"Jorge and his team are wonderful. Very professional and honest . Very respectful of your property and go above and beyond. I had two issues.I had flooding issues in my back yard and they put a drain in now I do not worry anymore about my basement flooding. I needed to redo my front steps. They put down beautiful pavers and rebuilt my steps. I love pulling into my driveway now my home looks so welcoming. Jorge and his team work hard to get the job done right and itâ  s shows in their work. I would recommend them very highly so much I asked them to come back and do another job. Jorge was very accommodating and did another well done job."

"Flavio is very professional. His work ethic is amazing and his quality of work shines brightly. My project was to build a new deck in my back yard. Flavio did an amazing job which was neat and tidy and reflect his carpentry skills. He started it on time and finished on time. It is absolutely beautiful and I cannot wait for summer to start entertaining on my beautiful deck. Another project he did was to paint/stain my entire back fence to complement the new deck. I highly recommend Flavio and his team to anyone . He is a man of integrity and honesty and I will continue to use him for all my projects large or small."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Materials for a second-story deck must be weather- and rot-resistant, though the specific choices will largely be determined by your budget and style preference. Pressure-treated wood is on the lower end of the price scale, but it can be customized and stained the way you like it. Composite, on the other hand, is pricier for installation and has fewer options for customization, but you’ll save money and time in the long run because it requires little maintenance.

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.

To flatten a cupped deck board, start by ensuring it’s dry. Then, try flipping the board over so the cupped side faces down and reattach it. If that’s not possible, you can use screws to pull it tighter to the joists or plane the edges slightly to reduce the cup. It’s best to replace severely cupped boards.

No, it isn’t necessary to skirt a deck, but investing in the cost to install deck skirting can bring more value to your home. Not only does deck skirting make the deck look more complete, but it can also turn otherwise unused space beneath the deck into useful storage space.

Yes, adding a composite deck, such as one made from Trex, can significantly increase your home's value. It is a valuable home renovation for recouping costs, with some estimates for return on investment (ROI) ranging between 60% and 70%. More recently, Remodeling's 2024 Cost vs. Value Report suggests a deck addition has an ROI of 82.9%, with an average resale value of nearly $14,600. A new deck makes your yard more functional, enhances the landscape's aesthetic, and can entice prospective buyers. The investment may have a higher return if the deck adds usable square footage to the property.
