"David and his team did a wonderful job building my deck and pergola as well as replacing a step on my front porch and adding railings. Their work is wonderful and they completed the work when they said they would. I highly recommend them and I will be hiring them again to seal the deck."

"Working with Morgan and his team was a very good experience. All the workers were very professional and went above and beyond to accommodate me. They painted the interior of my home including the ceilings and installed quarter round trim in all the rooms. They did a great job. You canâ t go wrong with 5 Star Painting."

"Chris and his crew did a fantastic job on our exterior house paint. They painted the house and deck as well as staining a deck, railings and a privacy fence. Very professional and friendly. Once they came out to give us a quote and we hired them, the project was completed very quickly. During the process they addressed any concerns we had and the final product turned out great. The price was awesome as well, we would definitely hire them again!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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. 

Materials for a second-story deck must be weather- and rot-resistant, though the specific choices will largely be determined by your budget and style preference. Pressure-treated wood is on the lower end of the price scale, but it can be customized and stained the way you like it. Composite, on the other hand, is pricier for installation and has fewer options for customization, but you’ll save money and time in the long run because it requires little maintenance.

In general, you need a footing at each corner of your deck, and within 8 feet of each other. So, how many you need depends on the size and shape of your deck, plus any local building codes. It also depends on factors like the load capacity of your soil and the weight of your deck. You can find a footing calculator online or contact a pro for support.

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.

Whether you need a permit depends on the deck design and local regulations. Most areas mandate a building permit if the deck is over a specific height or if it's attached to a pre-existing structure. Shorter, freestanding decks may not require a permit, but you should check with local zoning ordinances and your homeowners association for specifics.
