"Marco and Tico refinished our 1400 sq ft deck which had been painted with poor quality paint and was all flaking off. It had to be sanded down to bare wood. The crew from Magic Painting arrived and got to work. They were very professional and responsive to our questions They did lots of hand sanding to finish what the power sander left. After applying new stain, they hand wiped the whole surface to remove any residual stain. On the whole, they did a terrific job and I would hire them again."

"Adam with Elite Enclosures responded promptly with a quote for fence, gate & arbor replacement based on my texted dimensions & pictures. He got started right away & completed my project in 2 days - demo, haul-away & brand new fence, gate & arbor. The finished product exceeded expectations with great attention to detail & stellar craftsmanship. Adam was professional, responsive, great communication, efficient & skilled at his craft. I’d hire Elite Enclosures again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend."

"It took two times to get things completely done because a simple mistake was made during the original installation of the five posts. After a horrendous hassle with the company making the turned cedar posts (in PA), Bradley brought the last post to us for pre-installation painting. Because the hassle with the company resulted in our getting the complete set of posts free, we opted to have Bradley install the railing system to show our support of him.  I watched and learned some great lessons as he and his helper Bill made short work of the rails and balusters.  When done everything was cleaned up like they had never been here. The only reason "punctuality" is marked a B is he had to cancel the scheduled day for the second trip and showed up a bit late on the reschedule. I never knew why and figured it was probably none of my business.  I would rehire Happy Construction with no reservations.

"I am grateful beyond words for the amazing job the guys did! I called to inquire about their services on June 5. They came out that evening to take a look at the job and began work 2 days later. Travis and Dallas are both very hard working, creative, punctual, thorough, have great follow through, a strong work ethic and go above and beyond. I am especially grateful to them for their diligence in connecting with our neighbors, removing bothersome vegetation that had migrated into their yards and the way they continue to keep an eye out for that during their regular servicing of our yard. They clearly enjoy their work and can be counted on to complete any job/project in a timely manner. They have completed 2 big jobs for us since early June and will continue to care for our yard twice a month moving forward. I highly recommend Best Buds Lawn Care!"

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.

Yes, pressure washing a wood deck can be a good idea as it effectively lifts ingrained dirt, mold, and mildew, improving the deck's appearance and longevity. However, it must be done carefully, as it's easy to damage the wood, especially softwoods. To pressure wash safely, use a lower pressure setting and a wide, 40-degree fan pattern nozzle (often white). Keep the nozzle at least a foot away from the wood surface and maintain constant motion, avoiding hovering in one spot to prevent gouging.

Yes, transforming a deck into a sunroom is an absolute possibility. Building a sunroom involves framing in the deck area with walls, adding windows, and affixing a roof. This project is not an easy task, but it does provide a stylish addition to your house. Not all deck designs support this type of renovation project, so consult a professional deck builder before beginning.

No. In most cases, it’s not colder or freezing temperatures that affect decking materials but the amount of moisture that seeps into the materials as a result. For example, wood decking material is more likely to suffer from rot or decay when exposed to excess moisture from snow or ice. An extreme change in temperature can cause wood to expand or contract, but only if it’s not properly treated beforehand.

Because adding a deck will yield a higher property value, you may have higher insurance costs. It’s important to follow the codes and regulations set by your local and state governments, so your insurance rates can be properly calculated. You may need an insurance revaluation after your deck is completed. The best course of action is to speak with an insurance professional to understand how adding a deck will impact your home’s insurance costs before you begin.
