"Hiring a contractor when you are used to doing the work yourself is always difficult. How do you find that person open enough to see your vision? How do you know they can do the work, and at a price you can afford? All I can say is that we found the perfect company with JMW Builders. It started with meeting Dylan who met with me several times, was always available to text or talk. Together we talked about my husband's and my vision for the work, chose colors and ordered the materials. The day they arrived he and his partner Shane worked with Matt to strip the old deck off and be there when the order was delivered. I didn't even have to be home! Dylan and Shane are talented professionals who listen to the owner but also aren't afraid to share their professional opinion. I appreciate that because when you are investing in a project you want it to turn out the best it possibly can. Their opinions guided the project to a successful end. Before they began, I decided to add a new pergola. Dylan helped me choose one that worked best with the design and the construction of it is an amazing addition to the deck. The team kept the construction very organized, they made certain to clean each night and when needed, place boards down for my dogs to access the backyard. When I needed some bars installed in my house in an emergency, all I had to do was call and they were there. I cannot say enough about their professionalism, talents and work ethic. I highly recommend them."

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Liquid rubber is great for waterproofing, but it can damage your deck if it’s not applied correctly. First, it can trap moisture in the wood if the deck isn’t completely dry before application.  Second, applying it too thickly can create a heavy, rubbery surface layer that peels and cracks under fluctuating temperatures. For the best results, ensure the wood is completely dry before application, and apply the liquid rubber in thin, even coats. A quick inspection every now and then will help you catch any issues early, keeping your deck protected and looking its best.

A wood deck requires annual cleaning and regular inspections for loose or broken boards, nails, and screws. It should be refinished by applying a stain or sealer every two to three years to protect the wood from water damage, rot, mildew, and sun fading. The exact frequency can depend on the climate and the deck's exposure to sun and moisture. If your deck is painted, it will need repainting approximately every 10 years. Signs that your deck needs refinishing include faded, splintering, or warping boards.

Because adding a deck will yield a higher property value, you may have higher insurance costs. It’s important to follow the codes and regulations set by your local and state governments, so your insurance rates can be properly calculated. You may need an insurance revaluation after your deck is completed. The best course of action is to speak with an insurance professional to understand how adding a deck will impact your home’s insurance costs before you begin.

In many areas, a floating deck that isn’t connected to your home and stays under 200 square feet and below 30 inches in height may not need a permit. These freestanding structures are often considered low-risk, which can simplify the building process. However, building codes vary greatly based on location. Before investing in any home improvement project, check with your local permitting office for deck-building guidelines.

Yes, you can draw your own deck plans in many cases. However, you must know your local building codes and be familiar with carpentry principles. Even then, it's always best to run your plans by a professional contractor with experience building decks, whether you choose to DIY some of the build or not.
