"Hired Peter & his dad to paint and restore/repair my deck (3 levels). The repair and changing of the color gives my backyard a million dollar look. An excellent job from start to finish. 👍🏽 They have highly skilled painters and carpenters."

"I hired Palmieri back in May, after calling to receive my free estimate, i got my contract within the week and was able to have service by the following week. They end their season in November and I must say I am very pleased with the work the men provided on a weekly basis. I will definitely be continuing my services with them for the following season as well as snow removal for the winter season."

"When I contacted Peter about painting our living room I explained my husband’s health was not good. The painting needed to be done quickly and in one day. Peter and his fellow worker delivered! The work was done in one day and beautiful. We were so pleased I hired him to do our stairwell within 2 weeks and again in one day. So happy with our fresh clean looking living room. Thank you Peter!"

"The work that Mark and his crew at MX did on our new deck was absolutely phenomenal! We could not be happoer with the investment we made. They paid attention to every detail of the project. They communicated during every setp of the way. I was very anxious when we began this project and was looking for a company that would work on the deck like if it was their own home, and that is exactly what they did. Our family could not be happier with the work they did. If I could give them more starts I would. We recently had family over to see the deck and they could not stop raving about how awesome it was. It was also done with a lot of thought on safey and secutiry. I highly recomment them for anyone looking to do work on their deck. Their work is amazing!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

Wood decks need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years on average. Natural wood is highly vulnerable to infiltration and damage from moisture, which can occur rapidly due to exposure to outdoor elements. You can protect your deck and maximize its lifespan by sealing it every year or two.

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.

Whether composite decking is better than wood depends on your priorities, especially regarding budget and maintenance. Composite decking offers superior longevity (30 to 50 years) and durability, and it is low-maintenance, requiring no sanding, staining, or sealing. In contrast, wood decks typically last 10 to 30 years and need refinishing every few years. While the upfront cost of composite is higher than wood, the reduced maintenance can lead to long-term savings. If a lower initial cost is the primary factor, wood is the more affordable choice.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.
