"Chris was great and very communicative and friendly! He took care of all of my needs and is helping me with some other projects as well. We got the outlets changed out and he moved my toilet and reinstalled it with a new flange since the old one was rusted! Will keep doing business with him."

"John came out and after looking at our deck,gave us a quote to wash and stain the deck. We felt very comfortable with him and did not want a second opinion..we said yes..He came out with worker and power washed the deck. Amazing how clean it became. We waited for weather to be dry and yesterday his crew came and stained the deck. They were very professional and the deck looks great. We would recommend Campbell Painting to anyone ."

"Very happy with every phase of the project. The deck had patchy coating of weather worn stain. It's a big deck, about --' x ---', with wood railings, gates, stairs. Charlie Simmons and his crew did a great job. Charlie was very knowledgable about the best stain to use. If I used the same stain I had used, in a couple of years I would have to again strip the old stain before applying new. Charlie offered a stain that does not require that the previous stain coat be stripped before applying new.. I think this will save me a lot of effort and cost the next time I refinish the deck. His and his crew's attention to detail really helped. Their cleaning and stripping process got into all the nooks and crannies and they applied several layers of stain until saturation. They were prompt and careful to tarp adjoining bushes, house, and so on. The stain looks great, and from what I find from searching the net, there's a lot of satisfaction with how it holds up."

"He is very polite and courteous, very busy and works hard! but since he is very busy he can't always keep his appointments and pospone to another time. I am patient with him and except a later time. Would love to keep him, as hard workers are hard to find. As of now, I don't intend to change."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface 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 essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

PVC decking tends to be cooler than composite because the material is less dense and absorbs less heat. However, it depends on the deck’s color. A dark-colored PVC deck may run hotter than a light-colored composite deck. If you’re concerned about your deck getting too hot, it’s best to stick to a light color such as beige or gray.

The choice between Trex, a brand of composite decking, and PVC decking depends on your priorities regarding budget, appearance, and environmental impact. Both materials are durable and resistant to moisture and insects. Trex is often considered more eco-friendly because it contains recycled wood and plastic and is 25% recyclable, while PVC is fully synthetic and harder to recycle. Aesthetically, Trex is designed to look more like real wood, whereas PVC often has a glossier, more plastic-like finish. In terms of cost, Trex is typically less expensive than PVC.

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.
