"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."

Each time the work was flawless! Jeff and his crew do quality work at a fair price. They are very professional, neat and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend them, and I will definitely use them again."

Decks and Porches questions, answered by experts

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Yes, you can absolutely replace just one damaged spindle as long as you can find a matching replacement. However, if multiple spindles are damaged or you can't find an exact match, you might consider replacing an entire section for a more uniform look and structural integrity.

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.

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. 

While building your deck, you might come across something called the four-inch sphere rule. Essentially, this railing requirement for a deck states that a four-inch ball should not be able to fit through any gap in the deck railings. The gap between spindles and between the decking and the bottom of the railing must be less than four inches to prevent small children or pets from squeezing through the gap.
