"We needed maintenance for our recently purchased home, which included cleanup of hedges, removal of dead and stray bushes, and mulch placed in all flower beds. The Services was quick, thorough, and professional. Formal contract signed in advance of work done. We will use them again. The only negative was the communication when actually trying to schedule the service."

Customers say: Quality work

"Can somebody enjoy and connect with the company of roofing personnel . I doubt. Many finish their work and vanish. What makes Steve & Sons different is the way they understand the needs of the customer. The team excel in meeting with the client ahead and in analyzing all the aspects of the work along with what can and cannot be expected . This gives a better idea of the work schedule and work details involved. They did a great job with our Asphalt shingle roof installation. We appreciate their work and dedication. Steve says he talks a lot , but thatâ s a good quality in this business to communicate things well. Thanks again."

"The work that Mark and his crew at MX did on our new deck was absolutely phenomenal! We could not be happoer with the investment we made. They paid attention to every detail of the project. They communicated during every setp of the way. I was very anxious when we began this project and was looking for a company that would work on the deck like if it was their own home, and that is exactly what they did. Our family could not be happier with the work they did. If I could give them more starts I would. We recently had family over to see the deck and they could not stop raving about how awesome it was. It was also done with a lot of thought on safey and secutiry. I highly recomment them for anyone looking to do work on their deck. Their work is amazing!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Rot loves moisture, so deck rot typically impacts the parts of a board that stay wet. This includes the underside of boards, in addition to support posts and joists. However, any part of a board can rot, given the right conditions. 

Both deck footings and deck posts help prop up your deck. However, footings are the bottommost parts of a deck that touch the ground. They’re usually made of concrete. Posts are pieces of wood that attach to the top of the footings with brackets. They run upwards and connect to the underside of your deck to support its weight.

PVC decking can get slippery when wet because it’s made from plastic. However, composite and wood decking can also be slippery when wet. It’s best to wear shoes with grippy soles when walking on a wet deck, no matter the material, and to be extra cautious not to slip and fall down.
