"Walt and Tammy worked quickly, quietly, and very efficiently together.  After viewing the projects and discussing my preferences, they shopped for materials, returned quickly, and worked their way through my to-do list. They cleaned up after each project and removed the trash.  Walt even devised and built a protective method to prevent future problems with the garage door sensors. Not having the knowledge, talent, time, patience, tools, to maintain my home as I like it, I'm delighted to have found Walt's Handyman on Angies List..  It's reassuring to know that the next time something breaks, wears out, or just plain quits, Walt's Handyman is just a phone call away."

"I can't say enough good things about the service provided by McKinley Landscaping. Gerald, the owner, was personally on-site about 80% of the time (9 day project) with his workers. We had to make a few adjustments to the scope of work but he handled it efficiently and painlessly. Gerald is a hands on contractor, listens to the client and pays attention to details. I can't believe how beautiful my yard is now, and how pleasant the process went. You will pay a little more for this quality of work...and it's worth every penny. By the way, I've also hired his crew to do the maintenance year round for a reasonable price. Thank you McKinley Landscaping!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor 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 crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

You can add a roof to most decks, but you need to have it inspected first. If your deck didn’t come with a roof initially, it may not be able to handle the weight without some structural changes. You can add additional supports to your existing deck to safely add a roof, and tying your deck’s roof to an exterior wall can help add some structural stability, but remember these aren’t DIY projects and need to be left to a pro. 

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.

Yes, Ipe is more expensive than Trex decking—both in terms of materials and installation (plus, Ipe trees are endangered). On average, Ipe decking costs $10 to $25 per square foot, while Trex decking costs $5 to $12 per square foot. Because Ipe is harder to work with, the price of installation is higher, too. For Ipe decking, you’ll pay between $20 and $45 per square foot for labor. However, with Trex decking, the labor costs range from $8 to $22 per square foot.
