"Robert and his crew were great! They were very thorough and professional in completing my deck repair. They offered insight while completing the job to enhance the final appearance. Robert extended his time and completed tasks not included in the original contract without additional compensation. Everyone was very personal, polite and cooperative. I would very highly recommend New - Gen Construction for any deck related projects."

"Initially, I thought that the price was a little high, but after we saw the quality of the work performed, I had no complaints. Derek and crew spent substantial time prepping the ceiling and walls and the excellent results showed it.  Great care was taken to cover furniture and rugs.  Derek was very professional and a pleasure to work with.  I would definitely use him again and would recommend him to others.

Danette is the person you'll talk with in scheduling appointments. She is very friendly and helpful and a pleasure to talk with.  Her husband, Jenk, came to my home to give an estimate for taking down an existing fence and replacing it with white vinyl.  He arrived promptly and was friendly, yet very professional in measuring and explaining the quality of the product he installs.  He was very helpful in trying to save me money on this project and in keeping the price affordable.  Jenk was also kind enough to perform a couple of tasks which were necessary before the job could be done.  I had read many reviews about fence installers and Jenk came very highly recommended and lived up to all the comments I had read.  His estimate was the best I received, but I think I would have chosen his company, even if it wasn't, because of his sincerity in wanting to do the best job possible to please his customers.

I hired Express Fencing to install over 425 feet of vinyl privacy fencing.  The workers were very efficient, quiet, hard working men who stayed well past dark to get the job done.  They did a beautiful job with the fence and left my property looking far better than when they started.  Jenk was there at the beginning of the project to mark out the fence and get the job started and was there the last day to install gates and finishing touches to  make sure the job was finished to perfection.  You can tell that he has pride in his work and will go out of his way to make his customers happy.  You won't be disappointed in hiring this company, I highly recommend Express Fencing.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.

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. 

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

The cost to build a second-story deck averages $4,800, though the actual price could range as low as $420 to upwards of $16,000. While labor costs range between 35% and 50% of the total project cost, the materials and complexity of design will ultimately lead you to save or spend more money on this home addition.

Pressure-treated lumber is one of the most affordable types of decking upfront. This material is widely available, so you can usually find pressure-treated lumber at almost any local home improvement store you visit. Keep in mind that wood requires a lot of upkeep with repainting and restaining, so any kind of wood may be more expensive in the long run than something like PVC decking.
