"The House Doctors LLC were great to work with! They replaced the old wooden boards on my deck, flower box, and window seat with new pressure-treated lumber. They kept me informed, answered all my questions, and stayed true to the original layout and design to retain the look that compliments my home. I highly recommend The House Doctors LLC and would happily hire them again!"

"We are very pleased with Jaime and the high quality of his work. We contacted him in August and made an appointment for an estimate. He arrived at the agreed time and he spent over an hour assessing our needs. For our deck work, he compiled all measurements and sketched the plan for the new steps paired with the modified layout. We initially thought we might need roofing shingle repairs but Jaime convinced us it was not needed. We scheduled Jaime to start on September 16, expecting the work to be done within 2 weeks. Jaime arrived promptly on the start date and was onsite every day until the work was completed, weather permitting. Jaime and his brother performed all work. Jaime brought all materials and tools to our house and cut all boards as needed onsite. All scrap was removed promptly. During the job activities, Jaime showed us other carpentry problems (rotting window frames and deck boards) which we had Jaime perform in addition to the original tasks. Jaime completed all work within the expected timeframe. Jaime is an extremely professional and skilled carpenter. We highly recommend him and won't hesitate to rehire him for future work."

"They stained my deck with a solid stain. They did an excellent job of taping-off and covering everything to insure that the stain did not end-up where was suppose to be. They cleaned-up after themselves. They were professional and quite. I under estimated the about of stain and coat that the deck needed, but they were great about it."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, deck pier blocks can be used as an alternative to traditional deck footings, especially for smaller or low-to-the-ground decks. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks do not require digging or pouring. However, their use is dependent on local building codes. Some areas, particularly those prone to high winds, earthquakes, or hurricanes, may not permit the use of deck pier blocks. It is essential to consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck project.

Spindles on a deck may also be called balusters or pickets. While not as important to the structural support of the deck as the rail posts, they play a critical role in ensuring the deck is safe to use by closing in large gaps in the railing. For this reason, balusters must be no more than 4 inches away from one another.

If you want to make a deck cleaner from products already in your home, there are various options. The most common is to use a gentle blend of 1 gallon of warm water and 2 tablespoons of ammonia-free dish soap. You can also mix water with distilled vinegar. Sprinkling on some baking soda can help to remove mold and mildew. You can add oxygen bleach (but never damaging chlorine bleach) to the water and ammonia-free dish soap solution for something a bit stronger. 

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. 

Both deck footings and deck posts help prop up your deck. However, footings are the bottommost parts of a deck that touch the ground. They’re usually made of concrete. Posts are pieces of wood that attach to the top of the footings with brackets. They run upwards and connect to the underside of your deck to support its weight.
