"Best Choice General Constructions provided an excellent experience from start to finish. They were extremely responsive to all of our questions throughout the process. The new deck was expertly built, delivered with quality materials, and completed within a week. The crew showed up every day, worked late to stay on schedule, and exceeded all of our expectations. We absolutely love how the deck turned out and would highly recommend Best Choice General Constructions to anyone looking for top-quality work. A special Thank You to John who paid extra attention to every detail and was a pleasure to work with! We highly recommend this company."

"I called All Complete Construction for a free estimate on repairing shingles on my roof after having contacted two other companies to no avail. Once I contacted All Complete Construction he promptly had someone come and look at my roof the next day for an estimate. Their crews was very knowledgeable and was able to explain about some leakage problem I had last winter and guaranteed me that the issue would be resolved after fixing the sides of the house. I decided to go ahead and hire their services. They were able to fit me on their schedule on that same week and they were very professional with the way they handled everything. My roof is not flat, I had one other company tell me they had to charge me over 2k just to add some securities around the house as it was a very dangerous roof apparently. These guys were pros. They had the job done in one day and found a way to climb over my deck so they didnâ t have to come inside the house. They even have a drone and updated me with pictures and videos of the work. All Complete Construction is very professional company. I would definitely hire them again."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.

If you want to make a deck cleaner from products already in your home, there are various options. The most common is to use a gentle blend of 1 gallon of warm water and 2 tablespoons of ammonia-free dish soap. You can also mix water with distilled vinegar. Sprinkling on some baking soda can help to remove mold and mildew. You can add oxygen bleach (but never damaging chlorine bleach) to the water and ammonia-free dish soap solution for something a bit stronger. 

Yes, it’s definitely possible to build a pergola on an existing deck. All you need to do is attach the pergola support beams to the deck’s joists and build up from there. Beware that mistakes can damage your deck, so if you’re at all unsure of the process, play it safe and hire a pro for your custom build.

Yes, you can attach a deck to a mobile home, but it’s important that the work be done correctly to avoid the potential for major damage to your home. Many building codes require that any additions to mobile homes—including decks—be either freestanding or have their own support structures. Getting permits may require submitting the home's original floor plan, the proposed floor plan, framing details, and more. 

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.
