"Great experience! The #1 thing these guys did right was customer service. If there were ever any concerns or changes with plans they were happy to make whatever we wanted happen. Had the fence for 6 months now, weathered through the winter and everything still looks and holds up fantastic!"

"I had The Settles company due to roofing jobs for me. The first one was residential complete roof replacement and also added skylights that was 15 years ago and it still looks great. The second job was on my A-frame cabin that sits on a hill we could not find anybody that wanted to tackle that project it was a complete tear off repair and replace a very. Difficult project. Between him and his son who works for him They completed the whole project and it was a very difficult project to do because the cabin sits on the steep hill and it s an A-frame roof. I highly recommend"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

When installing deck boards, screws are generally a better option than nails. Screws offer superior holding strength over time, keeping the boards securely in place. In contrast, nails are more likely to pop out, which can create a tripping hazard. While you can use either, we recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws. To minimize the risk of cracking the wood, it's a good practice to drill small pilot holes before driving the screws into the deck joists.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

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.

Yes, using sustainable materials and recycled composites offer green solutions.
