"Needed to replace my balcony and front porch pavers. Tim showed up for the quote on time. I received 5 quotes and Bazellari was not only the most reasonable but I was also impressed with Tim's knowledge and experience. Deck and porch work were done well and done on time. Tim was great to work with. His men were polite and professional, and cleaned up everything after the work was completed. I will work with Bazellari again on future projects."

"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 !!"

"Willie, from G and R did a great job. I highly recommend him to do any small handy man project. I hired them to do Deck repair as my Two deck wooden stripes were rotten as well as one Step need to be replaced. Excellent job. In addition, he fix my Shed door and lock holding wooden piece. He nailed my Shed roof singles which were damaged by heavy storm. He trimmed two trees branches and put everything on the curb. Willie was responsive and professional. He arrived promptly and gave me very fair estimate versus other two. His crew showed up on time and the work was done as expected in our absence. My Deck looks great and safe to walk. My front door tall tree looks neat. My wife and I are very happy with the job and would definitely recommend them to others. Best part Willie was always answering the phone when ever I called him and help me to answer all my questions."

"I had my deck done two years ago but the original contractors that installed it did not install a staircase. Everything backyards came in and installed a wooden staircase with a lattice under the deck. They were very thorough and quick, the job was done within two days"

"Working with the people in the office, i.e. phone conversations, scheduling, billing, price, etc., was great. The leaders of this company were receptive and helpful. The job itself, from a "before" and "after" perspective, solved our problems quite well, and was very reasonable in terms of cost. However, after the job was completed and the crew left, I noticed numerous (about 20 or more) loose roofing nails, both used (i.e. rusted over) and new, scattered around our backyard patio and some were actually lying around in our grass, hard to see. My family, including my young son, walk around our patio and in our grass barefoot many times, so this definitely concerned us. I spent 45 minutes to an hour combing through the grass to ensure all nails were removed, and climbed the roof to make sure no additional nails were there as well (that took 20 minutes or so). I would guess at this point, given the professionalism of the owners, that this crew has been replaced with more conscientious workers or, at the minimum, given a good talking to about proper maintenance practices. Liked the owners a lot; definitely did not like the crew's disregard for my family's safety. That said, I would encourage others to give this company a go with regard to roofing and/or siding work. The owners do care, and they can only do so much to control their crew I am sure. See that "Professionalism" grade of "C"? "A" for the owners, "F" for the crew."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

You typically don’t need a railing and handrails on a deck that’s less than 30 inches from the ground. However, consider adding them regardless. Railings provide additional safety for you and your guests who use your deck—plus, railings give the deck a more finished look than it would have without them.

The life expectancy of deck boards varies widely based on the material, climate, and maintenance. Untreated wood boards typically last 10 to 30 years with proper care, while pressure-treated boards can last up to 50 years. Hardwoods generally outlast softwoods. Composite boards also tend to last longer than natural wood. Environmental factors like arid or humid climates can shorten a deck's lifespan. To extend the life of wood decking, it's important to consistently clean and seal it to protect against moisture, UV light, and insects.

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 direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

Generally, a patio is more accessible than a standard deck because patios are constructed at ground level. However, decks can be made accessible by adding a wheelchair-accessible ramp, a vertical lift, or a stair lift along the entry. An ADA-compliant deck ramp costs about $3,000 on average. The additional investment will provide a much friendlier experience for your guests with movement impairments.
