"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Outstanding Work! We had Vargas Handyman & Home Improvements Inc. handle a major renovation project for our new brewery, Noble Experiment Brewing Company, and they exceeded every expectation from start to finish. Their team did everything — tile work, vinyl flooring, painting, deck repair — and every single job was done with precision, care, and pride. What really stood out was how easy they were to work with. Communication was always clear, they showed up when they said they would, and they finished everything on schedule. The attention to detail and craftsmanship were next-level — it’s rare to find a crew that’s both this skilled and this reliable. The transformation of our space is unbelievable, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. If you’re looking for a company that does top-quality work, stands by their word, and treats your project like their own, Vargas Handyman & Home Improvements is it. Highly recommended — they’re the real deal."

"The Graziano General Contracting did an outstanding job in painting my walls in my condominium. They advise you on the best paints to use to get an excellent. They make sure that any imperfections in the wall smooth over so the wall is perfect. They come early, work all day so that you get a completed job as fast as possible. The apartment looks so beautiful."

"They responded the same day after posting the request for estimate. They came by at the end of the day, and gave an estimate and said they could do it 5 days later. The price seemed fair at $1,700 for three men. They arrived at 8 and were done by about 4:00. The trees were dead and so could not be climbed. Jony figured out how to do this and brought the trees down safely. The tree trunks greater than 10 inches were stacked neatly. The rest was chipped onto the ground around the very large tree, which Jony scaled to cut down two large branches."

"I had my deck done two years ago but the original contractors that installed it did not install a staircase. Everything backyards came in and installed a wooden staircase with a lattice under the deck. They were very thorough and quick, the job was done within two days"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

A deck is typically attached to a house and accessed via the back door. Decks are usually constructed from wood or composite materials. A terrace, on the other hand, is a raised platform that can be attached to or detached from the house and is typically made from a hard-paved material, such as paving stones. Terraces can be built on the ground or on the roof of a home.

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.

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.

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.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
