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."

"Overall Dino was a friendly and most importantly, knowledgeable handyman, who clearly deserves a 5 - star rating! All work was completed in an expeditious and effective manner. Dino installed 3 air conditioners, 2 solar post caps and completed several small jobs that needed repair. Suffice it to say I was very pleased with the quality of Dino s work. And his fee was fair. I highly recommend Dino to any individual in need of his services!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area. 

Because adding a deck will yield a higher property value, you may have higher insurance costs. It’s important to follow the codes and regulations set by your local and state governments, so your insurance rates can be properly calculated. You may need an insurance revaluation after your deck is completed. The best course of action is to speak with an insurance professional to understand how adding a deck will impact your home’s insurance costs before you begin.

Whether you need a permit depends on the deck design and local regulations. Most areas mandate a building permit if the deck is over a specific height or if it's attached to a pre-existing structure. Shorter, freestanding decks may not require a permit, but you should check with local zoning ordinances and your homeowners association for specifics.
