Top quality roofing and siding repair along with decking we strive for you happiness and satisfaction very small company for plenty of focus on your projects.

"I can't delete my solicited review from 2/2023, unfortunately. I paid Arron in full for a bathroom remodel and a screened in porch. He would disappear for months between contact, always had a dramatic excuse that would conflict with what he already said, and did this whole "aw, shucks" nice guy routine, always "dismayed" about someone else's ineptitude that led him to behave this way. He ended up disappearing after cobbing together some of the work. Outreach attempts go ignored. I've had to hire other people to come fix the disaster that he caused, and I will end up spending thousands to make it right. The shoddy work notwithstanding (who says that they can do a bathroom remodel when they don't even know to use plumber's tape around fixtures - flooded my basement), the job was not completed and Arron is busy soliciting other people to pay him while ignoring his obligation to us after I (naively) paid in full up front."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Often, cracked deck boards are just an aesthetic problem and do not need replacement. However, longer or deeper cracks may be a problem, especially if they are on the end of the board. You can fill minor cracks with caulk, epoxy, or sealant to prevent further damage and improve their appearance. Replace boards with more serious cracks, which could become a safety hazard.

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 deck restoration products and oil-based wood stains that can help bring back some of the color and shine to your faded Trex decking. However, if your boards are suffering from serious fading due to UV rays or chemical cleaning products, don’t expect miracles. Also, these products are only suitable for use on the older Trex boards, not the capped, second-generation Trex products. 

When installing deck boards, screws are a better option than nails. For one, screws have more holding strength than nails, so they’re better at keeping your deck boards in place. Also, nails are more likely to pop out of the boards than screws, which can create a tripping or poking hazard on your deck.

If you want to use the space beneath your second-story deck, then yes, an under-deck drainage system is worth it. Having a drainage system in place lets you run power to the area, so you can install a ceiling fan, lighting, TV, or other appliances to create a comfortable outdoor living space.
