"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."

"A tree branch fell onto my roof and caused a hole. I didn't know about it until I started seeing water marks on my ceiling. I had my son look on the computer and he suggested Spot-On Home Improvements because they had some good reviews. They came out the next day or shortly after and got up on the roof. I knew the likeliness of needing an entirely new roof was good because it had been close to 20 years since the last one was put on and I have a lot of trees over my house. They said they could patch the hole, but they suggested a new roof was better as some shingles were pulling and warping. The price seemed decent (would have liked it lower) but their professionalism and their timing was what sold me. They got the roof done in 3 days and the clean-up was better than I could have imagined. You pay for what you get in this industry and I'm glad I went with them."

"Bob, the owner of the company is very knowledge, and very professional. He explains all the details very clearly, and very patiently, that makes me feel he is not a business man, but one of my relatives. His crew members are also very knowledge and professional. They keep everything well organized, and neat. They choose the most appropriate size of the materials and put them in the most appropriate place, make the siding looks nice, beautiful, very happy with that. In addition, the price is very fair. I would like to recommend this company to anyone who wants to do the siding for their house."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area. 

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

Pressure-treated decks last 15 to 20 years on average, but with proper maintenance, you could get 40 to 50 years of value from yours. Reseal your deck every one to two years, and replace old or rotted wood as soon as possible to avoid structural damage. Where you live plays a role in the lifespan of your deck. Intense sunlight, rainfall, wind, and hail can reduce the deck’s lifespan.
