"Our 3rd or 4th project with East End Designs. I lose count. Extensive deck refurbishment, hot tub installation, and whole timber replacement with prime mahogany. Quality result with Shawn proactive in dealing the details, any nits or fixes, while consistently maintaining positive attitude, well directed teams, and clean safe work site. Having documented blueprints and plans clearly helped with daily 'stand-up' and 'stand down' conversations to confirm progress, immediate plans, and what to expect in the next few days. Any adjustments, fixes, or nits raised were acknowledge with a positive attitude and addressed quickly and to our level of satisfaction. The East End Designs team collaborated well with other professional trades (eg, electricians, pool fitters, plumber, hot tub installers, painters, etc.) where there was a focus on together getting the best outcome. With East End Designs, things can move fast so I recommend being present or having an architect or project manager do so."

"I called Steve the Handy Hubby on a Thursday with a somewhat of an emergency. The entry deck to the side entance of my rental home had rotted wood and needed repair pretty quick for safety reasons. Steve came and looked at it the same day, gave me an excellent price and came back the next day to do the job. Couldn't ask for anything more. Great experience!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

When building an outdoor or deck gate, it's crucial to use durable wood that can withstand harsh weather conditions like sunlight, rain, wind, and snow. Redwood and cedar are excellent choices as they naturally resist decay. While redwood is considered more elegant, cedar is a more affordable option. Other suitable woods include oak and pressure-treated pine, which is specifically treated to resist rot. Although some softwoods like pine are popular, untreated softwoods such as pine and spruce should generally be avoided for outdoor projects because they are susceptible to damage from water, rot, and the sun. Ultimately, it's wise to consider your local climate when selecting the right wood for your gate.

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Typically, most residential wooden decks are designed to support approximately 40 pounds per square foot, including the deck’s weight and any items placed on it. While this is fine for typical use, it is usually not enough to hold the weight of a hot tub filled with water and people. To safely support a hot tub, your wood deck will likely require reinforcement. Therefore, it’s best to have a contractor or a structural engineer assess it before hot tub installation.

Deck repairs cost around $800 to $3,500 . However, your cost depends on the type and severity of the repair, as well as the type of decking material you have. Other factors, like location and labor costs, impact the price, too. Boards and railings are the priciest parts of a deck to repair, while loose stairs are less expensive to fix.

The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.
