"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 !!"

"I contacted three different businesses for this job. Miguel from cleaning and maintenance LLC was the only one who actually came to my home. He walked the property and asked questions. He gave a quote and stuck to it. He emailed a confirmation of the quote. He did a fantastic job with the power washing of our home. I would definitely use cleaning and maintenance LLC in the future. Very impressed"

"Goni was good. On time did what he said he was going to do on the exterior of my house and windows. I will say he might have rushed at one point because some paint got on some bricks. Goni said he's going to come back in April to power wash, not sure why in April, but that's what he said. Either way he did a good job. If you're looking for the neatest painter on the exterior of your house he might not be your choice. That being said I will hire him again. Also he showed pictures of other jobs that he did that were very good and neat. I also found the price very reasonable. There was one person who offered to do it a little cheaper but still chose Goni because how he carried himself."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

The best base materials for a ground-level or floating deck are typically gravel and crushed stone (also known as landscaping rocks). These options are inexpensive, provide excellent drainage, prevent weeds, and help minimize moisture buildup, which reduces shifting and rotting. For added stability and to evenly distribute the weight, you can use concrete deck blocks or pavers. While more expensive, concrete blocks and pavers offer a sturdier base than gravel or crushed stone alone.

Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

Decks are generally more expensive to build because they require elevating and railings. The difference between decks and patios is that decks are elevated, while patios are usually on the ground level. Plus, decks are usually made of wood and need more maintenance than most patios. However, decks and patios serve the same purpose, providing outdoor space for you to enjoy.
