"The entire team was so professional, efficient, and super responsive to every need we had. They prioritized my needs and completely sanded, patched, and repainted my deck in two days and it looks fantastic. It’s evident they can do much more complicated work and I’ll be hiring them again. Could not recommend more."

"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!"

"So far it is going very well.  He called from the expressway to tell me he was 4 minutes away. He arrived ON TIME.  Got right to his work with his workers even tho he was a little incapacitated with a strained arm.  His workers went up on the roof and HE surveyed the newly replaced roof that caused all the stains that he was called to repair. Making sure no more water would enter before repairing damage.
The original contractor Superior Home Improvements failed  their contract in replacing  the old roof and installing new roof successfully.  NEVER CALL FOR THEIR SERVICES. LIARS, CHEATS, UNRELIABLE UNINSURED AND unreachable.
 Mr Brian Brill of Pride Painting and Spackling has  just that, PRIDE. !!.  I would and  will call him again for any other work needed here in our business.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Any wood deck provides some ventilation to the area below, as is the nature of that type of deck design. However, areas that experience excessive humidity and associated moisture benefit greatly from a dedicated ventilation system in the form of strip vents. This addition helps the various wood boards contract and expand evenly throughout the years and reduces the chances of twisting, warping, and buckling.

Yes, you can build a deck over your outdoor HVAC unit, but you need to leave at least 5 feet of vertical clearance above the unit. If you don’t want your deck to be that high off the ground, you could build a floating deck in another part of your yard—again, as long as you leave at least 4 feet of horizontal space between the deck and your AC unit.

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.

When installing deck boards, screws are generally a better option than nails. Screws offer superior holding strength over time, keeping the boards securely in place. In contrast, nails are more likely to pop out, which can create a tripping hazard. While you can use either, we recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws. To minimize the risk of cracking the wood, it's a good practice to drill small pilot holes before driving the screws into the deck joists.

Yes, deck pier blocks can be used as an alternative to traditional deck footings, especially for smaller or low-to-the-ground decks. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks do not require digging or pouring. However, their use is dependent on local building codes. Some areas, particularly those prone to high winds, earthquakes, or hurricanes, may not permit the use of deck pier blocks. It is essential to consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck project.
