"Hired Peter & his dad to paint and restore/repair my deck (3 levels). The repair and changing of the color gives my backyard a million dollar look. An excellent job from start to finish. 👍🏽 They have highly skilled painters and carpenters."

Customers say: Quick response

"Ed is a true professional. Our deck was in very poor condition and he transformed it to the best it has ever looked. His work is exacting. The cost of our project was extremely fair. Ed had to work with an older, structurally sound deck that had been excessively power washed. He took great care in sanding the damaged wood - every single picket/baluster - replacing the top railing, and staining the entire deck. I highly recommend Ed."

"Hugo was always on time and did an excellent job on repairing my kitchen ceiling. He was very good in covering all the areas before working and cleaning up afterwards. I would certainly recommend him for more work especially painting jobs,"

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

Both composite and PVC decking are excellent alternatives to wood. However, while composite is moderately priced and lasts around 30 years, PVC costs more and lasts longer. PVC is also more durable, though both materials are more durable than wood decking. Ultimately, the choice between composite and PVC decking will come down to your budget and preferences.

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.

The best way to clean your decking is to clear debris from the gaps between the boards, sweep the surface, rinse it, apply cleaner, rinse again, and let it dry fully. A homemade deck cleaner made of two gallons of warm water and 1/2 cup vinegar is a simple cleaning solution for both wood and composite decking. You can sprinkle baking soda on any spots with mold or mildew, then scrub the area and rinse clean. 

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.

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.
