"First class job! Very professional, neat and clean. On time and kept me fully appraised of the status of work progress. I am preparing my home for sale and Mr. Torres will be at the top of my list for any other projects. My wife loves the way the deck looks!"

"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."

"Raul and empire home improvement have done an excellent job on my cabinets, ceiling, painting and electrical work. They showed up as scheduled, gave quote in writing quickly, and arrived as promised and started working. I have tried few others but none compared to empire. The staff were polite and cleaned up after working. I did my research and this is the best renovation company in terms of quality of work, pricing, honesty and reliability. You will not be disappointed and will save yourself a lot of time, money and headaches with this company. Highly recommend."

"Juliano was very responsive and receptive of ideas I had for the project. The work done turned out the way I wanted and was able to do it within my price range. The only thing I would say needs improvement is the cleanup afterwards. There was more saw dust leftover than I anticipated. Regardless, I would recommend and would hire again for further projects."

Customers say: Quick response

"I rarely write reviews, but I had to take a moment to share just how incredible Dino was. He was truly extraordinary from start to finish, and I genuinely felt lucky to have found someone this talented, reliable, and kind. From the moment he arrived, it was clear I was dealing with a true professional. He was punctual, friendly, and came fully prepared with all the tools he might need for the job. What impressed me most wasn’t just his skills (which was top-tier), but his attitude. He was respectful of my space, super easy to communicate with, and genuinely enthusiastic about the work. His attention to detail was impeccable. I had just moved in and had a long list of tasks—mounting TVs, hanging shelves and curtain rods, assembling furniture—and Dino tackled every single one with skill, speed, and a can-do attitude. Nothing phased him. He was incredibly precise when it came to mounting the TVs, especially taking care to position them at the perfect eye level for comfort. He explained what he was doing throughout and offered thoughtful suggestions where it made sense. He really understood what I needed and delivered it perfectly. My home looks and functions so much better now, thanks to Dino’s incredible work. If you're on the fence about hiring a handyman who’s reliable, skilled, and takes pride in delivering top-notch results, look no further. Dino is the real deal. I’ll definitely be calling him again soon—and I’ve already recommended him to my brother and sister-in-law."

"Couldn't recommend more highly! I left my stormdoor slightly ajar during a windstorm and it was almost ripped off the hinges. Danian responded quickly, provided an estimate and had a new door sourced and installed in no time (he even came out after hours to deliver the door and took time and care to install it, despite the freezing weather, on a weekend). The cost was exactly as quoted and extremely reasonable, particularly given the quality of the work."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Most building codes list a minimum width of 36 inches and a maximum height of 7¾ inches. However, for the most comfort and spaciousness, you’ll want to aim for a width of at least 48 inches and a height of 7 inches. Again, it’s always a good idea to base your numbers off steps that you already use comfortably.

Yes, deck pier blocks can be used as an alternative to traditional deck footings, particularly for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks don’t require digging or pouring. However, their use is regulated by local building codes, and they may not be permitted in areas prone to high winds, earthquakes, or hurricanes. Always consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck project.

While you can use various materials like sand or even just soil, gravel is widely considered the best option to put under a deck. It provides excellent drainage and is resistant to water, fire, and pests. Gravel also helps anchor the soil to prevent erosion during heavy rain and acts as a built-in weed blocker, reducing regular upkeep. Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.

Decks require several inspections during and after the building process, but the specifics vary depending on where you live. Most areas mandate that decks comply with local building codes and safety regulations for the foundation, framing, and structure. Some pros recommend a footing inspection, which verifies the depth, width, and location of the various footings to ensure they offer enough foundational support.

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.
