Customers say: Quick response

"I hired Quality Custom Construction to insulate the crawl attic space that was attached to my daughters room. Her room had been cold and unbearable. Within an hour of Brian and his team finishing the job, my daughters room was warm and comfortable the way a child's room should be. He removed all the excess waste that had been in the attic prior and left nothing for me to clean after he was done. I was beyond impressed by the professionalism and knowledge that Brian and his team brought to this project. He explains what he is doing and why. He loves what he does and you can tell by the workmanship and care. I don't normally write reviews but this was a must. I will never need to look for another business and neither do you. If you are looking for a reputable company that carries honesty and excellent work value as their staple then Quality Custom Construction is it hands down."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

A deck that isn’t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don’t need deck stairs. Some don’t even require permits. Generally speaking, building a floating deck is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that’s connected to your home.

Yes, deck pier blocks can be used as an alternative to traditional deck footings, especially for smaller or low-to-the-ground decks. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks do not require digging or pouring. However, their use is dependent on local building codes. Some areas, particularly those prone to high winds, earthquakes, or hurricanes, may not permit the use of deck pier blocks. It is essential to consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck project.

Most building codes list a minimum width of 36 inches and a maximum height of 7¾ inches. However, for the most comfort and spaciousness, you’ll want to aim for a width of at least 48 inches and a height of 7 inches. Again, it’s always a good idea to base your numbers off steps that you already use comfortably.

It's okay to walk on a newly painted deck after about four to six hours as long as the weather has been dry. Be sure to wait at least 24 hours before you place any outdoor furniture or grills on a freshly painted deck, though.

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.
