"Tito and sons went above and beyond to make my replacement deck completely restored. They showed up on time and stayed late to make sure all was completely done and to my satisfaction. I love my new deck and will spend many days enjoying it. The entire team was very professional."

"This is the 2nd time I've used Freeborne and I would definitely have them back again. They built a 12' X 16' enclosed room on a 2nd story deck and it came out great. Lenny, Scott and crew knew what we wanted and exceeded our expectations without over complicating the project. There were no budget surprises either. The amount we discussed at the beginning was what we were charged. If I could I would use them to do projects inside of the house!"

"Two years ago we used this company to clean out the inside of the gutters and powerwash the house and were very pleased with the service provided so we called them again. Unfortunatly we did not have the same experience. I reached out to Alan via email to which he responded promptly. We went back and forth a few times to clarify pricing and details of work being done always with a prompt response. We decide to have the gutters hand washed for an additional $195.00  ($175.50 with 10% senior discount) as well as cleaning out the inside of them and powerwashing the house. When Alan's worker comes to do the work he determines that hand washing the gutters would damage them and therefore we do not have them hand washed. Once the job is finished the worker contacts Alan to adjust the bill since the gutters were not hand washed. Alan first adjusts the bill by $131.50 and then by $156.50 when we question it instead of $175.50 we were charged. We call Alan several times while the worker is waiting and Alan does not answer the phone. Since we do not want to keep the worker waiting we pay him the requested amount knowing it is incorrect. Alan has not returned any of our phone calls or emails since July 28 and has cashed my check and not returned the $19.00 that was overcharged. Needless to say we will not be using Alan Drake in the future. 

A $19.00 refund was received on 8/13/15. I checked back through all incoming email, deleted email and spam  as well as incoming phone calls and messages and did not find the email Alan was referring to nor any other responses to my inquiries. As I was checking my email and phone messages several times a day waiting to hear from him I most definitely would have responded. I realize he was dealing with a personal matter at the time and did allow 2 weeks before posting my review. I am pleased that the matter has been resolved and I have adjusted 3 ratings to reflect the situation has been addressed.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

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.

The problems with composite decking include a high rate of expansion and contraction from temperature swings. This characteristic can cause boards to split, delaminate, or peel. In addition, significant movement can cause shrinking, warping, twisting, and bending. For this reason, you should minimize moisture and ensure proper airflow below your deck.

For the best results, stay off of your deck for at least 48 hours after sealing it. Giving the sealant at least two full days to cure ensures it can fully penetrate the wood, giving you the most protection from sun and weather damage later on. Walking on the deck too soon can prevent it from properly curing and cause your deck to weather prematurely.

Decks require several inspections during and after the building process, but the specifics vary depending on where you live. Most areas mandate that decks comply with local building codes and safety regulations for the foundation, framing, and structure. Some pros recommend a footing inspection, which verifies the depth, width, and location of the various footings to ensure they offer enough foundational support.
