"Initially commissioned Mark Heslin Builders to do an addition of a Screened Porch and Deck back in 2000. Job came out great... very satisfied. Asked Mark Heslin Builders to do an extension on the Deck and that project was completed in early 2022. New Deck matches up perfectly to existing deck and looks great. Doubled our Deck size."

"Ernie was on time. He found a crack in the frame of my skylight, which was damaged we a different contractor replaced my roof. Instead of trying to up-sell me, EAD found the problem, tested his theory, and repaired the crack on the spot. I canâ t thank EAD enough!"

"We originally reached out to Home Techs to do repairs resulting from a flood. Joe got back to us right away and came out to view the damage within a few days. We expanded the original job to include replacing the floors throughout the downstairs, putting in a new bathroom, installing a new water heater, rebuilding a closet, fixing our heater/circuit board and replacing the thermostats. Joe kept us updated throughout the process. He was respectful and kind and did everything he could to keep us within our budget. We then hired him to do the roof. Thereâ s nothing he and his team canâ t do. It was a great experience and we heartily recommend Home Techs for all your home needs."

"It was wondrrful doing business with Jackson and his company. He did a great job powerwashing our driveway and patio. Not only did he do a really good job powerwashing everything, but there was no stress working with him! He came on time to give us an estimate. He was here when he said to actually do the work abd when we realized we needed some additional work done, he took care of that in a timely manner too. Definitely holding on to his card for the future and would recommend him to anyone!"

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Because adding a deck will yield a higher property value, you may have higher insurance costs. It’s important to follow the codes and regulations set by your local and state governments, so your insurance rates can be properly calculated. You may need an insurance revaluation after your deck is completed. The best course of action is to speak with an insurance professional to understand how adding a deck will impact your home’s insurance costs before you begin.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

It is possible to build your own deck, but it’s typically better to leave the work to a decking professional. Decks can be exceptionally complicated, especially if you want a wrap-around or second-story deck, and you don’t want to risk making an expensive or dangerous mistake. It’s usually better to hire a decking pro who can pull permits and build a structurally sound deck that will last for decades and provide the maximum return on investment.
