"Hired G&R to fix up my deck, stain it, and paint a shed. The work involved replacing all of the horizontal hand rails, and tightening the floor boards. G&R stained the entire deck by hand (including the lattice work). Gave me a good price and stayed with that price. The deck was 35 years old, but you couldn't tell by looking at it now. My neighbor hired them to do some landscaping work after seeing them work on my property. Willie was easy to work with. Would definitely hired them again."

"I hired Palmieri back in May, after calling to receive my free estimate, i got my contract within the week and was able to have service by the following week. They end their season in November and I must say I am very pleased with the work the men provided on a weekly basis. I will definitely be continuing my services with them for the following season as well as snow removal for the winter season."

"Juan is super friendly and helpful. This is the 2nd time I've hired him. This time he replaced some Ventana, painted and installed a replacement storm door. His prices are reasonable. He's efficient, responsive and always cleans up when finished . Definitely would hire again."

"Raul and empire home improvement have done an excellent job on my cabinets, ceiling, painting and electrical work. They showed up as scheduled, gave quote in writing quickly, and arrived as promised and started working. I have tried few others but none compared to empire. The staff were polite and cleaned up after working. I did my research and this is the best renovation company in terms of quality of work, pricing, honesty and reliability. You will not be disappointed and will save yourself a lot of time, money and headaches with this company. Highly recommend."

"Great service. My windows were great afterwards. Great pricing. They are a great team. I would recommend to others. I live on the 4th floor apartment building and they did a great job. Personable. Also very welcoming and I definitely will be using this service next time I need windows cleaning. 5 stars! Also abided with the covid regulations, they both were wearing masks the whole service. Service was very good, I had 8 windows and they all look great!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

A deck doesn’t have to be perfectly level. Many pros even recommend a gentle slope to ensure proper drainage and increase longevity. The ideal gentle slope is about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per foot away from the property, leading water away from the home to prevent pooling and reduce the risk of damage. It also minimizes rot, mold, and other moisture-related problems. 

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

A ground-level deck is a great idea for an outdoor space because it’s easy to access and doesn't require stairs or railings. You can install a ground-level deck near your home or farther away on your property. You can place a ground-level deck around a pool, fire pit, or near a view such as a lake, pond, or area of trees.

Building a deck isn't too hard if you’re handy with carpentry, have the necessary tools, and are willing to put effort into it. However, other factors, such as plans, permits, and design, can be hard if you don’t have experience in those areas.

Note: You’ll need another person to help you build the deck (especially for framing and setting the beams). Building a deck yourself will be very difficult if you don’t have an extra set of hands to help.

Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.
