"Met with Gary and could sense he had the talent and desire to do a great job. This was two connected decks all with trex decking and railings. There were other items included in the job. He completed all of them and did it all in a timely manner. He is talented and honest, qualities you really need in a good contractor. He will be doing future work for me. He proved himself to be a very professional and honest contractor. A credit to his profession."

"I had a very positive experience with Dan. He called the same day and was able to come to install four outdoor lights. He quoted a very fair price for installation and looked at another electrical problem and fixed it for no additional charge. He is capable and competent and I will not hesitate to use him for other jobs that may arise. I would recommend him highly."

"S&S Company owner came to view the project and offered to work and complete the project the very next day!!!! In order to fix the deck, it was necessary to grind down a large tree stump. This proved to be a much more complicated task and problem than originally thought. That said, he repaired the deck better than could be expected given the problems he faced regarding the age of the deck, the fact that the original foundation of the deck was not done correctly and the difficulties grinding down the tree stump. I was extremely pleased with the outcome. S&S is terrific and I plan on using him again."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

A covered deck can be a good investment that increases your home value—especially if you live in a hot region with a lot of sun. A covering over the deck means you can get more use out of it, even on the hottest summer days. With a permanent deck covering, you can even add ceiling fans to help cool down your deck for added comfort.

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.

The “best” material is in the eye of the beholder, as each common decking material boasts its pros and cons. Poured concrete is the best budget-friendly option, but composite wood brings high-grade aesthetics without breaking the bank. Wood is the most traditional material, but it requires more maintenance than some other materials. In other words, do your research before settling on a deck material to find the one that’s best for your pool.

A deck doesn’t have to be perfectly level. Many pros even recommend a gentle slope to ensure proper drainage and increase longevity. The ideal gentle slope is about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per foot away from the property, leading water away from the home to prevent pooling and reduce the risk of damage. It also minimizes rot, mold, and other moisture-related problems. 

Before installing a new railing, check the condition of the deck frame and joists, especially around the perimeter where posts attach. If boards are loose, soft, or show signs of rot, the structure may need repair. A deck pro can inspect your framing to confirm it meets load-bearing requirements.
