"Littleâ  s did an amazing job on the exterior of my brick home, my sidewalks, porches and deck. They made everything that once looked old and worn look bright and brand new again! Both guys I spoke to today were very polite and easy going. The quote they gave me matched what the finished bill was. They are very affordable and reliable. I highly recommend them!"

"The service I received through Priority Maintenance, LLC was excellent. Evan Gault was prompt and professional. I received a call from him shortly after placing my request on ServiceMagic. He and his roofer were out the next day to provide an estimate and the job was completed 3 days after that! His price was reasonable and he explained everything very well. I would definately refer my friends to Evan Gault and Priority Maintenance, LLC. Thanks Evan!"

"Brandon did great work - he pressure washed my patio and deck steps, repaired my deck steps (new wood cut and installed), repaired patio cracks, sealed my patio, and painted my deck steps. He was communicative, very honest, completed the work in a timely fashion, with high quality results. Would absolutely recommend!"

"The project was impacted by the spate of rainy weather we had, but when the weather cleared up they were great about adjusting their schedules to accomodate mine. The deck looks great and I'm very happy with the service I received. And they painted my lattice air conditioner screen to match - so thoughtful!!!"

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.

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.

A deck that isn’t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don’t need deck stairs. Some don’t even require permits. Generally speaking, building a floating deck is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that’s connected to your home.

To flatten a cupped deck board, start by ensuring it’s dry. Then, try flipping the board over so the cupped side faces down and reattach it. If that’s not possible, you can use screws to pull it tighter to the joists or plane the edges slightly to reduce the cup. It’s best to replace severely cupped boards.

When building a deck, #2 grade lumber is a go-to for several reasons. It’s strong, budget-friendly, and works well for most framing and decking needs. But upgrading to #1 or Appearance Grade can give your deck that extra visual edge if you're after a cleaner, more polished look for high-visibility spots.
