"Deck Doctor did a fantastic job from start to finish on our project. Calvin came out and met with us, worked with us to determine the best set up for our deck rebuild and got the work scheduled in a timely manner. Calvin was very professional, and truly dedicated to providing top notch service. The crew that came out was absolutely wonderful. You could tell that they truly cared about doing the job correctly. The deck we replaced was falling apart, the new deck not only looks great, but is built solid. I would recommend Deck Doctor to anyone looking for deck repair / rebuild."

"This was not the cheapest quote for a retaining wall however owner took time to fully explain the specifics of job and was able to work with us to do work timely since we were dealing with water issues. Excellent work completed and wall looks great while solving our landscape issues. They also built a platform deck for our above ground pool to allow easy pool access. Again quality work completed as promised. Owner frequently on site during construction and was available if we had questions. Would use this company again."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

You can build an outdoor kitchen on a deck, but you should choose composite decking since it's more heat-resistant. Metal deck materials like steel and aluminum are also good choices because they're less flammable than wood. You should also consider the weight of the kitchen—make sure your deck can support it and any appliances you plan to use. You should consult a structural engineer to confirm exactly how much weight your deck can safely support when building an outdoor kitchen. 

Deck boards should be spaced no more than three-eighths of an inch apart. This is enough space to allow water and small debris to pass through without collecting on the surface, but not enough to create a tripping hazard. Certain materials, like pressure-treated wood, shrink over time, so they may need less space at installation.

With proper installation and maintenance, a vinyl deck can last up to 30 years. Factors like regular cleaning, minimal wear and tear, proper installation, and the use of higher-grade materials can extend its durability. However, extreme weather conditions or neglecting maintenance might shorten its lifespan. Adhering to manufacturer recommendations for care and occasional inspections can significantly prolong a vinyl deck's longevity.

In most cases, there should be a small gap between the house and the deck, usually no more than ½ to ¾ of an inch. This space allows water and moisture to flow through instead of pooling against the side of your house. It also lets flashing protect your siding from runoff, which is one of the most common issues with decks.

While you can use various materials like sand or even just soil, gravel is widely considered the best option to put under a deck. It provides excellent drainage and is resistant to water, fire, and pests. Gravel also helps anchor the soil to prevent erosion during heavy rain and acts as a built-in weed blocker, reducing regular upkeep. Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.
