"I have hired the INEX crew to replace the floor and top of the railing on my deck. They did a great job. Gave me a very reasonable price. Showed up on time and finished job in one day. Ron takes great pride in his work and his costumers. They are coming back in few weeks to power wash and stain my deck. I am very happy with the results and definitely hire them again. I highly recommend this company. Great work guys !!! Thank you !!"

"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."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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."

"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

The best material for your deck depends on several factors, including your budget, location, aesthetic preferences, and the level of maintenance you’re willing to do. Wood decking, like redwood, ipe, cedar, and pine, lasts the longest, but it’s more expensive and requires more upkeep than composite and synthetic decking.

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.

There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won’t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct structures. A porch is a covered structure, usually attached to the front of a home, that offers protection from the elements. In contrast, a deck is an open, uncovered platform, often attached to the back or side of a home. Because porches have a roof, they typically require less maintenance than decks, but both features need regular cleaning and repairs to stay in good condition.
