"The owner Eric was great and always kept me up-to-date on the project timeline (I was painting my deck and obviously it was dependent on weather). He was very professional, and his two painters Edgar and Diego were wonderful. They were very thorough and the deck looks like new! Thank you Red, White and Blue painting!!"

"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."

"They were very slow to complete the project and I needed to follow up quite a few times. Good that the project was an outdoor project and also that I had flexible completion date otherwise, it would have been very messy. Work quality was not up to the mark till I followed up and made them adjust things. The end product is very good."

"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!"

"Tony performed quality work on my deck for a fair price. He was punctual, and communicated well when weather interfered with his plans. His prep includes a light sanding which breathed new life into my aging wood deck. I will definitely hire him again."

"I cannot say enough. It has only been 2 days and I already had one neighbor walk over and another text me to say how beautiful the fence looks. It actually makes the house look nicer! I didn't think I would be able to do such nice fencing around most of the house, but they made it affordable to do so. The owner of the company actually works alongside his help! No dropping off workers and coming by later to check up on the work, if even that. What a welcome sight. All my concerns were listened to and addressed, I can't say enough. I am so glad I used Express Fencing. This was a big job that was done in one day!. They got here early in the morning and with the amount of workers were done by dinnertime. Before you choose your fence company make sure you include them in your choices. Best decision we made."

"Excellent work and reasonable pricing. Andres and his team were very professional and meticulous. The deck came out great and the overall painting looks flawless. As Andres promised, the preparation was well done and had produced great results. His team was careful in protecting my property and were very friendly and accommodating in handling all of my requests. They really went out of their way to earn my satisfaction. Would highly recommend."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

A deck doesn’t have to be perfectly level. Many pros even recommend a gentle slope to ensure proper drainage and increase longevity. The ideal gentle slope is about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per foot away from the property, leading water away from the home to prevent pooling and reduce the risk of damage. It also minimizes rot, mold, and other moisture-related problems. 

Yes, it is generally safe to have a fire pit on a deck, but you must adhere to building codes and take several safety precautions. For both built-in and freestanding models, you must use a heat-resistant barrier, such as a fire pit pad or heat shield, between the pit and the deck. Additionally, consider the weight of the fire pit and ensure your deck can structurally support it, reinforcing it if necessary. The fire pit must also be positioned a safe distance from your house, particularly from materials like vinyl siding, to prevent heat damage.

Covering your deck with a breathable tarp can protect it from snow, ice, and cold winter temperatures. This is a good winterizing solution if you don’t plan to use your deck at all during the colder months. However, it might be best to skip the tarp if you’ll still be walking on your deck or using it in a limited capacity.

Rot loves moisture, so deck rot typically impacts the parts of a board that stay wet. This includes the underside of boards, in addition to support posts and joists. However, any part of a board can rot, given the right conditions. 

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.
