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 can I make my deck railing more child- or pet-friendly?

• <div><p>To child- or pet-proof your deck railing, look for railing systems with narrow spacing&mdash;under 4 inches&mdash;between balusters or panels. For added safety, consider installing a clear acrylic or mesh guard along the inside of the railing to prevent small limbs or paws from slipping through. Avoid horizontal rails that adventurous kids can climb like ladders. You can also add self-closing gates at stair openings to limit access.</p></div>

Q: Can you fix warped composite decking?

• <div><p>You can&rsquo;t fix warped composite decking boards, but you can replace them so your deck surface is no longer warped. For more severely warped decks, especially those with damaged joists or support beams, you&rsquo;ll need a pro to inspect the deck and recommend whether you should replace the structure or repair the damage. </p></div>

Q: Does insurance cover wood rot?

• <div><p>Wood rot is not normally covered by insurance except in rare cases when it results from a covered event like a burst pipe. Wood rot is categorized as gradual, preventable damage, so most insurance policies won&rsquo;t pay for claims to repair wood rot damage. Check your policy to find out if wood rot is covered before making a claim. </p></div>

Q: What maintenance is needed after staining or painting a deck?

• <div><p>Aftercare includes routine cleaning, checking for water repellency, and promptly addressing any chips or peels, maintaining the deck's appearance and functionality.</p></div>

I have used them for multiple jobs on multiple locations, they are amazing. They show up on time they get things right and I don’t have to call them back. I’ve had experience with other plumbers that I have to call back and they don’t respond. This one does it right the first time

Ramon, Johnny and Tyrus did a very good job installing drain tile and sump pump in our basement. They were very friendly and communicated very well throughout the project. They left the worksite very clean when they left. Would not hesitate to use them again.

Daryl, Johnny and the rest of the crew were great. Arrived on time every morning and when they finished for the day the work site was cleaned. They even skimmed to pool to make sure there was no debris . The project took 3 1/2 days and we couldn't be happier.
