"I have hired the INEX crew to replace the floor and top of the railing on my deck. They did a great job. Gave me a very reasonable price. Showed up on time and finished job in one day. Ron takes great pride in his work and his costumers. They are coming back in few weeks to power wash and stain my deck. I am very happy with the results and definitely hire them again. I highly recommend this company. Great work guys !!! Thank you !!"

"Molina's came out same day I called for estimate. They gave me a fair price and came within the week to do the job. They were right on time-were very professional and got that tree down quickly. I was amazed at how hard they worked, they knew what they were doing and cleaned up after they were done. They even let me keep the wood, and they stacked it nicely. Can't say enough nice things about them!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

A cedar deck can increase your home's value if the project is executed well. The value added by a deck is influenced by factors such as location, materials, and craftsmanship. In regions with warmer climates, decks are particularly desirable, enhancing outdoor living spaces.

The key to getting the most value out of your investment, both in terms of home value and personal enjoyment, is to make sure your deck is built to exacting standards. You should consult with a professional deck builder to get the best results and the highest ROI.

Deck stairs should have at least three stringers rather than two. The recommended minimum width for stairs is 36 inches, and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors recommends at least three cut stringers to provide sufficient support on wood decking stairs of this width. Generally, stringers should be a maximum of 16 inches apart for wood decking and 12 inches apart for more flexible composite decking.

Pressure-treated wood contains preservatives that give the material internal protection from rot and pests. Untreated lumber won’t last more than a few years unless you choose a more expensive wood, like cedar, that naturally stands up well to moisture. Composite decking can outlast wood but is more expensive and doesn’t look as natural. Keep in mind that you’ll need to seal any exterior wood product to protect it from the elements and other forms of external damage.

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.
