"Every person Iâ ve come into contact with at Sebonac has been friendly and professional. For me personally, one of the most important things, and what Iâ ve had problems with in other companies, is communication. These guys pick up the phone when I call, and if they canâ t they immediately call back. Iâ ve worked with a lot of different companies through the years and their prices are fair and just overall I really like their attitude when it comes to problem solving or working through any issues I have. There good people and do good work."

"A++++++ Angelo and his crew member were the best professionals I have hired to date. Let me just say, it’s refreshing in this day and age to get what you pay for, plus. I received a prompt response and estimate for services. Everything was explained. Angelo was able to give me an estimate via email by viewing my residence on Google Earth for dimensions, approximate size of project. It was a quick, prompt process. I booked an appointment. I have never, ever had such honest, professional service. I am not being over-dramatic. I highly recommend this company. They confirmed my appointment a few days before. They even sent me pictures of their employees who would be coming to my home, along with background checks and their company’s licensing and insurance information. Then, let me just say, they went above and beyond. They arrived promptly as promised, shook my hand while introducing themselves, helped me move my patio umbrella and replace it back onto deck afterwards. They worked in pouring rain at my home for two and a half hours. If you are a single lady, a widow, a hard-working homeowner who wants a trustworthy, honest, diligent business to hire, please consider Preferred Choice. I simply cannot say enough without sounding like I’m gushing. I’m truly happy I chose this company and I will utilize their services again without hesitation."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes. Freestanding or floating decks are exactly what the name implies—structures with their own support beams. You can build a deck yourself and place it next to a house for the illusion of a connected deck without the hassle. Or you can construct it in a separate part of your yard for a dedicated outdoor entertainment space. For the purpose of removing a freestanding deck, the steps are the same as an attached deck, but you don’t have to cut the deck away from the home.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

The best way to clean your decking is to clear debris from the gaps between the boards, sweep the surface, rinse it, apply cleaner, rinse again, and let it dry fully. A homemade deck cleaner made of two gallons of warm water and 1/2 cup vinegar is a simple cleaning solution for both wood and composite decking. You can sprinkle baking soda on any spots with mold or mildew, then scrub the area and rinse clean. 

Space deck handrail posts four to six feet apart. If the posts are more than six feet apart, the railing will be less able to withstand lateral forces and is more susceptible to breaking. Additionally, railing posts that are more than six feet apart may not be up to code, and you may face fines and be required to reinstall the posts to bring them up to code.
