Off switch and replace it successfully! He easily saved me from recovering any data and was timely in his repair with only one day of down time! Without his expertise, I would have...

They previously replaced the roof of a detached garage on the property. They did a very good job on that and is why I called them for a repair of the roof of main house. They did not try to sell me a new roof, they simply did the repair that was needed and did it well.
