"While replacing my roof he Payed attention to every detail. The work was finished on time. And the clean up was perfect like he was never even there. And pricing was very reasonable. As well as the detailing of my truck. After it was done, the truck was like I just picked it up from a dealership brand new. I would definitely refer him to anyone."

"Initially great to work with. We needed exterior painted/stained. Hired to start July 2016. Two sides of house in great shape to paint. Another side needed boards replaced. Front needed some caulking and a few boards replaced. Mark thought front would be okay after pressure wash. But boards were still bowed and popped. They did not fix or replace. And several other things were addressed. Another board should have been replaced or caulked the holes in it. It is peeling...They did not finish job completely. He agreed to come back here this spring because of conflicts last fall and mentioned personal or personnel issues. The carpenter may not have been still available . Have tried contacting them in April and now May 2017. We have left about five messages but no response. Am disappointed that even a courtesy response to our messages have not been made. Would appreciate a callback."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

Both aluminum and composite decking materials are environmentally friendly, with aluminum decking coming in as the most eco-friendly option. 

Though composite decking helps remove plastics from landfills, recycles wood, and lasts longer than traditional wood decks, it’s not recyclable and only lasts for 25 to 30 years on average. Aluminum can last well over 30 years and is almost always recyclable.

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.

Space deck handrail posts four to six feet apart. If the posts are more than six feet apart, the railing will be less able to withstand lateral forces and is more susceptible to breaking. Additionally, railing posts that are more than six feet apart may not be up to code, and you may face fines and be required to reinstall the posts to bring them up to code.

Your deck may pop, and your neighbor’s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it’s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another.
