"We had a tear off of a 30+ year old pressure treated deck and replaced it with Fiberon decking. Tim Dorner was exactly what you hope for when looking for a contractor. He helped us find just the right product we needed, he was professional, timely and has excellent communication with his customers. That leadership is also reflected in Tim’s crew. I couldn’t be more pleased with their craftsmanship. It is without hesitation I would highly recommend Dorner Decking for your decking job."

Decks and Porches questions, answered by experts

Start with a 60- or 80-grit sandpaper when sanding a deck, though this could change depending on the type of wood that comprises the deck and how smooth you want the overall finish. If you prioritize a smooth final finish, progress to a finer grit like 120 or 150. Avoid ultra-fine grits for traditional sanding, as it could close up the wood pores and make it harder to apply a finish down the line.

Rot loves moisture, so deck rot typically impacts the parts of a board that stay wet. This includes the underside of boards, in addition to support posts and joists. However, any part of a board can rot, given the right conditions. 

Similar to how you would care for turf in the yard, you’ll need to make sure you’re staying on top of your deck grass by picking up debris, cleaning up spills as soon as they happen, and giving your turf a monthly brushing with a medium bristle brush to keep it from flattening

You can use a few different tactics to prevent your deck gate from sagging. Aside from using strong, rot-resistant woods, introducing a diagonal element—such as a tension rod or solid piece of wood to act as a brace—across the gate will offer better support. You can also use rigid joists to prevent the gate from sagging.

Yes, but it works best with lightweight snowblowers, the single-stage models or electric versions. Also, you need to have a rubberized intake edge on the ground and preferably rubberized auger paddles, not a metal version. Otherwise you may chip or damage the surface as you work. When it doubt, let the snow lie.

You can also use a snow blower on leveled gravel, but only if you carefully adjust the intake height so it doesn’t kick up the gravel and turn it into flying missiles.
