"[no comments provided] At first Mr Normile had a difficult time getting the old deck paint off, and the new paint to adhere. We discussed the problem and solution. Mr Normile and I agreed . The prep was redone and paint applied with a heavy nap roller. The deck looks great now!"

"I could not be more pleased with the multiple tasks that Angie and Larry did for me at my home in Chillicothe, Ohio. Some of the things they did for me included building shelves in a kitchen pantry, installing a mirrored medicine cabinet, hanging a TV, and converting an old work table in the basement into a folding table for the laundry area. They were efficient, timely, and did excellent work. Their charges were more than reasonable. I would definitely contact them again for other projects and would not hesitate to recommend their services to family and friends."

My name is Joel Gruber, I’ve been in the construction field for 14 years. I recently quit my job of 6 years where I started as laborer and worked my way up to a project manager. And I just wanted to give working for myself a shot. I do everything construction/handyman related. No job is to big or to small. I’m a hard worker and show up when I say I will.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, using sustainable materials and recycled composites offer green solutions.

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.

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. 

A wood deck requires annual cleaning and regular inspections for loose or broken boards, nails, and screws. It should be refinished by applying a stain or sealer every two to three years to protect the wood from water damage, rot, mildew, and sun fading. The exact frequency can depend on the climate and the deck's exposure to sun and moisture. If your deck is painted, it will need repainting approximately every 10 years. Signs that your deck needs refinishing include faded, splintering, or warping boards.

It depends on the type of wood. The average cost to build a deck out of pressure-treated lumber is $15 to $25 per square foot, but more affordable varieties such as bamboo and cedar cost less at around $3 to $10 per square foot. However, when comparing the cost of vinyl decking versus wood decking, it’s important to also consider ongoing maintenance costs. For example, most woods require regular sealing to keep them protected against weather and rot.
